Schumacher Knock Off Fabric

May 1, 2015 by Bee Filed Under: craft, Decor Sources, DIY, furniture, home decorating, repurpose, Tutorials

PaintedFabric9I have loved any and all Schumacher fabrics for as long as I can remember! I don’t, however, own any of them… womp womp.  The price for one yard is usually enough to feed my family for a month… ok maybe not that high, but you get the point.

There are several that are my faves…

Such a fun and easy project- I decided to just make you a little video tutorial- and for instructions on recovering, you can follow the tutorial here.

Hope y’all are having a wonderful day!

    What a brilliant idea! I absolutely love how this turned out! I am totally inspired to try coloring my own fabric now – I just have to find the perfect pattern!
