Everyone has favorites. The "go to" places or things that are always the right fit for their sensibilities. Designers are no different! If asked, they have a list of favorites for any category in design, whether it's their favorite show stopping sofas or their most coveted accessories.
Below is my first installment of a monthly "Fab 5 on Five", a compilation of my favorite things on the fifth of each month.
Installment: Modern Trim
 |
No. 1 Warm Leather Welt Cord by Holly Hunt: Can be used to edge pillows or in between seams on upholstery. What I think is so great about the leather is that it doesn't have to be rustic; it can feel tailored and modern.

 |
No. 2 Edgy Metal Bouillon Fringe by Kravet Couture: This trim is a modern interpretation of an old school style. Used along the bottom of a sofa gives a floating feel.
|
 |
| No. 3 Elegant Satin Tape Trim by Calvin Klein: The contrast of sheen and tasteful color is what I love about this trim. Added as a detail to anything in a master bedroom would be tranquil and stunning. |
 |
| No. 4 Fanciful Feather Fringe by Kravet Couture: This is definitely not for everyone but if you have a little edge to your taste this would be stunning as a top treatment on drapery. |
 |
| No. 5 Classic Embroidered Tape Trim by Samuel & Sons: The overall feel of the materials is casual but there is an elegance to the pattern that I love. The combination of textures is really special too. I think using this as a detail on drapery or on upholstery would be great. |

Great information. It makes me think bigger about some of the decorating I want to do.
