Fresh Flowers!

In the May issue of elle décor, we were smitten with the feature "A Budding Romance" about the ever-fresh and ever-inspiring forms of flowers in fabrics and fashion.  So, we did a little flora search of our own and came across some beautiful images...

We are of course inspired to don a hint of flowers in our Spring and Summer fashions, but since our focus tends to be all things interior, we especially wanted to share with you some fresh flower interpretations in home design...

You too can update your vintage chairs with a fresh floral print. We have high-end upholstery fabrics, including gorgeous toiles, starting at just $10/yard at Post & Gray...

 

 

Or, give your gallery walls a lift with beautiful floral art, like this one at Post & Gray...

 

 

Here's an amazing gallery wall worthy of imitation...

...and flower art that stands alone...

Notice the beautiful yellow upholstered sofa.  We have custom upholstery options for sofas and chairs, some are ready in just 10 days...and you're in luck because we are having our May WAREHOUSE WEEKEND at P&G this Friday through Sunday, May 3-5. 

...You can also add a breath of fresh flowers with floral draperies to get this look...

We always have low, low prices on designer draperies and have custom drapery options as well. 

 

We also have wallcovering selections via our in-house design studio, KVID. Peruse through books of wallcoverings and select just the right fit for your home interiors.  Here are some papers we found this week that tell our fresh flower story beautifully...

Designer Feature: Mary McDonald

Since acclaimed Interior Designer Mary McDonald is the keynote speaker at this week's Mint Museum Room to Bloom symposium right here in Charlotte, we thought it was time to collect some inspirational design images of her work. 

Of course as we find swoon-worthy interiors, we like to show our clients how to "Get the Look" (for less).  Here's a few images that caught our attention as of late, all designed by Mary McDonald. ...

Aahh!! Restful, right? There's something about the blues.  And guess what? We have gorgeous draperies, mirrors, velvet ottomans, custom headboards and a pair of blue garden stools right here at Post & Gray. Take a peek at some of our blues...

... and how about rich, luxurious neutrals?  ...

 

 

...We especially love neutrals with lots of layers and great textures!...

 

 

Check-out those luxe upholstered headboards. We have custom headboards at P&G available for order in many different styles, sizes and finish details. We also have fabric, fabric, fabric, starting at just $10/yard.

 

 

We think texture is essential to any great space.  Here's one more lovely image of inspiration via Mary McDonald which encapsulates this philosophy ...

 

 

We love this fresh look with textured walls, lots of bright white and touches of gold in the mirror and pendant light.  See our take on Gold ...And take a look at a brand new chic white dresser (just in this past week), perfect for re-creating the look above...

 

 

 

...We are also fans of Mary McDonald's exquisite textiles.  We love the graphic and beautiful patterns...

 
You're sure to find some of her designs in our stacks of fabrics and also in the design studio of our own Kelley Vieregg (KVID).  Visit Kelley's new website to view her portfolio and learn about the exceptional design services available from KVID. 

Come visit us this week and weekend to see even more new and fabulous finds.

We always have fresh ideas for styling your home.
