A wonderful design website for designers.<br />http://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/1772190/list/Art-Rises-to-Staircase-Challenge<br />It was a feature on staircases. It featured my home picture of my own staircase.<br />I have uploaded pics of my home first, them pics of my store and items I have made for sale in my store. I have gotten many clients from these pictures and uploads.<br />I am so proud of my accomplishments and all I have done. My hard work has paid off and it shows in what I have done all these years. My business has steadily grown and I am so incredibly happy. Here is the pic of the HOUZZ.COM staircase pic of my home and new pics of my store. enjoy :-)Vintage Chic Furniturehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09660200191571351473noreply@blogger.com41tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5064750971071412699.post-4846655175667802682012-03-18T23:02:00.003-04:002012-03-18T23:18:38.554-04:00New Store expansion Vintage Chic Furniture Schenectady NY Bigger Better<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhNlNq5Pxyd-cm4O3oxccYprptFl5vg-qIQtK91vUoMYJss6p8i2IDBHnk3OOUrKr03dkzFuDoozcM2fBe7pDEnJWaVnsvNxCkk9LGl5hx-fplEP6CJMXGg4qGk6eE2dN2lisKFcoR1gxHM/s1600/_MG_0187.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 228px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhNlNq5Pxyd-cm4O3oxccYprptFl5vg-qIQtK91vUoMYJss6p8i2IDBHnk3OOUrKr03dkzFuDoozcM2fBe7pDEnJWaVnsvNxCkk9LGl5hx-fplEP6CJMXGg4qGk6eE2dN2lisKFcoR1gxHM/s400/_MG_0187.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5721440973688231618" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgITfKjbzrtKBNB8wDG-sUlEDYTYBglUatr4UQdgLA7qER_49q7ICeIljRgFVDDciZL02LEB-Kofpae2iE5vfbunODUioY0ehsdCgl70EWlbcS069u8pJeWZcKpVD1i2zeFcGh-Mu0CY8qR/s1600/_MG_0134.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 266px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgITfKjbzrtKBNB8wDG-sUlEDYTYBglUatr4UQdgLA7qER_49q7ICeIljRgFVDDciZL02LEB-Kofpae2iE5vfbunODUioY0ehsdCgl70EWlbcS069u8pJeWZcKpVD1i2zeFcGh-Mu0CY8qR/s400/_MG_0134.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5721440967117493010" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiBPF3XAnfSklnaWzNEQjy16yT8m9Fn0OLCwsZRCVbpd4AifCxJQ4WqOc4Qrbst2ZhUfMWqKLdVFS9enjtlyxd1YrMnivCCIkhlhoKPOWu5VdyKmC1jPMFLepca2PkF23W_H9fSmen_xdDU/s1600/_MG_0123.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 266px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiBPF3XAnfSklnaWzNEQjy16yT8m9Fn0OLCwsZRCVbpd4AifCxJQ4WqOc4Qrbst2ZhUfMWqKLdVFS9enjtlyxd1YrMnivCCIkhlhoKPOWu5VdyKmC1jPMFLepca2PkF23W_H9fSmen_xdDU/s400/_MG_0123.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5721440963049826210" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjc-_s02qGSSW9TTvTQKN-cV_TYKwQfhdYFL72ynASntrQVbfIH784EyLO8-zA8MCQwXupAeMrUXUdNYVZ-QOWOZEu52rh4getJm62XhM81H4hXacLq47G9udCB8-dTQA18T1PDp-EZJQ9a/s1600/_MG_0133.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 266px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjc-_s02qGSSW9TTvTQKN-cV_TYKwQfhdYFL72ynASntrQVbfIH784EyLO8-zA8MCQwXupAeMrUXUdNYVZ-QOWOZEu52rh4getJm62XhM81H4hXacLq47G9udCB8-dTQA18T1PDp-EZJQ9a/s400/_MG_0133.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5721440961156414354" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhLv3fnWcYMfeygFjXsZpDMTNhgCl1M2QZVvZT4Cpmxz7aXZQ174z0yj5oEwRmqvCeeHDSt1oadXvYBSZLUklnA8XDgi4-Es686fVq1DovGA_HBbfDjrU9foZzJ9rOhcM7mGhCqAwfy2VHB/s1600/_MG_0127.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 266px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhLv3fnWcYMfeygFjXsZpDMTNhgCl1M2QZVvZT4Cpmxz7aXZQ174z0yj5oEwRmqvCeeHDSt1oadXvYBSZLUklnA8XDgi4-Es686fVq1DovGA_HBbfDjrU9foZzJ9rOhcM7mGhCqAwfy2VHB/s400/_MG_0127.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5721440957183004354" /></a><br />Hi , so happy to share with you some pictures of my new store expansion. I was lucky enough to get the store next door, which i secretly prayed for for almost 2 years. <br />These pictures from February 1st. my grand opening party. Taken by Thea Coughlin- A FABULOUS child photographer specializing in newborns. I collaborate with her using my furniture for photo shoots. <br />My store is 1100 sq ft. however the store showroom is only 600 sq ft<br />Too small for selling furniture.<br />The rest is taken up by my office/ sewing area, then my workshop in the back- "where all the magic happens" LOL<br />I have had so many more customers in since I reopened. Its amazing how that big window gives me so much more exposure. Sooooo happy.<br />See my online store www.vintagechicfurniture.etsy.com<br />Much health, wealth and happiness to all :-)Vintage Chic Furniturehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09660200191571351473noreply@blogger.com17tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5064750971071412699.post-78903493769476039562012-02-24T21:13:00.004-05:002012-02-24T21:42:49.335-05:00Does Furniture Have a Soul ?