My chairs are back!!!


We have made sooo much progress these last few weeks, with lighting and furniture. My favorite so far is the newly upholstered love seat and two "fancy" chairs. Remember how I couldn't decide what to cover them in? Well, it just so happens that I found some of my favorite Hable Construction fabric on Designer's Attic, and snapped it up just in time. The fabric for the love seat is linen, that I got for 2.99 a yard at Fabric World. I love the little bit of nail head trim I had the upholsterer's do, it looks so pretty! If you are looking for someone to upholster anything, or make you a custom bed (yes please, maybe in a few months...) call Angie at New Again Upholstery.

    Wow, Michelle! It looks fabulous. Fernando is such a superb craftsman. And don't you love fabric even more when it's $3.99/yard? Beautiful!
