The slipcover for the settee is part of my current project…..
putting the finishing touches on
the hallway sitting area.
Before the settee was up against the wall so the back did not show.
However when I decided to float
the settee in the center of the hallway the ugly
fabric on the back was a real eyesore!
The fabric was a solid teal chenille and did not
match the pattern on the rest of the settee.
So, I opted to slipcover the settee instead of reupholstering it.
The total project cost about $100.

This picture was taken while
we were finishing the upstairs renovation which is why
things are a little bit messy.

ReplyDeleteSo darling- Sharing it at the party tonight~ thanks for linking up at Feathered Nest Friday!
ReplyDeleteSuch a beautiful seat and such a beautiful space.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful settee and I love your style. I found your link over at Feathered Nest party. Did you make the slipcover yourself? If so, do you have a tutorial for it? I inherited a Victorian sofa from my mom and would love to make a slipcover for it. It too has the carving all around so traditional slipcovers won't work. Yours is the best I've ever seen. Thanks so much for sharing and please let me know if you decide to share a tutorial.
