Transformations Or Why I Love Beautiful Fabrics

 For this post I have a series of chair transformations. Using an amazing fabric can do wonders for a chair. The first  is in a client's family, a perfectly nice chair. The chair was recovered in an orange toned cut velvet from Designers Guild. Now it is a stunning chair.
 


 Next is the French Wing Chair from Restoration Hardware, a wonderful chair with beautiful lines. Recovering  the chair in a printed cotton from Quadrille customized and enhanced the already stunning chair.

Next is a chair I found in the back of a vintage store. I had it recovered in a floral printed linen from Designers Guild. The chair was given a new life.
 
The chairs above are new. Same style covered in different fabrics. The first is in a Zofffany fabric and used in a sun room. The second is another Designers Guild fabric and it is in a sitting room that is part of a master suite. Same chair, different personalities. What's not to love?

    Redos are so much fun. I love the before and afters. They are all beautiful.

    I love all the "after" results Vicki. I was wondering if you could tell me where I could have my chair re-upholstered?

    thanks,
    Malou

    Hi Vicki, it's me Malou. I love the "after" results of your re-do's. Is there anyone you could recommend for reupholstering?

    thanks,
