A marriage made in heaven... ok, well an upholstery shop

meet

~ mr frenchie~

here is the tale of how he found love
with
~miss frenchie~

a pair of swivel chairs

that the hubs

~loved~

 were here before

~miss frenchie~

came to live with us

remember how i saved little miss frenchie
from the dump

 from this post

we moved her to the windows..

tried a table in the corner...

not
 working for me
or the hubs
he loved sitting there in that corner

i got this rug from home depot
just to have something for the settee to sit on
it is perfect, as it is cheap and the puppy is still.. well in
~training~

but with a cute mug like that
it's worth a few new rugs

sorry back to the
~love story~
the chairs went to the other side of the room

to create a conversation area

it worked, the hubs now joins me in the

living room to watch tv
"have favorite chair"
~will travel~

he will go anywhere to sit in his favorite chair
those swivel rockers

 are the best for rocking babies to sleep

and he is so good at that

the tree was here for the holidays

and that miss frenchie gots lots of use

Christmas morning

when i took it down

there was a big gaping hole waiting for the perfect

~reading chair~

this wasn't it
back upstairs please...

i started thinking wing back...

but could i find the perfect fabric

that would look good with 

~miss frenchie~

i had the curtain fabric to consider as well
so...
i looked and looked...
i went to the design studio

and found a fabric to die for

yummm

it was perfect in every way except the price

over $100 a yard!!!!
well i needed 6 yards to cover up this old

$50 wingback chair i found on
~craigslist~

enter my uber talented local upholster

~Julie~

she beefed up this

 ~bad boy~

he sat in her studio until i could find the perfect

fabric

i was browsing in

hancock fabric one day...

~wow~

hoping this would work

cause i just loved it.....

i bought a yard to bring home

&

my mind was swirling....

french settee

french writing

yes!!!!

 i think this will work with
miss frenchie

i couldn't wait to see them together

this would surely make a

~handsome couple~

voila
now i think this will be

~my~

reading chair

can you see the beautiful sunset

from this chair

julie put so much perfection

into her work

painting his legs the same color

as hers

and that expensive fabric i liked so well...

turns out julie had that same sample book

and had a project for some of it

so...

we split a yard

and this is what i got

2 of these

i have had this striped fabric for ages

and the expensive fabric was just what it needed

to take it to a new level

so another look at the happy couple

i have a feeling an

~offspring~

is in the works

can you think

~foot rest~

we have had some awesome

sunrises

&

sunsets

lately

but today i am sitting in my

new corner looking at snow...

expecting at least a foot tonight

yikess!!!

so i will be sitting here...

~inside~

watching it come down

with a  cup of hot cocoa
