Floral

From dainty prints to bold botanicals , floral fabrics are an extremely versatile choice. Use designs of traditional flowers to create a classic feminine scheme or try a tropical flower fabric for an eclectic, modern choice.

    1. What is the best way to incorporate floral upholstery into a room?

    Start with a single piece, such as a sofa or armchair, that will form the centrepiece. Choose a floral pattern that complements the room's existing colour palette and design theme. For a cohesive look, pick up colours from the floral pattern and use them in other elements like throw pillows, curtains, or rugs.


    Balance the floral piece with solid-coloured furnishings to avoid overwhelming the space.



    1. What should I consider when choosing a floral pattern size?

    The size of the room and the furniture piece should influence the scale of the floral pattern. A delicate, small-scale floral can be more appropriate in a more compact room or on a smaller piece of furniture. In contrast, larger spaces or statement pieces can handle striking, large-scale floral patterns. 


    Also, consider the impact you want to make: larger patterns often make a contemporary and bold statement, while smaller patterns can be more subtle and versatile.



    1. Which floral prints would you recommend for high-traffic areas?

    Opt for floral prints on durable fabrics like microfibre or tightly woven cotton blends. Darker backgrounds and smaller, busier patterns can help conceal wear and stains better than lighter or larger-scale prints. If wear and tear is a concern, also consider fabrics treated for stain resistance and those that are easy to clean.



    1. Are there any tips for sewing with floral upholstery fabric?

    When sewing with florals, it's important to pay attention to pattern placement. Make sure the pattern is aligned and centred, especially at the seams. Furthermore, consider the direction of the floral pattern and how it will look on the finished piece, particularly if the pattern is directional. 


    Use a sturdy needle and thread suitable for the fabric's weight to prevent breakage and ensure durable seams. It's also beneficial to pre-wash the fabric if it's prone to shrinking.



    1. How do I prevent my floral upholstery from fading?

    Avoid placing the furniture or upholstered piece in direct sunlight. If it must be near a window, consider using UV-blocking window treatments. Regularly rotating floral cushions helps to ensure even exposure to light. You can also use UV-protectant sprays if fading is a major concern.
