Slipcovers by Shelley

Dining Chairs

by

My client wanted to switch it up…and get slipcovers made for her dining room. She chose this great fabric with fall colors.

Chair—BEFORE

Chair–AFTER—I piped out the arms and inside arms. Tuck in around the seat, and matched up the band on the front.

Whole dining room together!

HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO YOU ALL!!!
Side Note—- Demo of our fence and large willow tree has begun and our new garage is going to be built next month. Then we will start on converting our old garage to my new “work studio”!
Here is my inspiration pic of how we may fill in our garage door for the work studio, except there will be 5 sections and two of them will open up…so I can move furniture in and out.

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!
