Upholstery welting, roping, trim separates the average from the unexpected. Standard
order furniture rarely showcases this type of detail. By looking for the details
and altering the trim, color combination and design the sofa, ottoman and draperies
have taken on a new personality moving from the back room into the formal sitting
room.

This top treatment certainly knows how to pay attention to detail. The top header
has been smocked (a long lost art) and mounted on a curved bowed rod, bouillon
on the bottom edge says everything but boring. This treatment would be perfect
in cotton, print, solid or exquisite as it is shown in silk

Banding is one of the least expensive methods of detailing. Banding works well
with table cloths, window treatments, bed skirts and some upholstery pieces.
The trick is not saying "yes" to your decorator when she suggests banding, the
secret is in the symmetry, color matching andEwell I can't tell you all my
secrets. This drapery is especially sweet because of the use of mini banding
and petite hand sewn bows. No one can pass by this drapery without delightful
comments. It just grabs you.
