Wingbacks–BEFORE–worn teal velvet. All of this furniture was from her childhood growing up!
LOVESEAT–BEFORE–The linen was really heavy, but it still had a hard time covering up those dark flowers. I made a separate undergarment (like a slip) out of muslin for more coverage. Just a quick slipcover out of muslin with no piping and a simple hem–super fast.
DINING CHAIRS—BEFORE–Cruel covered seats that were getting worn. We actually just used a basic white twill cotton on these and self lined them. I thought the linen would be too heavy and the skirts wouldn’t hang right.
AFTER–love the white contrast with all the dark wood!
AFTER–lots of velcro openings on these chairs to make them work with the wood coming down the center back.
AFTER–used same cotton twill for the knife pleat edge instead of the heavy linen.
LOVESEAT–AFTER
COUCH–AFTER–apparently I got too excited to put the new slipcover on I forgot to take a before pic!
Tie opening on back and knife pleat edge.
Finials came off–so I slipcovered like normal and sewed a button hole, so the finial could screw in after the slipcover was installed.
