ANTIQUE CHAIR REUPHOLSTERING + E-DESIGN UPDATE

I love a great re-upholstery project and these two inherited antique chairs turned out just the way I was hoping.

 

The chairs were really nice to begin with, but didn't fit the young, cape-cod style of the home and we needed a more kid friendly fabric for this family with 3 children under 7 years old.


We chose this greenish/grayish velvet-textured fabric because it looks like a high-end velvet but is 100% polyester so it will clean up fabulously.


We didn't want to ruin the antique feeling of the chairs, but the wood frame did not match the home so we did a white rub on the frame to give it a white-washed/antique look. And with the help of my favorite upholsterers, Rocky Mountain Upholstery, this is our finished product!


And my E-Design update is that I am no longer accepting E-Design clients for the time being. I hope to return to doing E-Design in the near future, but for now my schedule is filling up to the point that I can't dedicate the time I would like for these projects. I appreciate all of my E-Design clients who have been SO incredibly great and fun to work with and I hope to return to doing E-Design soon!

And some more news is that our new website/blog is almost finished! I can't wait to share the new site with you so stay in touch and have a great week!

  6. Thank you for sharing! I love the fact that you had the confidence to take a classic good looking chair and refurbish it to a wonderful contemporary look. I am pondering doing the same thing to my 10 year old love seat. It is light tan and I would like it to match my blue themed bedroom.
