At Frösö Handtryck, we offer a wide range of beautiful and unique textiles by the meter - perfect for those who want to create something personal and unique for the home. Whether you love to sew or just want to add something special to your decor, there are tons of creative possibilities! Here are five tips on how you can use our fabric on fabric to enhance your home:

 

1. customize curtains to match your style

Curtains can make a huge difference to a room and are one of the easiest projects to make from fabric. Choose a pattern that suits your home, perhaps a classic floral pattern like Rose and Lily or a playful and colorful pattern like Scallops in Moonlight and make curtains in the exact length you need. Curtains not only add a decorative touch, they can also help create a warm and inviting atmosphere. Our fabrics are available in cotton and linen and are ideal for curtains. Contact us for more information on custom-made curtains, we'll be happy to help you!

 

2. Create your own cushions and pillowcases

Another popular way to use fabric is to make your own cushions or cushion covers. With our patterned fabrics, you can create unique, handmade cushions that really stand out on your sofa or bed. Choose a color palette that matches the rest of the room, or go for a bold or colorful fabric that becomes the centerpiece of the room. What's more, cushions are the perfect way to revamp your home without having to make major changes.

3. Sew your own cushion or reupholster furniture

With a custom-made seat cushion or reupholstery of your chair cushions, you can quickly give your home a whole new feel. Our textiles are perfect for reupholstering furniture and other upholstery with moderate wear. You can also choose to match cushions to chairs and benches with the same pattern or mix and match for a playful look. By reupholstering your furniture, you can add a personal touch and create interiors that no one else has.

 

4. Create a unique wall hanging

A creative way to use fabric is to make a wall hanging. Choose a pattern you love and sew edges onto the fabric to create a beautiful wall hanging that you can easily hang on your wall. Wall hangings add texture and color to your walls, while adding a handmade and personal touch. In addition, textiles also have soundproofing properties. This solution is also a perfect alternative to traditional paintings and posters and with our textiles you can create something truly unique.

 

5. Set the table in style: sew your own tablecloths and napkins

Want to add a personal touch to your dinner table? With our beautiful fabrics, you can make your own tablecloths and napkins that will really impress your guests. Choose an elegant fabric for weddings, parties and fine dining, or something more playful and colorful for everyday use. Match the tablecloth with cushions and curtains to create a cohesive look. Self-sewn napkins are both eco-friendly and stylish, and a great way to elevate the table setting while reducing disposable products.

 

With these tips, we hope you've been inspired to create something unique with our designer fabrics by the meter. Whether you're a seasoned sewing expert or a beginner, our hand-printed fabrics will add a personal touch to your home and make a big difference in your living room, bedroom or kitchen. Explore our range of textile fabrics and let your creativity flow!