<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjSMXgZecpRScW0GLqczk2zSmXmHlq7Lhok24lRLOPjpZEUpayHYRaZSgco45ysDSifSgLb0ncFtcez0Md6CVLfWv_m-avQh1kFhf8Vw-HiRQVfE58uOE7elTltbCo3fChdU_bmV7cKGZp8/s1600/IMAG0882.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 267px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjSMXgZecpRScW0GLqczk2zSmXmHlq7Lhok24lRLOPjpZEUpayHYRaZSgco45ysDSifSgLb0ncFtcez0Md6CVLfWv_m-avQh1kFhf8Vw-HiRQVfE58uOE7elTltbCo3fChdU_bmV7cKGZp8/s400/IMAG0882.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5712894807109028594" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhbdHQupjpCi1MSMxfeeScBJG681wwk-UT7_lhM0rWkpiJdVXeQEjG-Y0eF29sHVa-QhjuDWQmXdkiThjv1tnUCwyPlSlakb9UyKu9KC_CfUJF-yZfORkZRAmbLtkXGe6Is7JFb1EVIPR80/s1600/chairs+sofa+004.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 267px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhbdHQupjpCi1MSMxfeeScBJG681wwk-UT7_lhM0rWkpiJdVXeQEjG-Y0eF29sHVa-QhjuDWQmXdkiThjv1tnUCwyPlSlakb9UyKu9KC_CfUJF-yZfORkZRAmbLtkXGe6Is7JFb1EVIPR80/s400/chairs+sofa+004.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5712894805112294642" /></a><br /> Ive seen books about haunted antiques. I wondered....Have I or will I ever come across one? There's also a question I have heard "does furniture have a soul?" <br /> If i had come across a haunted piece, one that is unhappy, would it still be that way after I loved it, took care of it, and then found it a good loving home?<br /> Imagine the piece of furniture as a person....it was homeless, dirty, need a shower, didn't care much for life anymore....hopeless.... :-( so sad....<br /> Imagine someone picked them up, dusted them off, showed them love and care... gave them some fresh new clothes....a chance to hold you head high again....then finally, the ultimate happiness, to find someone to love you. a new home , a new family?? WHAT JOY !!!<br /> I loved the idea, that as a by product of my creations, I am also recycling. Saving beautiful old pieces that others discarded, saw no worth or value. I love them, each and every piece. I have the joy of making people happy and furniture happy, all while being a responsible human that is helping the planet....what JOY :-)<br /><br />Here are few of my latest creations...<br /> First, a wonderful vintage sofa. Great lines, good bones. I have made a slipcover from a vintage white chenille bedspread. Mixed it up with some lovely rose fabrics and new pillows, Its just heavenly :-)<br /> Next a wonderful old antique dresser circa 1910-1930. I painted 3 different layers of yummy aqua blues and distressed it heavier to bring out all those different shades. It is one on my most favorites lately...finally I added some lovely rose knobs found on etsy. I have started carrying her whole line of rose knobs. Her website is http://www.etsy.com/shop/DaRosa?ref=seller_info<br /> I love the contrast of the distressed finish with the polished pretty rose knobs....so pretty. I have found my calling. I am truly Blessed :-)Vintage Chic Furniturehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09660200191571351473noreply@blogger.com8tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5064750971071412699.post-65399305257150864452012-01-04T22:30:00.003-05:002012-01-04T22:37:25.442-05:00NEW SHOWROOM adding 600 sq foot totalling 1200 sg ft<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj9HZ72qsgRoMVlS7KFTnwxqmmNmtdTEHkmJUcxH7mGIz5pV6z7liyrupuDjI1sH_VLnSDDQg-LAmxeFLCkdPbZ646uvS41c04eyKLEM2o3QGvQp496eFKCZkaabLlLS3nCbVnpPrX7H282/s1600/tn.jpg+construction+new+store+day+3.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj9HZ72qsgRoMVlS7KFTnwxqmmNmtdTEHkmJUcxH7mGIz5pV6z7liyrupuDjI1sH_VLnSDDQg-LAmxeFLCkdPbZ646uvS41c04eyKLEM2o3QGvQp496eFKCZkaabLlLS3nCbVnpPrX7H282/s400/tn.jpg+construction+new+store+day+3.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5693986915772668082" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgIXSGzatroVy0Hkk2oSkg9EMQaa5BjUwOE-kAPbousZrbPBqxn5YdoNHxllvrHGiywfcIhdSJF6_hic1rWgJAQju5cuR9dX6w5XeP4xbgCDwpWQnAZwuBH8orMPAKZNpOMT3nhxHgbRy2z/s1600/tn.jpg+new+shop+construction+day+3.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgIXSGzatroVy0Hkk2oSkg9EMQaa5BjUwOE-kAPbousZrbPBqxn5YdoNHxllvrHGiywfcIhdSJF6_hic1rWgJAQju5cuR9dX6w5XeP4xbgCDwpWQnAZwuBH8orMPAKZNpOMT3nhxHgbRy2z/s400/tn.jpg+new+shop+construction+day+3.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5693986910206802290" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjylKEk8a7o2ghRrPi2j8AlvXeTsXUch_CodBgrGhHDN3ZqfEjsDWHuYmm97PU-5zGBtzWBnJekLRi-_zUEjMQJsw1SVstjmA4rjLZ_eYryE1XKkt1gE2aF01oGsKDwekXqeEIoR-toVWN7/s1600/tn.jpg+new+store+construction+day+2.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjylKEk8a7o2ghRrPi2j8AlvXeTsXUch_CodBgrGhHDN3ZqfEjsDWHuYmm97PU-5zGBtzWBnJekLRi-_zUEjMQJsw1SVstjmA4rjLZ_eYryE1XKkt1gE2aF01oGsKDwekXqeEIoR-toVWN7/s400/tn.jpg+new+store+construction+day+2.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5693986684677218898" /></a><br />OMG!!

