Peter Dunham Look Alike

It is no secret my love affair for Peter Dunham's fig fabric above.  I talked about it here and here.  For 100 + a yard, it will stay remain just an affair.  I just can't bring myself to buy fabric that expensive when in a the next few years it will be covered with juice and slobber. 

There is no true inexpensive replacement to fill the shoes of Peter's Fig fabric, but I did happen to run across the below print in a linen/cotton blend for $27 a yard!!! That's right folks.  A lot more reasonable.  The scale is actually similar.  The fabric below from Spoonflower is a bit zoomed in.

Pretty similar right?

Skirted Table Part: 2

Last week I posted about my undying love for Peter Dunham's Fig fabric spotted on the above skirted table.  I then shared the picture below of our skirted table.  I would give up a  finger for a Fig leaf skirted table cloth!

Days after that post, I was looking at the picture of our table thinking two things.

1. The vignette doesn't feel balanced

2.  I love that large silver lamp in the House Beautiful shoot.

It was time to start shopping around the house to perfect this little space.  I had an over scale silver lamp in the guest room that I thought might give the same effect as the House Beautiful picture.  I then added another one of my house plants to the right to balance the height on both sides.  Yes, I'm a crazy plant lady!  I love the look of a green corner with Spring coming. 

Here is the  picture before a few changes....

After a few changes...

Doesn't the lamp look just like the House Beautiful shot?!  I am happy with the little changes and the best part is it was free!

Be Well,

Peter Dunham. A Girl Can Dream.

If I lived in a fabric store and the store was on fire and I could only take one fabric it would be Fig Leaf by Peter Dunham.  I have coveted this fabric for years. That's right, years!  I love the scale.  I love the colors.  I love the simplicity yet boldness of the fabric.  I could go on and on but here are some rooms where you can spot a bit or a lot of the print.

 When House Beautiful did  THIS spread with Peter Dunham and used Fig Leaf in the room I was thrilled. I then saw they used the fabric on a decorator's table.

Isn't the room amazing by the way?! All the layers and texture. Anyway, it made me think of our decorator's table in our living room.

If I had 150 bucks to spend per yard on fabric, I would definitely change our jute table cloth for one like this....

A GIRL CAN DREAM.
