It has been a crazy few weeks for me with the move, and I am finally back in the studio full time this week. Trying to play catch-up is a bit overwhelming, but I am getting it done, little by little
Of course being back means that I get to go through the new shipment of fabric sample books that arrived during my absence. For those who don’t know, I’m a bit of a fabric connoisseur (If I do say so myself ). It is my absolutely favorite part of my work as an Interior Decorator. In fact, I have decided to give you all a brief “behind the scene” look at my vast fabric sample collection.
My design studio located in the heart of Houston’s beautiful Museum District is still a work in progress, so you will get to see pictures of the entire studio in the near future, but for now, here is a rare glimpse of where the magic happens
These are new arrivals from Norbar Fabrics
This is where I sit to pull preliminary fabric selections for projects I am working on
These are hanging samples or my loose samples that are not booked.
Believe it or not, there are lots more that are not shown, but you get the idea
I love having a large selection for my clients, and I am always seeking out new and exciting sources. This allows me to give each client a unique, custom design that they will love for many many years! There is something for everyone here. From time to time I cannot find just the right fabric I have in mind, so I visit the Decorative Center Houston, where most of my favorite fabric houses have a showroom: Kravet, Duralee, Fabricut, Pindler & Pindler and Schumacher…..It’s like a kid in a candy store when I visit! One of my future goals is developing my own line of fabrics, that way, I will always have exactly what I have in mind!
I want to give my clients the same experience of a kid in a candy store when they visit my design studio: A welcoming, comfortable and inspired feeling, where there are lots of choices to suit their taste, lifestyle and budget……and they leave happy and satisfied!
You are welcomed to visit Casa Vilora Interiors design studio anytime! Please contact me if you are interested in finding out more about my design services or scheduling an appointment.

Thank you Yvonne!
Great organization .. I love the pink print in the first picture.
Glad your move went okay and you are back online..
You have quite a collection of fabric samples!
You have allot to offer people!
I love your creativity!!!!
I worked in a fabric store in NYC when I was an illegal alien
Oh so many to choose from!
So, what you don’t know about me is this: I LOVE the mechanics! I love going to a play and watching the goings on in the back. I love a conveyor belt! and I LOVE this!!!
Lol. Thanks Tina!
That’s a lot of fabric. I think I would be too overwhelmed to actually be able to pick something out from all of it.
That’s what I am here for. I certainly don’t leave clients to fend for themselves. I am there every step of the way
You have quite a collection of fabric samples! Great organization!
Wow… it’s cool!!
I love those fabrics! You did a great job for your clients.
What a terrific selection! If your clients can’t find something it would be a surprise to me!!
I love your analogy about making your clients feel like they are a kid in a candy store:) What a great variety of fabrics:)
Thanks Dani!
This is why I pay people like you.. This would overwhelm me.
LuSundra, I do all the “heavy lifting” no need to be overwhelmed
