Linen english rolled arm couch

November 26, 2016 by Shelley

First off–BLACK FRIDAY SALE! 30% off all my tutorials with promo code APPRECIATION. screen-shot-2016-11-26-at-8-27-56-am

My client was moving into a new home and wanted to reuse some of her old furniture. She wanted a linen english rolled arm couch in her new place. The original was a faded green couch.

Couch–AFTER! She chose a beautiful chunky linen from the Design Company in SLC. I ran piping down the inside back, like the original.

She wanted it to look as upholstered as possible–so I did velcro under the base, to keep it tight and from slipping up.

Cream duck cloth couch

January 28, 2016 by Shelley

My client wanted a cream duck cloth couch. Her neighbor had given her this great scrolled back english rolled arm couch, so she had a great base to start with.

She wanted ties on the back for some extra detail.

 

 

I did a 2″ pleat ruffle around the base

SIDE NOTES—We just got back from our annual couples trip. This year we went to Sayulita, Mexico. So great to be somewhere warm for a week!
This pic was taken on the back porch of the jungle house we stayed at! AMAZING house!
While we were gone, Heber’s dad stayed a few nights with our boys and left a flash drive with some old pics from when we built our house 17 years ago…in the middle of nowhere!

Denim chair

March 13, 2015 by Shelley

My client wanted to change her much loved cream denim chair to a blue denim slipcovered chair. We decided to add a skirt to change it up. I think it turned out great! She loved it so much, so went and bought more denim to do her couch before they move. Heber’s picking the couch up for me tomorrow!
