Pair of Easy Chairs - Modern/Fun Floral

Before:
Green micro-suede fabric.





Again, on this chair we discovered that the previous upholsterer did not remove the deck (which shows the original fabric with the company logos removed). This was removed.



Chair stripped and ready for new fabric.



These two chairs were finished today, and I love how they turned out. I worked on the two at the same time to make sure that they both matched (all the patterns need to align perfectly). Also note the seats in the background, which we finished (back from my first day of work) we had to wait a while for that vinyl since it was on back order.

Note: We goofed, and the seat cushion is upside down (flower) oops! We flipped it back over afterwards.





I love how these turned out!

Set of 4 Dining Chairs - Modern/Fun

Set of 4 dining room chairs. I was *SURE* I had a set of before photos of these chairs, and apparently it slipped my mind. They were dark grey with silver tacks (see earlier photo of finished green Victorian Chair in the lower left corner).

During:
All the tacks on the back portion are all done individually by hand. The 4 chairs took up around 1200 tacks. It seems tedious, but it went fairly quickly and easily.



After:
The fabric on these was quite fun and cheerful. The interior is a geometric pattern with greens and blues, while the back is a chenille type solid cream fabric with antique gold tacks.

Pair of Reproduction Victorian Chairs - Green Leaves

Pair of Victorian reproduction chairs (and a set of 6 drop-in dining room chair seats (same fabric): not shown).

Before:



In typical fashion, a previous upholsterer covered over the old cover rather than remove it (as we always do). You can also see that the seat is very bumpy/lumpy.



The reason that the seat was so lumpy was because the foam had torn through the springs. There is usually a burlap or other covering/barrier over the springs to prevent this from happening. The chairs were taken down to the bare frames, and new foam, cotton/padding was installed along with the new top fabric.

Wing Chair - Dark Green

Here's a wing chair Pierre recovered in a Dark Green and diamond pattern fabric. Sorry for the blurry photos, we didn't really take the time to properly photograph this one. It's a beautifully made old frame, and this one had a down-filled cushion.

Pair of Wing Chairs - Gold/Pale Yellow

These two wing chairs were actually done by Pierre about 5 years ago for this client, and she decided to change them again to something different. Hooray for repeat business! Here is the before (which I actually quite liked):



During:



On these, I was the one who did all of the coverings for the two chair frames (Pierre did the cushions/sewing, etc).
