Here it is stripped down. Obviously, these weren't going to be my favorite pieces of furniture in their "before" peachy rattan state. Enter some neutral striped fabric and some creative slipcovering and you can see them "after" in the living room from my former home, below.
It would have been fun to do a step-by-step process with this room, sigh. The only new piece of furniture was the left console table purchased at an unfinished wood furniture store. I think I'll have to do a future Home Tour post of my prior home. As an additional note, it's probably time to donate (or try to sell these chairs), they don't really "go" in my new home very well. The kids use them on the loft, where the top photo was taken. There is a reason I never photograph that area--it's due for some TLC.

You rock! The stenciled pillow made me smile, it is so whimsical. You do such good work, I love to see what you come up with!
ReplyDeleteYou are great with fabrics and transforming things with it. Wish I was.....I am learning though:)
ReplyDeleteWow. I would have never thought those "groovy" chairs were under the slipcovers. Great job. I also like your stenciled pillow on the previous post.
ReplyDeleteOh wow, those are beautiful! I admire those that can do this sort of thing, lol. ;) I can't. I just love the style of those covers.
