But enough of that..... here is the latest project I have been working on, along with Queen of Furniture Painting herself, Sandy of Paint Me White
This most gorgeous armchair has had a wonderful transformation as a result of blood, sweat and tears (speaking for myself, it really did literally involve all three!). What an awesome result and our client was very happy I do believe.
In the process of upholstering this chair I somehow mastered the art of double piping and I'm so happy about that I could scream!!!! I was at the point of giving up when 'hey presto', it worked :)
The fabric is an exquisite import from USA. How delicious is it?!?!?!
Trust you all have had a great week and are looking forward to the weekend.

That fabric is deliciously exquisite! That particular shade of blue is so calming and serenity inducing. You've done a great job too; painting all the woodwork white and doing that double piping as well.
Thanks Ange, I've just got back from Canberra and the chair is amazing! What a beautiful job you've done, I'm so thrilled with it. Thanks a zillion, it looks lovely in its home. Anna

I'd have been happy too!
Holy smokes Ange! Incredible!! Congratulations on the double piping. It was clearly worth the blood, sweat and tears, as you've excelled yourselves. You and Sandy have done an amazing job.
For some reason all I can think of is Huey and Gwyneth's "I love it when were grooving together". Do you sing that when you work?
Seriously. It's stunning - bravo!
One word - STUNNING!
Ange that fabric is stunning! I'm in the process of reupholstering a box couch and have all but finished. But I cannot for the life of me figure out how to connect the piping together (it's to go on the front arm facing forward). How did you do that double welting? x
beautiful chair...giving me chair envy right now, hope it's as comfortable as it looks, well done, fabric is great.
What a fabulous job and what a transformation! I love double piping, it's such a neat, clean finish to upholstery, and yours looks great.
Loving the fabric too!
This is beautiful work. You made that chair very happy as well!
Hello Ange, My friend pointed me to your blog. Can't believe how talented you are. Then again, my friend does have great taste, doesn't she, even for someone who lives in Canberra!
You did such a great job on this chair transformation. Love the fabric - such a bright and fun print.
That is amazing Ange! Fabric is stunning, well done! Letitia xx

Btw it's great to see you back on blogger - I'm blaming the Gold Coasts cooler weather, for my lack of recent blog posts - lol

Amazing transformation, I love the fabric and the choice of color. Well done!

Hi Ange, Thanks so much for stopping by my blog and saying hi. Wow, what a find is yours. That blue and white chair is to die for, and I just love all your other DIY and before/afters. Never tire of looking at those. I look forward to seeing more.
