1. Block Print Magic: A Fabdivine Textile Transformation


What better way to breathe life into tired furniture than with Fabdivine's signature block-printed textiles?

  • Upholstery Revival: Reupholster a worn-out chair or bench with our vibrant, handcrafted fabrics. Choose a bold pattern to make a statement or a subtle design for a touch of understated elegance.

  • Table Runner Transformation: Create a stunning table runner from a Fabdivine textile remnant, adding a touch of artisan charm to your dining space.


2. Paint with Purpose: Eco-Friendly Finishes


Give your furniture a fresh coat of paint using eco-friendly, low-VOC options.

Update the hardware on your furniture for an instant style upgrade.

  • Vintage Knobs & Pulls: Scour antique stores and flea markets for unique knobs and pulls to add character to your pieces.
