Linen chair redo

Actually they are not slips, it is upholstery..sometimes that works better!

Oh how I wish I had a before picture of these chairs..they were nice but very, well stuffy..the new slips, from Beadboard Upcountry in Brenham, Texas, did just the trick!  What was once prissy and formal is now classic and casual, while maintaining the integrity of the chair…the little flange and big pleats are just right…and the linen..perfection!  I can’t wait to show the rest of this room..very fun..just like the homeowner!

and thanks Maryanne for all of your help!

Fresh fabric

I am already getting emails from people wanting to freshen things up after putting away the Christmas decorations and looking forward to a new year and fresh start…I feel the same way. I plan to work on my upstairs bathroom this year even though it is rarely seen… I know it is up there!

Maybe you aren’t ready for a major redo or project…maybe just a few new pillows or simple window treatment is all you need or have time for. These fabrics from Calico Corners are perfect ..and don’t be intimidated if you go in their stores and notice things are a little different and much of the fabric is now special order…you can always order SAMPLES, for $7 and free shipping you can order 18 x 27 “swatches”..perfect for pillows.
