Before and After Projects

I first want to say sorry for the lack of posts last week. Hannah was the only one of my children on Spring Break and I tried to make it fun for her ( my fun and a 12 year olds fun are totally different).

Now that everyone is back in school, I can refocus. I finally was able to pick up two pieces that I had reupholstered. They turned out great and I am so excited to show you before and after pictures.

Before: I bought 2 of these chairs on Craigslist.

After: I had the chair upholstered in a hot pink suede for my daughters room. We both love how it turned out. I have one more of these chairs which has been stripped of its old fabric but has not been upholstered. If anyone is interested contact me for pricing.

Before: I bought this adorable chair in an antique store in Bethany Beach.

After: I had the seat of the chair upholstered in a cream fabric with little rose colored dots which form a diamond pattern. The back of the chair is done in an all rose fabric which also has a diamond pattern set in the material. I painted the arms and legs of the chair in a distressed cream. This is a small chair and would look great in a little girls room. Anyone interested in purchasing this chair, please contact me for pricing.

Another new addition to SHM Designs is Duralee Fabrics. Duralee is a family owned and operated company that was founded in 1952. I have used their fabrics both personally and in business and have always been completely happy. I absolutely love the variety of their fabrics, and am very excited to be able to offer them with the ease of seeing them right in my home. Duralee also has an incredible furniture line which is made right here in the US .
