I’ve decided to declare Fridays – before and after day at Cheeky Living! Each friday I will post a before and after transformation of a piece of furniture.
Our first before and after is of a vintage modern lounge chair I found at the Plaza Dorrego flea market in Buenos Aires. The chair had a dirty, dingy mustard yellow velvet fabric on it – probably had not been cleaned in 30 years. This chair definitely had potential.
I decided to go with a dark gray velvet fabric which would look nice with a bold colorful pillow on it. The velvet fabric gives is a rich 1940’s look and to jazz things up even more I used black velvet fabric for the welting on the seat and back.
If you have a piece of furniture that needs a makeover and would like some help, email a pic and we’ll post your project on Cheeky Living for everyone to enjoy!
