Themed Rooms Using Coca Cola Fabric

By Marla Mills


For homeowners planning to remodel one or two rooms, but haven't decided on a theme or colors, coca-cola themes are a fun way to update the look and feel of a home. Those who already have a country theme, will find this a fun way to update, while still being able to use many of the same items currently in use. It's also a great way to decorate kitchens, bathrooms and even living rooms. Accessories such as handmade curtains, pillows, and even pictures, using coca cola fabric, can be used to decorate and create the perfect vintage or modern decor.

When choosing this theme think about the fact there are different eras that can be employed, such as vintage and modern. Materials can generally be found in the same, vintage or modern. Knowing a little about how the design will come together will assist in choosing the right era theme. Those with vintage collections will undoubtedly want to choose the same era material.

Mixing modern themes with vintage is also perfectly acceptable. For patterns in making curtains and pillows take a look on the Internet or visit a local craft center. Other ways to build a pattern is by simply buying a solid material, and making era iron on transfers from scanned photos, or those found on the Internet.

Personalize them by using a family member's old school album to create the perfect era pillows. Scanning words written in books and making iron on colored transfers for pillows is also a way to personalize pillows. For those choosing to use photo transfers, a white background is probably best. Pillows can be further accentuated with a novelty fabric ruffle.

Photos can be created that are eye-catching and unique by using themed material, and overlaying with photo adhesives or gluing photos found various places. To make connect fabric to a piece of cardboard, and glue any pictures over the fabric. Allow to dry and enclose in glass. Also think of appliances or other select accessories that could be updated or included to give the space a new look. For instance steel appliances for kitchens might be purchased, to give a truly era look. Rod iron would also be a popular inclusion.

For instance, neon signs can be included, canisters, and vintage baskets, figurines, collected bottles and themed shelves can be used. Candy machines, other vintage signs, and even old juke boxes can be included. Themed throw pillows, vintage lights, and old model cars are also good items to include. Country themes can be mixed to employ old figurines, vintage dishes, and antique furniture.

No matter how the theme is employed it is a fun, entertaining way to decorate a room, and update the current look and style of a home. There are many ways to implement such a theme. Even bathrooms and bedrooms can be a new look with this theme.

Using creative methods is the best idea for providing the most unique ways of updating the space. By using decorative design methods, and implementing era themes, along with use of coca cola fabric in craft making, personalized and unique items can be created that will entertain for years to come. Keep sakes will be introduced into the overall theme that will not only entertain, but serve as a conversation piece for family and visitors.
