Red, White, & Blue Done Right

Red, white, and blue unfortunately can be done so wrong, too "themey" most times.  The last thing you want is for a room to look like the 4th of July threw up on it.  I've found some beautiful RWB combos done right!  Enjoy and have a wonderful holiday weekend!

the heights

golden yellow and taupe diamond on linen blend fabric. painted taupe. trimmed with golden yellow and soft white textured ribbon.

I received an email from a girl who had seen my twins chair posting. She told me she bought two chairs and has had them for a year with the ambition of reupholstering them, clearly it hadn't happened. I had so much fun working with her, emailing back and forth all day about fabric and style. She chose the fabric and then gave me free reign on the rest. I'm in the process of recovering two stool seats for her.

turquoise whimsy pattern on light blue cotton fabric. painted charcoal gray/blue.

I sold these chairs as I pair (forgot to take a pic of both before they sold). I don't think I would have had room to take a picture of these together. At the time, I had 4 extra chairs and a sofa in my 650 sq ft apartment! Luckily they sold the same day I put them up. The man I bought them from had a set of 8 chairs, unfortunately I don't have room to store 8 chairs. They are really beautifully made chairs. The down fall of living in NYC.

79th Street

painted navy with a kelly green geometric pattern.

This was pretty ugly when I picked it up off the side of 79th street (hints the name). Yes, off the side of the street. An ugly dinning room table chair in one arm and my 98 lb golden retriever pulling me on my other arm. A man literally laughed out loud at me as I walked the block back to my Apt. Thanks dude!

the studd

upholstered with a dark sea green pattern on white

I absolutely love the dome nail heads on this stool. I decided not to paint the wood because of the scratches and dents. I think they add some really neat character.
