This week I made some beautiful trimmed roman shades! A lot of people ask me about linen recommendations. Here is a fabric that is actually NOT linen, but it looks a lot like linen and it works nicely for roman shades. Linen blends and 100% linen fabrics come in many different weights, so it's really hard to know if a linen will work well for my shades. I've seen very light weight linen, loose weave linen and thicker linens. Some linen has texture and some does not. It's really hard to tell without seeing it in person. But this fabric (pictured below) is polyester but it has that linen look. It says "lightweight" on the description online but it's actually a nice medium weight. Paired with some trim, this solid fabric will compliment many styles and decor. It works nicely in a room that uses pattern in different places like rugs or furniture! The trim adds just enough "pop" and ties the room together. This fabric is by Premier Prints and can be found online on fabric.com and other sites! It's called Jackson Macon Caramel Tan. It also comes in other colors.
