sgdish Custom Cushion for Wicker Chair Apr 18, 2008 6:38 AM This plain wicker chair needed a little "something", and this playful parrot fabric was just the ticket! I decided to do a contrasting welt in a bold pink. I can't wait to add additional pieces to this chair!

sgdish My Re-Upholstered Chair is Back! Apr 11, 2008 4:55 PM Remember the ugly before pictures of this chair? It now matches my bedroom with the spunky green and the springs have been re-worked, so it's actually comfortable. Corner Chair - Before The "after" transformation
sgdish An Incredible Chair to Re-Mix Mar 19, 2008 6:33 AM I can't wait to paint and re-upholster this potential beauty. I plan to use it in my "girly" guest room, which is predominantly white, pink, and bright green. I'm thinking of painting the frame a creamy white and antiquing it slightly so the floral design shows, and having it upholstered in a bubble bum pink color. The jury's still out on the upholstery color, but I'm ready to start on the painting. I have a footstool to match and the chair is really wide and comfortable, so it will make a fabulous reading corner!
sgdish Furniture Sent out to Re-Upholster Mar 9, 2008 7:00 PM I sent three pieces out to re-upholster about three weeks ago. He told me it should take about four weeks, so I should be one week away from getting these back. I can't wait to see them. The corner chair will completely be re-done because the springs were horrible. He will re-tie them and make it as good as new. I chose a leafy green velvet for the new upholstery because I'm using green accents in the master bedroom and want to use it there. The shield back chair will be a bright red floral fabric, but the back and piping of the chair will be a green coordinating print. It should look fabulous. The third piece is a cute wicker chair. The guy will make a great cushion for it using a fabric I found that is green with multi-color parrots. I'll be sure to post pictures of the finished products when I get them back! This corner chair will have a bright leafy green velvet. This chair will have a fab red print and the piping (welting) will be a bright green print. This wicker chair will come back with a green cushion with colorful parrots.
