It happens quite offten when a new client approches me with a question: "What should I do, a slipcover or upholstery on this chair?"
I decided to shine some light on this difficult decorating dilemma. How do we know what is the right choice for that particular chair? The answer lies in the furniture. The upholstery with a new beautiful fabric enhances the shape of the chair. So if it has great bones, priceless wood or antique shape, let it show. Do the upholstery.
If you have an armchair with no visible wood, like a glider chair from Crate & Barrel, a slipcover is the perfect choice because it will hug the chair tightly, and will fit like a glove.
Do you have an already-existing slipcover on the chair that has seen better days? No problem, do a new one. The fabric of your choice will complement your room decor and the custom choice of fabric will be many times more fashion forward than what you will find online.
Every upholstery transforms the chair completely, if it has broken legs, broken springs, lack of foam, we reconstruct the chair before we give it a new look with a new fabric.
Don't be afraid, make your old piece of furniture shine like new.
