White Denim Chaise

by

My client also wanted to do her chaise in white denim to go with the loveseat in the same room

 Chaise—BEFORE

 Chaise–AFTER— I decided to do a band around the front to make the lines cleaner instead of doing a pleat/ tuck thing on the front corners. Then I topstitched the seam on the corner where I had to piece the band.

 Her whole room…

 The chaise didn’t have a separate seat cushion….so I had to do tuck in all around the back of the seat.

I am loving those dark turned legs!
SIDE NOTE—
I have been obsessed with the new remodel project of converting our garage into a new work studio for myself and building a new Garage for Heber. 
I have already bought some amazing curtain fabric, a HUGE chandelier, and a door (for barn sliding door). We are working on drawings to get permits from the city. My inspiration for my new space was a Master Bedroom redo by Mandi at Vintage Revivals! I love navy blue and mossy green together….but I wouldn’t have ever chosen the gold…but I love it all together!

White Denim Loveseat with ruffled skirt

by

Loveseat –BEFORE

 Loveseat–AFTER, she was wanting a change. I loved her wood floors that were white washed.

English rolled arms are my favorite…. I did a 1 1/2″ blind hem on the skirt and gathered it. The denim didn’t hang well with the gathers, so I ironed the gathers down, so they’d lay better.

I followed the original lines of the loveseat and piped down the center front.

Side Note– I am taking December off, so I am on the home stretch…just finishing up 16 parson chairs, and then 2 more chairs and an ottoman!
I am outgrowing my current work room in my basement and have decided to convert our garage to my new work room—so that will be my (Heber’s) December project. I am pretty excited about this…just the thought of unloading furniture from the driveway straight into my workroom instead of hauling all the pieces down stairs is AMAZING!

Camille’s Front Room UPDATE

by

I helped Camille about 2 years ago with her front room….which she loved. But lately she was wanting to update it just a bit. 
Front room—from 2 years ago (BEFORE)
Free Ottoman I picked up on my local Facebook yardsale page. I wanted to keep it for myself, but after realizing I didn’t have a spot for it and it sat in my spare room for 4 months—I offered it to Camille.  I LOVE round ottomans.

AFTER–
Here’s what we ended up with…. She kept her main pieces (gray couch and paisley chair). We added a new rug, new pillows, and a round ottoman.

She also found a mantle on KSL.com for $50. The rug is from www.rugsusa.com. and the gray houndstooth ottoman fabric came from www.fabric.com for $7/yd.

How beautiful did her room turn out??? I LOVE IT! I happened to see the bird fabric on the pillows at our local fabric store the week before she ordered her rug, luckily…they still had a little left.