I was contacted by Hanna's mom to create for her, a dream princess bedroom for her christmas present. Her mom found me on the website www.houzz.com . and on etsy.com . All the painted distressed furniture are my creations. They include a canopy bed, vanity and chair, dresser, all white distressed. the antique display cabinet was painted a blush pink and I added glass shelves and a light. The side table by the chaise was an antique plant stand that i shortened and painted a pretty lavender. The vintage chaise lounge was covered in vintage chenille bedspreads with pretty floral fabrics. I transformed a vintage ice cream parlor bistro set by painting the metal in a lavender the top in a white and made lovely cushions with lavender fringe trim and long bows- so pretty! I made the curtains with a blush pink opaque fabric including all the canopy bed curtains, huge bow ties and bed skirt. The curtain toppers are the white shabby floral fabric with vintage lavender pom pom trim. Here are a bunch of pics, some when the pieces were in my shop, some when the room was being set up, and finally when her mom finished added all the final touches. hope you enjoy. Please contact me to create your dream room. www.vintagechicfurniture.com happy holidays, hugs, donna :-)Vintage Chic Furniturehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09660200191571351473noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5064750971071412699.post-91245777366024498852011-11-16T20:52:00.003-05:002011-11-16T21:04:44.941-05:00Fab Furniture I found and transformed Shabby Chic Style<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiVd3J-1m30hkGmNU_vKgejgwJUiawPCWO5_f6VdiTpHGM6YtOBsZKltpCh4YGKCShXjRArISr-RBEBcDw_AI01Yz9_dnZLG365K4RU_8CT40KjYJE9GEn8QHvbun6ID1RN8tJ2-XEIfZUN/s1600/PB151037.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiVd3J-1m30hkGmNU_vKgejgwJUiawPCWO5_f6VdiTpHGM6YtOBsZKltpCh4YGKCShXjRArISr-RBEBcDw_AI01Yz9_dnZLG365K4RU_8CT40KjYJE9GEn8QHvbun6ID1RN8tJ2-XEIfZUN/s400/PB151037.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5675779557737011394" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiojO38LY9bP8-3LPWd85Jt1Ohg7ezsWVSovog-9Hb4wz8WjXCK-5w_tc7U_0bnni69PKFDgbV6Cctpe_J-5C1_LBlFHEADEboG1ux65wfe4pG5Vz7KQoxaR8UnUOOqiVQ0WL-iuHBpJrfw/s1600/PB161051.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiojO38LY9bP8-3LPWd85Jt1Ohg7ezsWVSovog-9Hb4wz8WjXCK-5w_tc7U_0bnni69PKFDgbV6Cctpe_J-5C1_LBlFHEADEboG1ux65wfe4pG5Vz7KQoxaR8UnUOOqiVQ0WL-iuHBpJrfw/s400/PB161051.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5675779550619817218" /></a><br />OMG!!! I have been very lucky lately. I have been able to find and buy some super pretty antique furniture pieces. Here are two fabulous finds that are incredible wonderful and rare. More to come as I transform them....<br />First is a low antique buffet that is perfect for a flat screen tv stand. I searched for 2 whole years to find the first one for my own home, i still have it, this is the second. I have to say, this one is nicer ! I have painted it a french gray or gray with white accents and an antique glaze. This is one of my secret paint finishes that makes it look as though it had been painted 100 years ago.<br />Second is a GORGEOUS antique wrought iron bed frame. It is full size, solid cast iron, super heavy and by far one of the nicest ones I have ever seen. It is Very tall at over 5 ft. Very grand.Has a wonderful medallion on the head and footboard. When i got it, There was so much rust and chipping paint. My 2 interns and I scraped all the old paint off then painted it in a wonderful light pink color. OMG, it seemed to suck up the paint!!! i had to use 6 cans for this project. but it looks FABULOUS!!! SO YUMMY !!!! I WISH I HAD THE ROOM !! I WOULD DEFINITELY KEEP IT!!! see it in my Etsy shop www.vintagechicfurniture.comVintage Chic Furniturehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09660200191571351473noreply@blogger.com6tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5064750971071412699.post-74730081710266824052011-11-14T22:40:00.002-05:002011-11-14T22:52:24.672-05:00Bradley Cooper was my neighbor "The Place Beyond The Pines" schenectady