These chairs were inherited from my client’s grandmother, and while the bones were still beautiful, the fabric was ready for a new chapter. I know how emotional it can be to change something that’s been handed down through generations — but reupholstery is one of the most meaningful ways to preserve those memories while allowing the piece to live on for another 70 years.
When you refinish, repurpose, or reupholster something, you’re not erasing its story… you’re continuing it.
I provided several fabric options for my client to choose from, and I’m so glad she went with something bold yet subtle. The transformation feels fresh, timeless, and full of life — and my upholsterer absolutely knocked it out of the park!!!
This is the beauty of design: honoring the past while creating something that works beautifully for today.
