Ivanka Trump grew up in beautiful homes and obviously has a love for fabric and color. She transformed one of her employee's apartment into a more pleasant quad to inhabit.

The furniture was rearranged to show the fireplace, and bright fabrics and color brought this room to life.

The animal prints (not real furs and skins!), pink, silver and gold color makes an energetic room. Notice the curtain in the kitchen area? Good idea to cover that when a guest arrives and dishes in the sink.

Watch how some color changes the bed area into something chic immediately. Don't be afraid of color. Look at our art tile site and look at fabric patterns we develop to match any tile, paint or anything existing item in your biosphere. That is what I like about the apple paint Ivanka used, it matches exactly.

No help from Ivanka? We're in the process of adding matching paint to our fabric site. Ralph Lauren sticks to subdued colors so we are changing our colors to match his paint. Only one done so far and 200 to go. All fabrics on our site are available for $35 a yard for any patterns.

Our goal is to place designs in stores. Have you gone into J.C.Penny lately and noticed that the designs are mostly styles that fit the country it's production was out-sourced too? That is appropriate, also, as our country itself is a collection of all cultures! But, those of us who enjoy southwestern, New England, hip-hop, emo, and other styles would like to be able to find OUR style in stores in America now, because it's time for the people in the U.S.A. to wear clothes, sleep on sheets, and eat on dishes that create our "home" emotion.

Mission 1: Designs that have coordinates, whether articles of clothing, furniture, linens or dishes, harmonizing in color, design element, material, or style, designed to be worn or used together.

Mission 2: Connection between fabric designers and digital textile print.

Mission 3:Produce fabric coordinates for existing products.

This is called the most beautiful dining room in the world, and it's location is the monastery on Mount Athos in Greece.

Are you wondering how to add some of this beauty to your own home? It's not impossible or difficult if you know how to get started. Murals can be stenciled but start with a small project, perhaps something in the kitchen.

You can easily choose and purchase stencils on many sites, but why not create your own?

1. Print the design on paper six times.

2. Transfer that to mylar plastic sheets by placing the mylar over one print. Use an exacto knife to start removing sections that don't connect.

3. Take the first stencil and use it on the next print, that way you know your doing it perfectly.

4. Repeat that process until every tiny area is removed in the design.

4. With stencil creams apply than paint stencil by stencil on your wall. Be sure and let it dry before doing the second layer to prevent smudges.

You'll end up with a lovely design.

Practice on paper first.

We'll add all these stencil creams to our craft supply site, most craft supply stores only have a few colors available.
