Design Obsession - The Chevron Pattern
Another find in Vegas!!!
The main buyer for Greenhouse Fabrics-
isn't she adorable?
(she reminds me of Ashley... hard to get out
of the motherly mode!)
I've been ordering from Greenhouse for years and was pleasantly
surprised to meet Leah as an attendee at our
Interior Design Society National Conference.
She had some awesome new fabric introductions and we shared
our like passion for the Chevron...

If you have been living under a "design" rock... here you go:
Chevron: I like to define the chevron pattern as...
"a splash of happiness". Because it is! Just lines and colors...
and make such a smile!
Some of you may have seen this pattern when Missoni came out with their
collection at Target back in the fall. Here are some of their
recent patterns. How great!
Just a splash of this fun "zig zag" pattern will recreate a whole room for you!
doesn't just have to be crisp... it can have some movement to it too!
Feeling brave?? (And very patient) Try out the chevron pattern on your WALLS!
Add interest to your wall through painting in a pattern!
(this would rather time consuming, maybe enlist some helpers)

Pillows are also an easy addition! There are thousands of places that sell
chevron pillows now, but check out Lacey Placey on Etsy.

absolutely gorgeous! (and inexpensive!)

She will custom make any size for you as well!
For all you new moms out there, she makes chevron burp clothes too!
Lots of bright and fun colors!
Another idea: You can zig zag above a mantel through art work.
I could even paint this ;)

If your other furniture pieces are simple and patternless, a chair like

Adding a zig zag rug to a room really changes the whole feel for the space.
It gives it a bit of a refreshed step and a definite contemporary ambiance.
