A Chick & A Chair Upholstery BOOKS CURRENTLY CLOSED TO NEW PROJECTS Residential upholstery, specializing in vintage and family heirlooms Hi there! I'm Lindsay. They had a story. I was hooked.

A Chick & A Chair started when I kept bringing home wonderful vintage furniture that needed new fabric. Always creative and hands-on, I decided that upholstery was something I wanted to try on my own. I grabbed every book I could put my hands on, and scoured the internet for videos and blogs telling me how to do it. Throughout this time, I was working on the pieces at home, and posting pictures of

them to my personal page on Facebook. Eventually, friends began to notice my work, and one friend decided to take a chance on this do-it-yourselfer, and actually paid me to reupholster some chairs for her. But they weren't just any chairs - they had belonged to her grandmother, and they were special. From then on, I realized I had found my calling, and A Chick & A Chair was born in 2016. I now enjoy specializing in chairs with stories for many clients, and I hope to help you help turn your vintage treasures and beloved pieces into family heirlooms!

This one was a bit of a head-scratcher!

The multiple angles coupled with padding and one-dimensional fabric kept puckering the upholstery at the bend in the arm!

I had to get creative, and figured out that I needed extra fabric pulls that allowed me to ease out the puckers. While taking the extra time to tear off the problem fabric, re-evaluate, and do a practice run wasn't my favorite, seeing a much smoother finish made me VERY happy!

I turned 50 today.

This past week, I've found myself being more introspective than usual, contemplating what I want to do with this little life of mine.

Mostly, I want to be more intentional. I want to be kind. I want to leave this place better than I found it. And I want to be a better friend.

If that's the kind of person you are, I hope you'll stick around.

I could learn a thing or two from you!

My goal this summer is to paint a mural of flowers on it so I have something colorful in the backyard when winter hits!

Today, as I was about to pull out of a parking space, a man was parking next to me with his pup in the car.

He started smiling and pointing behind me and then to his dog.

I rolled down the window because I had no clue what he was saying.

"Tell your dog I said hi! Here's your chance to tell her yourself! This is Rosie!"

He had been pointing to the sticker on my car from We Rate Dogs. 🐾🐕‍🦺🐩🦮🐕🐾

I love doing this kind of chair - different fabrics make this style work just about anywhere!

If this was your chair, what type of fabric would you choose for it?

VACATION IDEAS: Help this Chick out?

We want to go on a road trip to Michigan this summer as part of a trip for my cousin's wedding, but we're not sure of the stops we want to make!

Where are some beautiful places (think nature) or charming towns between Minneapolis and Grand Rapids, MI that we NEED to see???

Bonus points for used book stores!
