F. Schumacher's AU NATUREL COLLECTION 2011

Early this summer we received the trim books and fabric/wallcovering books from Schumacher's Au Naturel Collection and it is pure subtle elegance. Full of tonal patterns and textures, and all usable in SO many different applications.

Our gorgeous rep brought it to our office yesterday, and it is FANTASTIC.  I might have one picture to show, as I don't think it's on-line yet, but its very Marrrrtyn.... (if you watch MDD).... very Alahammbra meets Beverly Hills meets Morocco,  dahling.... 

BUT IN A GOOD WAY.