ny<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiPlGp7v97ZSMJ_0IFs9hkBubTc77w364lTVizKeqVk6b5SYIQugY4xiPZoHm6maJhhjeFgnTFJwNQ8PqEAmSrizkpXv20QFvILyeh_8Qri-hnraQqu4bgl_TSoYk848zsoyMyIDFNAWNJj/s1600/untitled.bmp"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiPlGp7v97ZSMJ_0IFs9hkBubTc77w364lTVizKeqVk6b5SYIQugY4xiPZoHm6maJhhjeFgnTFJwNQ8PqEAmSrizkpXv20QFvILyeh_8Qri-hnraQqu4bgl_TSoYk848zsoyMyIDFNAWNJj/s400/untitled.bmp" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5675065256043227026" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhW1HlBmNLvR2PavZiKaks-h-czlIBUk0sqXTyDhebQM6YzD-p47YuMYq95wNdQgVtBVg8VnYh5YkDHbROu6MafrZmlJqfNTi-zv9jnCdk25LxXNmvwRDzd_9PAW87sfxZ7sGWF-tc0btX6/s1600/slide1.png"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 152px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhW1HlBmNLvR2PavZiKaks-h-czlIBUk0sqXTyDhebQM6YzD-p47YuMYq95wNdQgVtBVg8VnYh5YkDHbROu6MafrZmlJqfNTi-zv9jnCdk25LxXNmvwRDzd_9PAW87sfxZ7sGWF-tc0btX6/s400/slide1.png" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5675065249306260082" /></a><br />So, can you believe that Bradley Cooper was my neighbor??!! That's right!! He lived 3 doors down from me for 7 weeks during his filming of the movie The Land Beyond The Pines. Shot right here in Schenectady NY . In fact my neighbors also saw Ryan Gosling walking Bradley Coopers dog Charlotte. I live in the Historic Stockade section of Schenectady and this is by far, one of the prettiest areas in town. So many people knew he was here, yet we ALL kept it a secret and respected his privacy. During his stay here, He was blessed with NO PAPARAZZI, No teenage girls, and no crowds of people at his door- CAN YOU IMAGINE??? I am shocked that all of us were able to keep him a secret. I hope he enjoyed the solice and peace that he most likely doesn't get in Hollywood. I just wish I would have had the opportunity to have a glass of wine with him in my friends garden, which was right next door to where he was staying. YOU ARE HOT BRADLEY !!! and to think, i got to live next door to a movie star, one of the hottest ones as well.

I am surrounded by beauty. For that I am truly blessed. My friends and customers remind me of this often. Their comments of my shop and creations are heart warming. I am so humble in my success and I guess I don't realize Just how fabulous I am ( they keep telling me so) These things I make are for others to enjoy and surround themselves with beautiful things that warm THEIR heart. It is a way of giving back, making people happy, people I don't even know. I recycle and help the planet. Just a by product of what I do. I am truly blessed and feel grateful every day for where I am and what do. Thanks to all :-)<br />here are a few of my latest creations. <br />a pink shabby chic daybed<br />and and aqua chenille bedspread slipcovered sofa and chair setVintage Chic Furniturehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09660200191571351473noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5064750971071412699.post-39580582053124205792011-09-13T20:45:00.001-04:002011-09-13T21:22:12.194-04:00Chenille bedspread slipcovered sofa in my customers home<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJbybvmj8ML8aB08jqVHMk0Zhq5l3vDSptJZcedOnjxITGAJ0TF2mijTuaVDGW7aGqDUptcg4OLLK0uv6rdlfRkP6jzIfzLpUEvRLASxwTSXW-IoQXe50UplUYEvpRnyjhf-TxRPyn6IVc/s1600/DSC00950.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJbybvmj8ML8aB08jqVHMk0Zhq5l3vDSptJZcedOnjxITGAJ0TF2mijTuaVDGW7aGqDUptcg4OLLK0uv6rdlfRkP6jzIfzLpUEvRLASxwTSXW-IoQXe50UplUYEvpRnyjhf-TxRPyn6IVc/s400/DSC00950.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5652015406144150706" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhKZMNjeThfOJGU0J_DfwLifElQX1MpLQzcQo7cZHrVzRn4R7gPSvBHquhtfXh_QhoEugFhqhKQU9k2xR8cYba5AIPxS3XKhyUNvHKKlVP1tDUC9tNNBOS3KKKMxJWEvbCoFXwtVKYyxkne/s1600/DSC00948.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhKZMNjeThfOJGU0J_DfwLifElQX1MpLQzcQo7cZHrVzRn4R7gPSvBHquhtfXh_QhoEugFhqhKQU9k2xR8cYba5AIPxS3XKhyUNvHKKlVP1tDUC9tNNBOS3KKKMxJWEvbCoFXwtVKYyxkne/s400/DSC00948.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5652015397470773970" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj_TxpOjLE_6K203Gn3KOk7vQEFP35LOVWyZmfylA8Ng5iwcuLIEe8W3jME73PT7K-z1HEUl99dRmZDTXmx4FEbyTovdGUUJBicemneEIBL7r0rQ3OF6bw12dWwPQUTri3ku_2P1W2awJif/s1600/DSC00951.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj_TxpOjLE_6K203Gn3KOk7vQEFP35LOVWyZmfylA8Ng5iwcuLIEe8W3jME73PT7K-z1HEUl99dRmZDTXmx4FEbyTovdGUUJBicemneEIBL7r0rQ3OF6bw12dWwPQUTri3ku_2P1W2awJif/s400/DSC00951.