A lovely shade of dark grey and fun yellow and light gray fabric gave this telephone table a fun new look.
the before
dark and boring, oh and very bad vinyl over old vinyl and a thin layer of batting for a cushion.
I bought it at my local discount fabric store. My favorite thing about this fabric is the weaving and its so soft.
I gave the seat a new thick cushion and batting.
Painting the inside was the hardest. I need to invest in short handle Purdy brushes.
Did you see my bicycle embroidery hoop art?
I will tell more about our fun day at the Sowa Open Market today or tomorrow...with pictures of our set up.
Today I'm cleaning the house......its been a mess and I really need to go grocery shopping.
I will be linking my telephone table up at some link parties, check out which ones here.
so cute! i love the color and fabric!
ReplyDeleteDarling! I really want to find a phone table but since we have been looking, none have come up. I really like the embroidery hoops too. Did you stamp or image transfer the bicycles onto the fabric? Very fun!
ReplyDeleteI really love the color. I notice it's not distressed either. I like that!
ReplyDeleteI just did an old sewing chair in this same color combo...http://vanhookandco.blogspot.com/2012/05/sewing-chair-redo.html and was really happy with the results! That fabric you used is so nice....love that!!!
ReplyDeleteLove it! Your table chair would look great with my Ikat chair! The fabrics are super similar. :)

ReplyDeleteI love the grey and yellow combo, I'm moving towards it in my bedroom. and here, with just the yellow on the seat, you can always reupholster if you want grey and aqua or something like that!
