Fabrics to FALL in love with right now!!

The weather is starting to cool down, and that only means one thing… Fall is on the way!! As sad as we are to say goodbye to summer, we can’t help but be excited about FALL! Soon we’ll be swapping out linen for velvet, draping fur throws on our favorite reading chairs, and changing out our flip flops and sundresses for sweaters, scarves and boots! Here at Triad, we LOVE all seasons, but fall is the time when fabrics of all sorts get to make their debut again!! We add new fabric weekly, so keep an eye out for all the fabrics that we’ll be adding to our aisles, we’re sure you’ll FALL in love with every single one!

Here are some TO DIE FOR fabrics we have in stock right now!!

Harmony Tapestry in Midnight, $29.95 a yard. Triad Plus Fabrics. We just ADORE this colorful tapestry! It would make a statement any way you “cut it”! We started dreaming of it as a wingback chair with a funky piping. Then, we saw this “MUST HAVE bag for Fall 2012″ at Glamour.com, in an almost-twin-tapestry!! We were so excited, what a cute handbag our tapestry would make! And for a WHOLE LOT CHEAPER than this Rag and Bone one:

Ombre – Making a Splash Everywhere!

Ombre is a french adjective indicating a gradation of color. This color trend is everywhere, from fashion, to hair to home decor and even food!! Take a look at some of these fun uses for this very fun color play!

Some of these ombre trends may seem a little stark or too much of a commitment. A great way to add some ombre into your world is to add some pieces into your home with the ombre look to them! Here a few great Ombre DIY projects that won’t break your budget or force you to dye your hair!

Click here to get DIY instructions for this really cool ombre chair.

You could give any cotton light colored curtain panels an ombre effect by dip-dyeing gradually into your desired color.

Check out these other DIY ombre projects that go into detail with how to dye this way: (Doesn’t it feel a little bit like dyeing easter eggs?!)

Here at Triad, we have all of your fabric needs for your next ombre DIY project! Stop by our store in the Sacramento area, and see our huge collection of drapery weight fabrics and pillow forms. We have a few linens that would be perfect for these projects!
