Stool slipcover and a little Annie Sloan chalk paint


My friend KB had this old stool in her attic.  She hated the top of it, but she loved the legs.  She wanted piping and 2 inch box pleats and left the rest up to me.  I drew a sketch of what I was picturing and she loved it.  
Here is the BEFORE/AFTER and if you scroll down to the bottom, you will see that I painted the legs with Annie Sloan Chalk Paint in Old White.  She wants it lightly distressed and I haven't gotten that far yet.  


Here is a picture of the sketch I drew beforehand.  I try to sketch all of my slipcovers to help me picture it in my head before starting.  WARNING:  I'm not the best artist. ;-)

Pillow with border, bench cushion, chair

Client had leftover fabric that she loved but not enough to make a whole pillow so I made a border so she could still use this fabric.

 Here is a better picture of the cane chair I painted and reupholstered.
This cheetah cushion goes on an adorable bench but I don't have a picture of client's completed project.

Chalk painted chair and recover

I found this chair at Goodwill for $15!!  It was gross and didn't smell to hot so I took it completely down to the studs.  I painted it with AS paris gray and recovered it in an oatmeal linen fabric with contrasting piping.
