New to the Showroom in February

  By: Andrea Schuch

We just received this fabulous Beacon Hill book, Boutique Velvets, with an amazing faux fur in it. It's called Rosario Velvet and it's hand is so soft and luxurious. Made up of 61% viscose, 32% cotton and 7% polyester, it only comes in two colors: Lambswool and Noir shown here. Even though Beacon Hill is calling this a velvet, it is really  more of a faux fur, it could be thought of as a velvet where they left the nap very long. You can find this book in the Beacon Hill book cabinet with a light blue NEW tag on it! Make sure you check it out!

Another great new book to check out is Duralee's Metallic Collection of Chenilles. The best part of the patterns in this book is that they all exceed 50,000 double rubs in the Cotton Duck Wyzenbeek Method, they should be very durable to stand the test of time. They have several patterns varying from animal print to a traditional damask - all finished off with a metallic sheen. The metallic sheen makes all of these look so magnificent that you just have to touch and feel it's soft texture.

There's also this new book from Fabricut which has some amazing satin/silk look fabrics in it. It's called Carnivale. There are a few patterns shown in the photo to the right. Make sure you take a look when you are in the showroom next - it will be on the book wall near Vicki's desk. There are several different types of fabrics in it - ranging from drapery weight to multipurpose to upholstery, even sheers. The sheer that is in the book is great - it's just a solid but it has a wonderful, almost metallic sheen to it. Definately worth the look through the book!

We also received a few accessories in to the showroom like this set of leather books that is actually a box from Sarreid. You may not have seen it since it left the showroom within seconds of being out of it's shipping box.

Sarreid's Parchment Flat Box: 25403S


 There is also this parchement box which  has great details of iron forged trim and closure. It has lovely French caligraphy on the exterior. I was surprised by the weight when I picked it up because it is quite heavy but it comes fully lined with a natural leather parchment paper and ready to use!
