How to reupholster....

I treated myself to a little gift....


I'm loving this book by Amanda Brown of Spruce.


(And you have got to look at her living room that she showcases in the book, you can get a sneak peak in the book preview -- it's swoon worthy!)

My obsession with upholstery started 3 years ago when I took a class from a local community college.  After that, everything else has been self taught (by trial and error), youtube, or by studying the video that I purchased from the Spruce website.



Cheers!

Before and After - Reupholstery makes such a difference

For all you Manuel Canovas (designer fabric) lovers, here's a another 'before and after'....

And, I'm putting the 'after photo' first, because it's so pretty....


This chair was a sad sight when I picked it up from an estate sale. 






The original chair had a button detail on the arm rest, but I changed it to a pleated edge.

 The backside looks pretty sweet as well.....


This chair would look so cute in a girl's bedroom!


Cheers!