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5652015378618753970" /></a><br />How wonderful it is for me to see my fabulous creations in their new homes. This is my second ruffle slipcovered sofa made with vintage chenille bedspreads in white with an all over rose pattern. the ruffle takes one whole bedspread. I calculated aprox 600 linear feet of ruffle. Then i have covered the cushions and back pillows with the most yummiest shabby chic fabrics in shades of white, pink and blue. I have them shipped from half way around the world, coming all the way from Asia. My customer was a dream to work with and I was able to get it shipped to her in time for her big party, where she was so proud to show it off to all her friends and family. She was proud, I was prouder. I wish I could have been there to hear all the oohs and aaahs and comments on the beautiful new addition to her livingroom. I shipped it across the country to her residence in California.<br />I know when I had it in my shop, I heard many gasps and sighs, as well as my own. Every time I walked by it I was so amazed at what I made. It was just sooooo pretty. Then I sat in it.....ahhhhhh, it was so cozy.... Was it cozy because it was a really comfortable piece of furniture?....or was it extra cozy because it was so beautiful??? I have to say, I remembered having it in my shop after purchasing it and sitting in it with its original tan muslin upholstered cover and not really thinking much of its coziness. Once i finished the covers, I sank into it and it felt so dreamy, like one of the most comfortable things I've ever sat in before. I think it was more cozy now that it is beautiful :-)<br />I look forward to the next pieces I create and I am as excited as my followers to see what I make next. Each piece gets better and better. I look forward to making more wonderful slipcovered pieces using cozy and heartwarming vintage chenille bedspreads. Find more of my pieces at www.vintagechicfurniture.com and contact me if you would like me to make a special creation just for you. big hugs, donna :-)Vintage Chic Furniturehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09660200191571351473noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5064750971071412699.post-70942109587083885372011-09-09T23:57:00.000-04:002011-09-10T00:08:41.148-04:00Pink Chairs with Vintage Chenille Bedspread Slipcovers<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjSSzJCuOatOJN_50-we9KlO71Nx4vlszWdhosqzHK-s8ecwgZ4FnMUTQ8T_u0Hcd5MMFzZHLjFj46zzNSGwK8jPxjl-OisCh9IKnazE_sXfv2omSFXsiBSlH0cjR60LT84qga1mH4nojdB/s1600/P9080676.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjSSzJCuOatOJN_50-we9KlO71Nx4vlszWdhosqzHK-s8ecwgZ4FnMUTQ8T_u0Hcd5MMFzZHLjFj46zzNSGwK8jPxjl-OisCh9IKnazE_sXfv2omSFXsiBSlH0cjR60LT84qga1mH4nojdB/s400/P9080676.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5650577987558411922" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEip550HXPQ82ZXIBhdzghkfOkWNW2g0idgAKJKWoNNu32I5K7RfbTR9zbyNXMzlfrmQs6ocMa2qURAkNVB6BVmePGO0r9l9sbdfIyxDvr4kFwZe09Pqb_cVHhRCI8YwKbnrOCjE9gWfj8mN/s1600/P9080678.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEip550HXPQ82ZXIBhdzghkfOkWNW2g0idgAKJKWoNNu32I5K7RfbTR9zbyNXMzlfrmQs6ocMa2qURAkNVB6BVmePGO0r9l9sbdfIyxDvr4kFwZe09Pqb_cVHhRCI8YwKbnrOCjE9gWfj8mN/s400/P9080678.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5650577977806061682" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhV3OaGae4UD1hbnPKqb0YEE90mJBTHTvhHuzq7P_VNFwBhWHmWJaoWgya1HjFjuDmcdxRCwmN-OGmEaWr27WgTY5gu4CySuD3v67L4Q9DViw3SjjMUyS2YUGhx4FvZMwbHzBwwCDl1kyVO/s1600/P9080677.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhV3OaGae4UD1hbnPKqb0YEE90mJBTHTvhHuzq7P_VNFwBhWHmWJaoWgya1HjFjuDmcdxRCwmN-OGmEaWr27WgTY5gu4CySuD3v67L4Q9DViw3SjjMUyS2YUGhx4FvZMwbHzBwwCDl1kyVO/s400/P9080677.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5650577970199753522" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjROpWw6D9-db_7GGon4QgEypd6tSINnAEfByH6V9RhgnEOYibCMN26M64wk3-RsMms-xDD8jgDukKnhDJsdPA5gzugGzsRer5tOkMIq8dvIWVNSTQjf1gU8OJfBsS1iN24Le-NA1xttU7t/s1600/P8310674.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjROpWw6D9-db_7GGon4QgEypd6tSINnAEfByH6V9RhgnEOYibCMN26M64wk3-RsMms-xDD8jgDukKnhDJsdPA5gzugGzsRer5tOkMIq8dvIWVNSTQjf1gU8OJfBsS1iN24Le-NA1xttU7t/s400/P8310674.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5650577966330444946" /></a><br />Hi to all, here's is my newest creations.

