E's Den Design

This design is for a very dear friend. She recently moved into a super cool guest house.

We are starting literally from scratch. All the way down to painting the walls.

Here is a board we have come up with to tie in the "living" space of her mini-house. 

Can't wait to show you the before's and our progress so far!!

Upholstery- the story of a bench

Here is the story of a small bench with LOTS of potential. 

You remember that major story in April that swept through the southeast??

A lot of bad happened, but some good did come, like some awesome antiques on the curb;
enter exhibit A.

A sweet friend of mine snatched this and a few other items out of someone's "trash" pile. She knew if we  put our minds together we could make this little guy cute in no time flat!!

We had no top, so we used a scrap piece of plywood, drilled 5 holes to make a diamond shape and got to work.

1. covered in multiple layers of batting.
2. stapled the batting down
3. trimmed the excess
4. covered the batting with dr's flannel, aka curtain inner lining... same thing
5. cover buttons in accenting fabric
6. pin and sew the piping in place.

 7. attach main fabric to the cushion
 8. attached the buttons with an upholstery needle and heavy duty twine
 9. we added "L" brackets underneath to attach the cushion to
10. stapled the piping to the bench frame, and screwed on the top.

I will show a "tada" pic in my friend's uuber cute house.
