Upholstery Heaven.

I have died and gone to reupholstery heaven.  Check out the before and after pictures from this beautiful arm chair passed down to us about a year ago.  The chair has the most amazing details, so I knew once we found the right fabric combo it would be such a special piece.  She arrived earlier this week and I'm so in love...

BEFORE











































AFTER











































We have quite a few patterns going on in our living room, with a saturated oriental rug, chevron ottoman and mediterranean tiled fireplace.  I wanted something simple and classic, so I picked a super soft and scrumptious Robert Allen cream velvet.  (Hubs, thinks I'm nuts with a dog and 15 month old! And I might be.)











































Chunky throw and ombre pillow - WestElm

But I still wanted to do something unique with it, so check out her back side.  Surprise!!  I can't get enough of this navy and cream ikat print (found at DenverFabrics.com).











































And the details... LOVE...














































I just wish we were allowed to sit on this :)
