What's up with my attraction to the disparate work of both Suzanne Rheinstein and Kelly Wearstler? Who knows. One thing is clear: I like this pairing of Rheinstein's "Palace Garden" floral with Wearstler's geometric "Imperial Trellis."

For a long time now, I've wanted an old-school headboard like domino's, above, to use in a guest room. This may not be an option in 2008. But if I do continue using the "Trellis" chair in a bedroom, I think the Rheinstein floral would one day be a timeless compliment to it.
Hope this inspires you to put together a few unexpected pairings of your own.

courtney, loving this look! i'm actually thinking of doing a fabric headboard in the masterbedroom...was looking at the ballard design style that gwyneth used in apple's room (different fabric of course)...do you have any other suggestions of places to search for one?
THANKS!
courtney! Love that combination!! I only hope I can come up with such a strong combo for my living/dining room. Great job!
Kelly, Kristye,
Thanks!
Kristye, for other headboards try William Sonoma home (more expensive than Ballard though) or ask a North Carolina upholsterer for prices, just to compare. Good luck!
I LOVE the combo Courtney!!!
Thanks Ronda!
Thank you for this very inspiering post! Love the floral fabric on the pillow, and the fabric on the chair is stunning!

I'm so glad you liked it!
I think they look lovely together!
It is indeed a fabulous combination that brings out what is wonderful about each print with just enough of a hint of common colour (in the mustardy yellow) to make putting them together not altogether outlandish - well done!
P,
I like how you describe it! Thanks.
Surprisingly perfect.
You must do it! It looks wonderful together. As always, you have inspired me to get going on some projects at my house!
Sweet of you to say Katie, thanks :)
I couldn't agree more Courtney! A lovely pairing is right!!

I'm with everyone else- very pretty and striking combination. You've got a "strong" graphic fabric mixed with a "softer" print.
