Site Supervisor Sparky, reporting for duty 🫡⚡👷

We had a precious pup keeping a close eye on our guys in Parkdale today. A very close eye. Not that they minded. If anything, it was extra inspiration for them to do their best. Who could possibly disappoint that face?

Judging by the neat little skylight blind installation, the extra oversight worked a treat.

This cordless honeycomb blind was made using Turnils Harlem Block Out in Skywalk, a cool toned white that brightens any space it’s in while still controlling for sun and privacy. A choice like this is clever, especially coming into Summer. Honeycomb blinds are as good at capturing heat as Sparky is at capturing hearts!

If you’re interested in upping the insulation in your home, give us a call on 95632 1169. Especially if you have a cute dog.

Let`s look to the future 🔮

We`re quickly closing in on the end of 2026 and Fabric Creations is a hive of activity. Not only are we squeaking in the final "before Christmas, please" orders, but at this time of year, the forecasts for 2027 are well and truly in.

More than any other brand, you guys bring in Dulux swatches to our consultations which works out brilliantly because we think the palettes released by Dulux for 2027 are just gorgeous. And rest assured, we have the goods to match. Take a flick through Part 1 of Fabrics and Colours we think you`ll be seeing next year. If anything piques your interest, we`re very happy to have a chat.

We’re also delighted to direct you to Lyn Lewis @affordable_colour_design for truly expert colour consultations. If you’re looking for a whole home solution, she is the person for the job!

Time to brighten up! ☀️

We`re so pleased with the final results of this project in Dingley Village. The two bay windows have been framed beautifully by wavefold sheers made of Nettex`s Bali in Driftwood sitting pretty on their custom bent tracks. They`re a perfect fit!

Peeking out from behind these curtains are block out rollers made using Qube in Rock. These have been automated with a suite of Somfy Zigbee motors controlled through a TaHoma switch. This means our customer can let the sunny days into their home at the touch of a button.

If you`re in the market for a smart solution to get the best out of your windows this Summer, give us a call on (03) 9532 1169. We`d love to hear from you!

Peep these undeniably chic sheers 😎

We must admit, when a customer approaches us with black sheer curtains in mind, it is an exciting prospect for us. Why? Because we know we`re going to get big results.

Wall-to-wall coverage has created a feature that feels right at home with the monochromatic colour scheme. This is refined, impactful and not like anything else. The overall effect is especially eye-catching with the sculptural finish of a wavefold curtain.

The fabric here is also something you don`t see every day. We used Maurice Kain`s Woolamai in Onyx, a softly textured sheer with grain that diffuses light like a dream. Most people couldn`t imagine a black drape making a room seem so warm!

If you`re after something a little special and out of the ordinary like these customers, Fabric Creations want to help turn your vision into reality. We`d love to see you in the showroom.

One year since we relaunched our showroom! 🥂

What a year it’s been. Our displays have grown, countless lovely people have walked through our doors, and we’ve learned so much along the way.

Looking back, we’re incredibly proud of how far we’ve come. We might be a small team, but we’re a mighty one, united by a genuine passion for what we do and a commitment to delivering the very best to our customers.

A special congratulations to Carmen and Darrin, whose drive, dedication and hard work have been at the heart of everything we’ve achieved since the relaunch. What an amazing job you’ve both done!

To everyone who has visited, supported or been part of our journey over the past year, thank you.

Here’s to another year of growing, learning, creating and welcoming more of you through our doors. And to many more years to come!
