Marimekko Fabric
Thursday, February 26, 2009 by Brieanna S.
I love these Marimekko fabrics and I'd love to have one of these patterns in my living room somewhere. Problem is, the patterns are all very large in scale so they wouldn't do well for pillows. I have been considering adding a bold patterned curtain to my LR windows so one of these prints could work. It's just that they're over $50 per yard and I need 5 1/2 yards. YIKES! Not happening. The other option is to get a single yard of my favorite pattern and stretch it over a canvas. This is a really popular way of displaying Marimekko fabrics, probably because they're so pricey (and they make great art). Hmm...what to do what to do....
I am really going to enjoy going to one of the Marimekko Concept stores when we go to NYC in April.
awww, when are you going to NYC? Fernando and I are going April 4 - 8th for his spring break!
Oh my goodness that's crazy! We're going to NYC March 28th - April 5th for Dave's spring break too. So where are you staying, what are you going to be up to?? We are staying in Chelsea in some apartment we found on Craigslist. *x's fingers.* We have never been to NYC before and decided we need to take some trips before we start a fam. Um, whenever that is.
:o)
we are staying with my Uncle who has a great place in Greenwich Village! I'm not sure exactly all we're going to do...but top of my list - seeing 'In the Heights' on broadway, and just taking in all the sights...oh! and walking across the Brooklyn Bridge!
Maybe we'll see each other on our overlap day?!
