One more chair-saved!

by

Last chair to view for now….this one was given to my upholstery guy by someone who was “throwing it out”. He reupholstered it for a talk we did together with Carol Sarason (window treatments,pillows,bedding) on decorating at Carlton-Willlard in Bedford MA for senior citizens. I loved it so much that I kept it and brought it down to my summer house. Sometimes all it takes is finding a fun fabric-keeping in mind the scale of the pattern and the style of the chair.Image

“Well, I do have”…..

This is what I hear quite often-as with this client.”Well, I do have this old chair I inherited-it is out in the shed”. We were considering what kind of chair she wanted  to purchase for her new guest bedroom and then she remembered the chair out in the shed. Incredible. Again-the message: think about chairs you can reupholster instead of purchasing a new one!
