Chairs Redesigned

Introducing 'City' and 'Summer Breeze', two new chairs for this month. Both chairs were recovered and redesigned with modern designer fabric giving them a twist from their traditional Queen Anne form. Need some buzz in your loft or craft room? Come pick them up from our Duluth Studio or buy them from our Etsy Store. Call before showing up at the Studio as I am always out buying fabric or salvaging a chair.

    Thank you Sheila, I had to break away from Urbanmotifs and define the chair business really well. I just started to market and promote the company on Hometalk and Facebook.

    We will be having classes on upholstery basic for small and simple chairs, headboards and benches starting this summer. So keep watching!

    And thank you for liking my page, it means a lot to me!!!

    Thanks 4S for watching my back, and thanks for your kind words!

    Thomas, the wing back chairs can be a bit tough for you to start if this is the first time you are doing upholstery. But it's not impossible! Sewing is very little and a lot of stapling is required. I will be uploading a video very soon on how to recover a wing back.

    Start stripping the chair, start from bottom first that is the black fabric under neath the ...»

    chair. Keep all the pieces and use them as templates, label them so you know which belong to where.

    I don't sew, and work on the cording but it's not rocket science. It could first be a bit tricky but even if you watch a couple videos you'll know how to start on a chair. I'd suggest you start with a smaller chair, like a dining chair and then work towards tacking the wing chair.

    Love the spiced wing chair in your etsy store. What is your address to your Duluth Studio?

    Michelle, The 'Spiced' chair has been a hit, this is the second chair I am making custom order. You want to come check it out in person? Call me before you come, all the finished chairs are at my home in Johns Creek (they will move this weekend) but you can see work in progress on other chairs at the Duluth Studio.

    The address is 3111 Main Street Duluth GA 30097 ...»

    The Spiced fabric also comes in blue color and is really cool

    Pam Farrrar loves these chairs. They are a great update to the usual wingback chair.
