I use Lewis and Sheron all the time and can completely vouch for their online customer service skills. That doesn’t mean I’m not totally jealous of all you lucky Atlanta readers that can visit L&S in person!
The easiest way to spruce up your home is to introduce a new fabric with some pillows, a little stool or bench or some new drapes. L&S is giving away another $100 to one of you readers. Here are some ideas to get you thinking about how you would use the gift card:
Josef Frank fabrics are bright, bold and…expensive.
Get the look for less with this cheery botanical.
I love the damask on these wing chairs. I think the less graphic, more washed out look is nice.
House Beautiful
Here’s an upholstery weight substitute fabric:
Tobi Fairley used this green geometric for these great wing backs:
Red on red trellis sort of reminds me of David Hick’s La Florentina.
I will never not love this little skirted zebra ottoman featured in Cottage Living and this fabric is a dead ringer:
Toile can be really sophisticated in the right space (like this Paris apt featured in Elle Decor, via Habitually Chic). This inexpensive toile is a good choice.
Paisley feels really fresh to me right now.
This red floral is an inexpensive Chiang Mai Dragon look-a-like.
I love arm chairs in a pretty suzani print.
Kravet’s Lutron in this mushroom and teal colorway is a more subdued way to take on a big pattern and some color.
This inky, dark print would be as kid and pet-friendly as it is stylish on a piece of furniture:
Contest closes Sunday, March 28 at midnight. The winner will be chosen at random and this post will be updated with the winner’s name.
Good luck!
***CONGRATULATIONS to Arlynn! We’ll be in touch with your gift certificate! Thanks!!***
I would love the Sabah Style, in the Campari to reupholster a chair I have been waiting to finish!

i was in to l&s a couple of weeks ago, and would use this wonderful marigold yellow ikat inspired fabric to make the perfect curtains to warm up my robin's egg blue bedroom. love, love, love l&s.
I love the Sudan fabric! It would make some great pillows, or maybe even a bench seat!
Just found their "Bokara" print the other day. Perfect splash of color for a bench in my otherwise beige family room!
The first project that comes to find is recovering two accent chairs. Ellora robins egg is great but all the damask fabrics are beautiful too.

I would absolutely love the Great Spot in Chartreuse multi (item #1084727)… it is perfect for my nursery design I'm working on! It would become a slipcover for an ottoman. Oh man. I don't know if I can wait until a winner is announced…
I have been wanting curtains made out of Matteo for so long!
I've been saving up for the Jewel Suzani to make curtains in our living room.
I love HL Brisbane in 421 Mauve. I adore hounds tooth and this is adorable. I would use it to recover my glider :)
Since my husband finally agreed we need curtains in the dining room to keep our family from being on display like caged animals, I would make curtains…. I mean have someone make curtains for me out of the Nasha Ikat fabric.
I would love to use the linen Gilda to recover a second-hand couch that I have been eying. Thanks for the post.
one of the ikat fabrics would be one i would try to convince my husband to let the living room sofa reupholstered in it. after seeing all the comments, i think my chances of convincing my husband are greater than winning the L & S giveaway (sigh)
Too many good ones to choose! I need a drapery fabric for our bedroom so this would help a lot. I'm in Atlanta, so if I win I would love to just browse.
any of those ikat's make my heart go pitter patter! i would love to make some couch pillows…long overdue for some color!
I've still got my eye on the Fioretto for some drapes.
My dining room needs drapes! I would use the Inner Circle fabric for this. What a great website and thanks for the giveaway!
Mayer Bk & Bianc in Java to make a headboard!
I would love to use the Calder fabric in Licorice to recover an ottoman I acquired free recently. I would love to test my home-upholstering skills on a free ottoman.
Ooh, so many favourites that I've made a list:
Linen 1011109 to slip cover my dining chairs
Script 357 – I'd frame and hang it
Velvet Milan 8712 or palermo – large cushions for my sofa
Carmen ikat in pale aqua – cover a long bench
Spicer hvy Basket in grey – a panel for a glass door
Thanks for sharing.

Me! Choose me!
We have a set of wingback chairs that I found for $50. Now, I need to slipcover them. I already ordered the sample Fabric Animal Motif (Item ID 1093932). Originally, I was going to upholster a folding screen (http://thelovelylifestyle.wordpress.com/2011/02/24/upholstered-folding-screen-fabric-inspriation/)with it but I realized that it would be AMAZING as a slipcover.
For sure the Fioretto Graphite to re-cover a thrift store chair ( a classic beauty) in my neutral taupe and ivory tone bedroom…love it!
I am torn between a charcoal houndstooth or a cheery floral. Maybe a little of each! Love L&S!
I'm itching to finally get some drapes on my windows. I love the large scale prints.
where do i begin….thank you for this great giveaway! dagmar, cross section, ellis, hl belame, fioretto, gadzooks, jazzy, rhomy for curtains in my office!
maybe wesley, birmingham, essential stripe, or mettalic stripe for my baby boys room!
The "Teen" fabric section was not what I thought it would be! I would choose Lattice and spruce up my couches with new pillow covers… It's in desperate need of an update!
I would love the Lovely/CIR fabric for my kid's playroom! Thanks for the great ideas!
Thanks for directing me to L&S, love their fabrics! I would love to recover our kitchen seats in an outdoor fabric like Santa Fe. And Pallas BZV7 would make gorgeous pillows for my tired looking sofa in the formal living room.
I absolutely adore the Savini fabric for my plain ol' ottoman. Thanks, you're awesome!
Linen tuscany for my dining room chairs.

Galaxy in "Spa." I need throw pillows!
Great examples! I'm really loving that last one- Jewel Tower. Such a good price too.
Very nice … I just took a look at their offerings and found something that would work great for some curtains I am needing – it was an orange floral – very nice indeed!!!
Hi! I would choose the Ellora fabric in Robin's Egg – I'm getting married this summer and moving to (of all places) Atlanta! I've just started putting together design boards for our new house and the Ellora would look fabulous on an existing chair I have with a more neutral couch! Pick me, please!
I would love an animal print like the fabric animal motif to reupholster a thrift store bench!

Thank you! :)
Looking at all that fabric overwhelms me much like when my mom used to let me go to the cereal aisle and pick out my own cereal…soooo many choices! I am gonna go with Style 20864 (why doesn't it have a fabulous name like "Hicks' Sharpie Paisley"?)…a spa colored fabric with big black on cream paisleys…L-O-V-E…I want to go dramatic in our master bedroom and paint the walls a charcoal and this fabric would make great euro pillows on the bed

Wow, they have an amazing selection for an online shop! My prize would go towards some trim for a roman shade project I have in the works!! Thanks for all your inspiration Jenny :)
Love L&S and I need some fabric for an ottoman reupholster! Too many perfect choices…leaning towards the zebra!
I really like the Invigorate Lacquer fabric, it would make some nice curtains for my breakfast area.
Oh I've coveting the Staceage Silks for like ever! The buckhead is my favorite.
Green Geometric for sure: Lattice 25244. I would cover the sad chair that got left out when the fabric company discountinued the white cotton duck I used on his friend.
thanks for the great giveaway! i'm helping a friend redo her office and the chiang mai look-alike fabric would be perfect!
I love L&S!! I've been there a few times and it is amazing! I really don't know what I would choose! So many good things, but I do want to slip-cover two wingback chairs in a linen fabric, so that's probably what I would pick. THANKS!
They are all so beautiful! I could definitely use some fun fabric to brighten my house up.