<br />Here is yet another new creation I finished yesterday. This wonderful antique wrought iron baby crib was found at my first ever trip to the famous Brimfield Antique Show in Massachusetts in July 2011. There I was in heaven. So many wonderful things as far as the eye can see....block after block, wonderful antiques just waiting to be discovered, looking for their new home. This was discovered amongst wonderful flowers and plants and other terrific rusty weathered goodies. I fell in love! The old white original paint..a little rusty and chippy....just a little, not too much. Perfect. I too one look and knew exactly what i was going to do with it. I couldn't wait to get it back to my shop, order a new foam cushion and down pillows, then get to creating something wonderful.
<br />I started by taking a vintage chenille bedspread in pink with a ruffled edge. It had a few spots of missing chenille on the top and was too thin (summer weight) to be used for slipcovers. Perfect for the skirt. The new block of custom cut foam was covered with batting, then I fashioned the cushion using some of my most favorite fabrics in pink and aqua with big beautiful cabbage roses. One side is pink with roses, the other side aqua with roses. I love to be able to change a look in a minute. I had some wonderful wedding ring chenille fabric that matched the skirt perfectly, that became my cushion front. I have finally collected enough vintage chenille bedspreads in a variety of colors and patterns to make all the pillows from chenille. SOOOO COZY !!!

<br />WOW!! i just love this sofa. It is the second one i have done for a lovely customer in California. Once I finished, I stepped back and just sighed. How beautiful I thought....aaahhhh. I have another one I will be doing soon in aquas and whites with a matching chair. I cant wait...Also I just finished a wonderful chaise lounge. I covered it with a vintage chenille bedspread in pink and white with an all over rose pattern and a wonderful ruffle bottom. Oh so pretty.

<br />I made a chair similar to this a few years back. the internet is a wonderful network of storage and ideas. My client found an old etsy ad for that chair and thought it was perfect for her home office alongside her grandmas hot pink antique shawl. Grandma must have been an awesome lady. My kinda gal for sure.
<br />I was lucky enough to have the same fabric and trim in stock, but even luckier to find this awesome antique chair on wheels, like the last. It was perfect !!
<br />I just received pictures from her and was excited to share it with you all. It's rare to see my items in their new home and love to get pictures from my customers. I love the bursts or hot pink colors of Grandmas shawl and the chair looks against her charcoal painted built ins. I was happy to make this for her and to help her showcase a family heirloom.

Most are for orders from my online shop at ETSY.COM . I will soon be making a few sofas as well. The weather has been beautiful , so I have been bringing them all out to show off the the world (or at least Union Street). The blue, yellow and white pieces on the right were made for a customers 90 year old mom. She is moving into her new apartment next week and these will be a lovely surprise for her. It was my pleasure to make them. A very special endeavour indeed. Her inspiration for me was a wonderful designer, Makenzie Childs. She mixes fabrics and trims in a lovely way. Her upholstered pieces are whimsical and wonderful. When i delivered them today, My client was so thrilled. She said they came out even better than she ever could have imagined. I was thrilled !! The next order I will be making is a wing back chair made from a clients Mothers bedspread. It is a beautiful bubble gum pink wedding ring design with beautiful thick fringe trim. She has passed awhile back and her daughter is so pleased to have this as a wonderful memory of her. Yet another very important and meaningful project, I am honored to have the privilege. I would love to make some thing for you.

