les indiennes

I am pretty in love with everything Les Indiennes. Founded by Mary Mulcahy in 2002, the company creates hand blocked textiles, wallpaper and home linens. Created in India using a traditional kalamkari process, the patterns are created using all natural dyes on a simple cream background of organic cotton. Below are a few favorites although I have so many more. Happy Monday!

leather

I wouldn't say I am a huge fan of leather as an interior textile but I do love a good chestnut, perfectly tan leather chair or accent piece like a headboard. The color combined with the smooth rich texture of leather adds warmth and interest to any room and can work equally well with warm or cool tones. I would love to replace our living room side chairs with two vintage, chestnut leather safari style chairs and have been searching like mad on places like Craigslist, Etsy, Chairish and Ebay. See below for a collection of favorite inspiration images.
