Yes, I admit it's a touch (maybe even more than a touch) early to be thinking about Fall. But I can't help but be excited for one of my most favorites times of year.
Do you ever get a particular vision for a season when thinking of your decor? This year, when I picture my "Fall lineup," I think of black and white. Yesterday, I decided to get the ball rolling with this creation:
Simple, crisp, even stark. I love the contrasts.
The texture of the fabric is great as well, and I love the frayed-edge look. The beautiful old metal emboidery hoop was in a craft stash given to me by my husband's grandmother.
The blackbird is made of an old woven wallpaper sample. I traced the silhouette from a pretty crow image from The Graphics Fairy.
Believe it or not, Fall is on its way!