It will be shipped to California, then put in a container to Japan . It will be one of the showcase pieces in a new shabby chic store. This is one of my first orders to go overseas. I feel Incredible that my creations are being shared with the world. Chenille bedspreads remind me of my youth. Carefree and Cozy. It gives you that warm and fuzzy feeling. I imagine the new owner snuggling up in it after a long day of work, being enveloped by its cuddly softness. Unwinding from a long day with a cup of tea and a good book?<br />I have recieved many other orders for these through my etsy shop and I am so excited to make the next one....wait to see....hugs, Donna :-)Vintage Chic Furniturehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09660200191571351473noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5064750971071412699.post-65448470649039326432011-07-09T16:24:00.000-04:002011-07-09T16:33:53.358-04:00super cute chair with white chenille bedspread slipcover and yummy ruffled trim<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgwXUf6WsVnR_3X8uTHabm4RBZtz6VDXjfUsKcT70m2oC8ZDngTMwWqfvpJyLL7rAemsT9_pe0k8hE7JidEgXteBe_8o2O70MWSS8njQ2hV-Wn2m6LPuNV5JnhPIFtprrFqA6Po88Iocdu7/s1600/P7090398.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgwXUf6WsVnR_3X8uTHabm4RBZtz6VDXjfUsKcT70m2oC8ZDngTMwWqfvpJyLL7rAemsT9_pe0k8hE7JidEgXteBe_8o2O70MWSS8njQ2hV-Wn2m6LPuNV5JnhPIFtprrFqA6Po88Iocdu7/s400/P7090398.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5627453512308943842" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiRu1rGEp-Ood7XHgpMQzlPSGUtWHTvNz2BS3As4iGkU0e4x2TxvIPiZGezAkpecKx1_NYylU5R7JV0KMhBWvv1OkjUjt9sRtb-FoQwlx9oDYg_V7AFL6VzMqTiUXzkZblbHxDcuNTWFfSq/s1600/P7090399.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiRu1rGEp-Ood7XHgpMQzlPSGUtWHTvNz2BS3As4iGkU0e4x2TxvIPiZGezAkpecKx1_NYylU5R7JV0KMhBWvv1OkjUjt9sRtb-FoQwlx9oDYg_V7AFL6VzMqTiUXzkZblbHxDcuNTWFfSq/s400/P7090399.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5627453493693472706" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgK3GJzfkCIFadgs4pDwUu5CdRZh0NEt2tUUbY7ddgHXIlZmQrx2dBrBdL0aDNyuRY1EZ63hvgZiOq1C3xbBC_ASW1g4sKmQpHebwesJY6uDkjPmJNLqv0r6DjrW3lVoajKZuSY01FJUSJy/s1600/P7090401.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgK3GJzfkCIFadgs4pDwUu5CdRZh0NEt2tUUbY7ddgHXIlZmQrx2dBrBdL0aDNyuRY1EZ63hvgZiOq1C3xbBC_ASW1g4sKmQpHebwesJY6uDkjPmJNLqv0r6DjrW3lVoajKZuSY01FJUSJy/s400/P7090401.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5627453490090755810" /></a><br />OMGOSH!! I just love this chair and the adorable little slipcover i made from a rose pattern vintage chenille bedspread.This chair has some wonderful lines and the prettiest curvy legs. I painted the legs white and chose my newest favorite chenille fabric. it is a thick 100% cotton with the prettiest all over rose pattern. The same bedspread fabric was used on the last sofa I made, which by the way, sold in 4 days. It is getting shipped on Monday to a lovely lady in Arizona. I am also enjoying making ruffles, they feel so soft and pretty. I think it adds romanticism and femininity. i have just listed it in my etsy shop. be sure to take a look. www.vintagechicfurniture.etsy.com . hugs, Donna :-)Vintage Chic Furniturehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09660200191571351473noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5064750971071412699.post-56684398189853164972011-06-30T21:58:00.000-04:002011-06-30T22:22:55.974-04:00OMG!

This one is my best yet!! I love creating these slipcovered pieces. I use chenille bedspreads mixed with lovely roses fabrics in shades of white, pinks and aquas. I love brush fringe and have just scored 7 rolls of thick white fringe on ebay. I bought all they had, found in some warehouse- new old stock. awesome. i am already on my second roll (at 72 yards each, lol!!) <br />The fabrics are just yummy with beautiful roses and scrolls. there are 3 pillows included with luxurious down inserts, the center pillow is an awesome and rare needletuft chenille with a pretty flower design. <br />I was lucky enough to collect two beautiful white vintage chenille bedspreads with an all over rose pattern. They are some of my favorites to work with. They are so thick and durable. The ruffle trim is 600 linear feet long and took one entire bedspread. You can find this at my etsy store along with many more lovely things to beautify your home. Big hugs, donna :-)<br />http://www.etsy.com/listing/66375846/shabby-chic-sofa-chenille-bedspreadVintage Chic Furniturehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09660200191571351473noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5064750971071412699.post-70447855631027324482011-06-20T23:37:00.000-04:002011-06-20T23:40:56.676-04:00King Jeffrey<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjdhJNdZwsF2JSg8sCoKLCP3iRS9LytjntgyVls4WLq2i75d_IG4n60qZNiBKmoiEOx6G4UEgpSZ7by6LQH68jBkVlG08orX8ANlur0zF5HeoRLQhSp2UIDZ0zUPP1UnWqrB4fYmQ2absWf/s1600/the+cat+prince+and+the+pea+4.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 267px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5620512773214548386" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjdhJNdZwsF2JSg8sCoKLCP3iRS9LytjntgyVls4WLq2i75d_IG4n60qZNiBKmoiEOx6G4UEgpSZ7by6LQH68jBkVlG08orX8ANlur0zF5HeoRLQhSp2UIDZ0zUPP1UnWqrB4fYmQ2absWf/s400/the+cat+prince+and+the+pea+4.jpg" /></a><br /><br /><div>Hmmm hade trouble uploading pics...retrying..