sometimes it’s just tricky to find the fabrics you have in your head when it comes to decorating. i often wish i could design my own patterns from my imagination, or bring back to life some of the gorgeous vintage prints they used to make. it’s kind of a lost art i often imagine recreating — i miss those cool floral prints of the 50’s and 60’s, but Shutterfly actually gave me the opportunity to do just that. not only did i get to do some spring cleaning and clear out my closet of some vintage skirts i treasure, but no longer wear, but i was able to photograph the fabrics, upload them to Shutterfly’s personalized home décor product site and using their simple tools i got really creative and made my own bedding from the prints. you can literally recreate a pattern from a coveted old skirt and turn it into a pillow with Shutterfly. my favorite skirt may no longer fit, but repurposed, a pillow is one size fits all and gives your favorite prints a whole new life.
Shutterfly’s personalized home décor products are stylish, well made and unexpected. they add unique texture, character and personality to any space, and you can customize them any way you like. you can easily take any pattern you have and turn it into fabric or a print. i made pillows, shams and duvet cover — even journals. i was also pleasantly surprised at the thread count on the shams and duvet — super soft and i’m a stickler for soft bedding. you can get really creative with Shutterfly’s home decor personalization, and i have to say, seeing your creation come to life is really quite rewarding and a special part of the decorating process. go make something all your own!
