Hello! Last week I shared with you some of my go-to places for finding inexpensive, attractive home decor fabric (if you missed it you can find it, Here)! As promised, this week I am back with a comprehensive list of home decor projects you can create with FABRIC!
If you are not a sew-er that’s okay many of these projects do not require sewing and the one’s that do I made sure the tutorials were very thorough and easy to follow.
So let’s begin!!
21 Home Decor Projects Made with Fabric
1. Roman Shades- I found this tutorial for roman shades several years ago, before I had a blog. When we first moved into our home and I was trying to make the cherry cabinets work. I thought maybe some light colored window fabric shades would balance the dark wood cabinets out nicely.
I used this tutorial and the roman shades turned out great! However, I ended up not liking them for the space (and painting the cabinets white) and gave them to a friend but I would definitely use the tutorial again if I ever had a space that calls for roman shades.

Just purchase a frame with a mat included (you can find them for under $10 at JoAnn Fabrics) and then add your choice of fabric. Use spray adhesive or fabric glue to adhere the fabric to the frame’s backing and voila!
Thank you for posting this wonderful compendium of fabric tutorials. I can’t wait to try several of them, particularly the framed fabric panels. We are moving to a new house and I need some new artwork – – – this will be very beautiful and thrifty. I think purchasing fat quarters in multiple patterns of the same color will look great.
Thanks so much for taking the time to let me know you enjoyed the post! Made my day!:-) Fat quarters will work perfectly the framed fabric panels!:-)
#13 would be perfect for music books and another one for school books and assignments. It looks kind of tricky. Wish we could get together and brainstorm through the project together, but there are too many states between us. 🙂
That would be SO fun, Amy! I’ll always remember us working on Alina’s room together (racking our brains trying to figure out how to space the A, B, C’s)! 🙂
Wow I would have never thought of making some of these. Now that I can sew a straight line, some of these projects are actually do-able! Thanks for the excellent roundup Tamara!
I hope it comes in handy, Jennifer!!:-)
Loving all of the fabric accents! I think with all of the painting and makeovers that everyone shares, we sometimes forget how impactful just a small piece of fabric can be in a space! Visiting from Inspire Me Monday, and I am inspired!
It’s so true, Susan! Fabric came make all the difference! Thank you for coming by today!!:-)
A fabric DIY for all of the teachers out there. Both my husband and I taught middle and high school students. As many people hear how expensive it is to “out fit” a classroom we did our best to go cheap; since it is out of our pocket. We would buy fabric for our bulletin boards. It brought color into the room and was recyclable. Instead of throwing the construction paper away after one use, we would put the fabric up and every couple of weeks change it out. We would wait for that first student to notice the change. If we were fortunate enough we could sometimes find material that went along with what was being studied.

That’s a great tip, Marie! Thanks for sharing!!
Excellent !. I am sure the fabric exchange has so many choices of fabric for this kind of project.
Excellent! Loving all of the fabric accents. Your Designs are very trendy and very attractive. I really liked those curtains, Bedsheets, and the other stuff as well. It looks so colorful and so cool. Thank you for sharing such great designs for a perfect home decor. Keep Posting.
