Paisley Damask
Should I go back to school for textile design?
Hi, I currently work in product development, I really enjoy using Photoshop and Illustrator to make patterns for our textiles at work. However, I feel limited in what I can do (damask, paisleys,etc). I really enjoy working with designing the prints for our textiles. My question is, I've been out of school for almost a year and half now. I majored in Fashion Design and Marketing in college, but should I go back to school for textile design? If so, what schools offer it? SCAD in Atlanta? Would I go for grad school (I don't feel like I have the technical knowledge of fiber content, etc)
Any feedback will be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!
yes you should

How to Look For a Custom Slipcover
If you want to give your furniture a new look without having to replace them with new ones then slip covers are the ideal option. Slip covers are a practical and inexpensive way of adding a new dimension and personality to furniture. With the help of slipcovers you can let your personality reflect in the decor of your house.
Why would you want to let go of a perfectly good piece of furniture just because it is looking a tad old or has upholstery that's getting a little frayed? Instead of spending a huge amount on getting these replaced, use a fraction of it and get a slipcover to change the overall appearance of your room.
We all have a piece of furniture that we feel the most comfortable in. It could be an old recliner or the wing chair sitting in the den. And every time the thought of having to replace it because the piece is getting really old and not complementing your room anymore makes you shudder. You can now have acustom slipcover for any piece of furniture so that they blend with the overall décor of your room.
Rightfully called "clothes for furniture", you can use these slip covers to either redo a single furniture piece or go the whole nine yards and get them for all your pieces. Now changing the look of any room by simply adding slipcovers becomes so much easier, faster, economical and convenient.
There is a vast range of fabrics that you can choose from for a custom slipcover. From solids to patterns in stripes, florals, paisleys, geometric...you have a pattern in mind and you can get fabric to get a slipcover made from that. There are a number of fabrics also that you can play around with. Choose from cotton, canvas, suede, denim, faux leather, chenille, damask...the list is endless.
In order to get the right fabric and a slipcover that lasts a really long time you should fist see the type of traffic that piece of furniture is going to see. For family rooms and kids rooms, fabrics that are tough such as canvas and denim are better suited while for a home office or the lounge you can choose from the suedes, silks etc.
It is also very important to make sure that the slip cover fits your furniture perfectly. If you have regular sized furniture then getting a ready to use slipcover becomes easy. In case your furniture is larger or smaller than the regular size, do not despair. Most of the home improvement stores or retailers who make slip covers have provision to a custom slipcover according to your requirement. You can also look at slipcover makers online and see the different styles and patterns that they have in store. You can get a custom slip coverfrom these manufacturers by simply sending your furniture measurements. The customized slipcovers will be delivered at your door step. The best part is that some of these slip cover manufacturers also give guarantees on the fabric or a 30 day money back guarantee if you are not satisfied with your product.
