Rounding out my week of wonderful guest posts by talented and fun fellow bloggers, is Carrie from Hazardous Design. I have enjoyed watching the transformation of her charming home, project by project. When you pay Hazardous Design a visit, be sure to check out the stunning powder room remodel that she and her husband did, as well as checking out their current family room project among others. The girl has a great eye.....
Hello Room Rx readers! I'm Carrie from Hazardous Design. My husband and I are in the middle of remodeling our New England home located on Hazard Ave. Unfortunately for me, most of our renovation budget has to go towards boring projects like a new roof or to reinforce the rafters in our garage, but every once in a while I get to splurge on fun wallcovering or fabrics for the rooms we renovate. So when Cathy invited me to write a guest post for her "Fresh Fabric Friday" series, I knew exactly what my subject would be...the fresh floral fabrics of Designer's Guild. Our house was built in the 1800's, so when decorating, I've been trying really hard to keep our home's historic past in mind without making it look like a museum. I think these florals would be a great way to bring a little bit of old and new into our house.

These fabrics are a bit over the top, so a little would go a long way.

Great post Carrie. I love the DG fabrics although I don't think I would have said the same 2 years ago. I'm especially crazy about the Mariedal fabric.
I prefer the more muted florals when it comes to larger patterns. They are all very pretty - I am leaning towards Mariedal.
This is such a fun post!!! I think I usually tend to lean toward the "safe" side with fabrics, but these super busy ones look so fabulous! You may have just converted me to the fun side!
Hey, Carrie! Oooh, I really like that first one that's all shades of gray. I love that you are trying to keep some of that history in your home...makes me think of good old Abe Lincoln;) It was definitely fun guest posting here this week, wasn't it?!
Hi Cathy! Thanks again for having me over. Hope you are having a fab vacation!
Love them! Especially the yellow floral fabric. These would be perfect in Carrie's home. This was a fun week of posts, Cathy. Hope you had a great vacation.
