blue pinstripe loveseat

September 22, 2015 by Shelley

My client wanted a blue pinstripe loveseat in her daughters room. She had an old pink loveseat that had been in storage, so she decided to update it.

Pink loveseat–BEFORE—I removed the skirt to expose the darling legs.

Loveseat–AFTER—blue pinstripe with a 2.5″ pleat ruffle along the base

Since the loveseat was a kidney shape with curves along the front, I installed some velcro to help the slipcover hug to those inside curves.

I made a few pillows to go with it as well.

Her daughters room is darling with a built in bunkbed and loft–lucky girl! Love that chandelier as well!

I came out with my How to Slipcover DVD 5 years ago! At the time I debated on how many DVD’s I wanted to have made. Ultimately I decided on having 1,000 DVD’s made. When I asked Heber how many he thought I ordered he said 300, and I told him 1,000 and we both laughed! I remember thinking–this could be a lifetime supply!

Guess what?! Last week I was down to 5 DVD’s left! I placed another order and just picked up 1,000 more. So in celebration and appreciation to all my followers, I’ve created a 30% off discount code APPRECIATION for anyone that still doesn’t have my DVD yet!

Navy/oatmeal chair

August 26, 2015 by Shelley

My client decided she wanted to switch it up and have a navy/oatmeal chair. She found this great fabric from www.fabric.com. It washed beautifully! click HERE to see BEFORE pic.

After! Lots of matching! She had some extra fabric, so instead of making pillows she thought arm pads would be best to keep the chair looking good. I provide some great, painless MATCHING TIPs in my Advanced Slipcover Guide. It’s an instant download! Use Promo code FALL to receive 20% off!

I really wanted the arm pads to match up as well!

SIDE NOTES! My summer in a nutshell!

My boys are always creating something! I LOVE IT! To see more of their projects search instagram #hebersboys or click here

Heber and I celebrated our 18yr anniversary!

We took our first family backpacking trip! One mile, one night in the Unitas (Lake Ruth).

My oldest son is running cross country and had practices EVERY day of the summer—which meant lots of carpooling! At last weeks meet, he took 31st place out of 256 varsity boys! So worth all the carpooling to see him push himself and run hard. He average 5:30/mile for 2.9miles! So proud of him!

I helped plan our family reunion! We had it on the Oregon Coast this year, which was AMAZING! These are all my siblings! 6 kids and 21 grandkids, it was quite the party! Talent shows, dance parties, fishing, hot tubbing, hiking, paddle boarding, etc! My sister surprised us at the talent show with these bobble heads from an old family picture–her whole family had them on and danced to YMCA–It was the funniest thing I’ve ever seen!
