Our NEW Design Glossary, Design Talk, is full of helpful terms to know while you decorate your home!
Tufting involves thick yarns sticking out through a woven base for a frayed and raised design.
Seersucker fabric is woven with threads at different tensions, leading to mixed ruffled textures.
Sateen weaves have a smooth sheen, as each thread tightly weaves under three and over one.
Flanged edge pillows are sealed with decorative flaps around the edge, similar to ravioli!
Coastal styles give the feeling of laying by the beach, with patterns of sandy beiges and ocean-like blues.
Botanical designs feature everything from the garden, from floral motifs to illustrations of crisp leaves and thriving plant life.
Paisley patterns involve ornamental tear-drops in symmetrical styles, with unique curves and complex colours.
