fashion friday: don’t be so drab.

Fall Color

Fall is my absolute favorite season, but now that almost all of the leaves have fallen, November brings on the beginnings of dreary weather.  I like to turn up the color as the weather gets colder.  It just makes me happy.  I’m not sure why women use the fall as an excuse to get as dark and drab as possible.  I say turn it up!  Let’s get loud, ladies!

I have received a few requests about the bamboo chairs on our porch.  Here is what they looked like when I received them.  E actually thought that I chose this fabric.  Obviously, we need to have a lesson on 70’s decor.

Here they are now in Trina Turk’s Trellis fabric.

And while it took what seems like forever to build, I couldn’t be happier with the end results.  It’s funny, before finding GFL, I had initially hired someone else, and ultimately fired him two weeks in due to his lack of creativity.  So glad that I found them!  Jeff and Lance were amazing to work with and really “went” with my crazy ideas..