</div>Vintage Chic Furniturehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09660200191571351473noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5064750971071412699.post-30205921380978536562011-06-20T23:06:00.000-04:002011-06-21T00:02:35.779-04:00Jeffey The Store Kitty King of Vintage Chic Furniture<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi5hWEswgE6YrAPwdy_AoOJy19A35M6KmPotqGDmtGMIRAX_IuTUFg2aL6eoLLhmFwLk0CAh4qmzB7raq8vrkoEG1NG1HsCATui9Px5alSjyn5JxvDyolXWuKb-KIH2aoBUXmqXEtEKdnQv/s1600/the+cat+prince+and+the+pea+4.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 267px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi5hWEswgE6YrAPwdy_AoOJy19A35M6KmPotqGDmtGMIRAX_IuTUFg2aL6eoLLhmFwLk0CAh4qmzB7raq8vrkoEG1NG1HsCATui9Px5alSjyn5JxvDyolXWuKb-KIH2aoBUXmqXEtEKdnQv/s400/the+cat+prince+and+the+pea+4.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5620518167509001682" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhSso6ZvCsW7L4mNJCtDHVcp-kDrSCPYWdQvCJfI6LkznfRk-m2S3Kw-CP9XLf_BfmcAjqWWJj5xtcDBlbUKWdLgOy0CEAG7AHGz6B-vm4yBRkSNT3UFODS9Sz2VJ60uBTecA2oSz2FWirr/s1600/the+cat+prince+and+the+pea+5.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 267px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhSso6ZvCsW7L4mNJCtDHVcp-kDrSCPYWdQvCJfI6LkznfRk-m2S3Kw-CP9XLf_BfmcAjqWWJj5xtcDBlbUKWdLgOy0CEAG7AHGz6B-vm4yBRkSNT3UFODS9Sz2VJ60uBTecA2oSz2FWirr/s400/the+cat+prince+and+the+pea+5.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5620516633690800994" /></a><br />OMG!! This is the GREATEST cat ever !!! He actually let us put a crown on his head while he posed for us. He is the best and coolest cat I've ever had!! My friend Thea Couglin fabulous baby photographer <a href="http://www.theacoughlin.com/">http://www.theacoughlin.com/</a> , does some wonderful newborn photos. She has used many of my furniture pieces for her shoots. After the last newborn shoot at my store, we placed Jeffrey on the set , put a crown on his head, and he happily posed for us. Can you believe a CAT ??sat there and posed??? AND let us put a crown on his head ??? while he sat there ??? As far as cats go, that's almost unheard of !!! He is just the most awesome kitty EVER!! Also, in my older posts, you will see that he was on the front cover of April 2010 Life At Home Magazine. He is a local celebrity. He could be a professional Kitty Model :-)<br /><br />www.vintagechicfurniture.comVintage Chic Furniturehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09660200191571351473noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5064750971071412699.post-85666777707913125162011-04-18T23:47:00.000-04:002011-04-19T00:06:14.562-04:00new wonderful french gray pieces<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEglLOZAuo0p_T-42fnFdhSpdL58275wz08-aoaMxG-3U4mtO-y58a4PqxXmaL_nwWz0LQNIMQ9_Pm2N4sSdn8krdG4M5HSQhyH9rfDcp-cEA60BJxAQ22a091UWoFI8XpC4hRDdTRcZRUYO/s1600/new+etsy+4-4+021.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center;

I have sold <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_1" class="blsp-spelling-error">my</span> of these rather quickly and one of the best things is that grey or gray and white <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_2" class="blsp-spelling-error">matches</span> everything!! they are both neutral colors. here are some of my creations- i hope you love them as much as I do!!

I just love each and every one of my newest creations. I have found my new niche. these are my newest endeavour- an entire living room set. A sofa, chair and ottoman done with roses chenille bedspread fabrics with pom pom fringe trim and different rose fabrics in lovely shades of aquas and pinks. cozy down pillows. this set makes decorating effortless, just add some end tables and a coffee table. perhaps in white or aqua distressed?? i have a wonderful round Victorian table that i think will look great with it- i will have to paint that this week to display with it. I have some club chairs and wingbacks i will nee to get covering soon as well. I will need to make some custom ottomans and footstools as well. I just want to fill my whole store with fabulous chenille bedspread slipcovered pieces. I need more room, lol!! see there and my other pieces at <a href="http://www.vintagechicfurniture.com/">http://www.vintagechicfurniture.com/</a> thanks for looking :-) hugs, Donna</div></div></div></div></div>Vintage Chic Furniturehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09660200191571351473noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5064750971071412699.post-12406441251579220792011-02-01T20:38:00.000-05:002011-02-01T21:20:57.784-05:00OMG!

I am amazed every time I make a new slip covered sofa with lovely vintage chenille bedspreads and wonderful rose fabrics. Each one is just so pretty and unique. I go a little crazy with mixing different patterns of fabrics, each with a different lovely sprays of roses, swags and scrolls. I find I am most loving the white pink and aqua combos. I love to use a bunch of different vintage trims; bedspread fringe, pom pom, and brush fringes. </div><br /><br /><br /><div> One of the things that makes them so wonderful is you don't have to live with just one fabric that you love. You can always change around the cushions and pillows to get a whole different look. It keeps us interested and we don't get bored with something we really love. </div><br /><br /><br /><div> I am so excited about these and can't wait to make more. I have been on the hunt for more good vintage and antique sofas, love seats and chairs that i can transform. With that, I am also hunting out fabulous chenille bedspreads to use. Keep an eye out for more of My chenille slipcovered creations in my <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_0" class="blsp-spelling-error">Etsy</span> store <a href="http://www.vintagechicfurniture.etsy.com/">http://www.vintagechicfurniture.etsy.com/</a> .
