trellis stool makeovers

as you probably know, i have been in love with 
these trellis stools for-ever.
i finally bought my self a pair right after christmas.
(sadly, i just found out that jc penny no longer carries them!
i am so glad i pulled the trigger when i did.)
patti, a client of mine, also bought a pair.
i absolutely love how she chose to cover her pair of these fun little stools:
i love the large scale fabric, and the fact that the stools
aren't a "perfect" match...
yesterday afternoon, i finally got around 
to recovering mine:
i already had the fabric...i didn't want to do anything too crazy or expensive, since these will for sure
change when i get to decorate house #6. 
i think they add a nice little dose of fun to the room.

oh, and a big thank you to knock off decor for featuring my anthopologie lampshade yesterday!
you can see the feature here.



happy weekend everybody!

    These are great! I love how different the fabrics are and yet they both work beautifully.

    I think they are gorgeous and I love how the size of the houndstooth is exaggerated! But as you see here, I am addicted too! xoxo Shelli

    Would you be so kind as to share your fabric name and source? I think I need some for my house too!

    Carrie, I bought the fabric about a year ago from fabric guru.com.
    They cycle through their fabrics a lot, so I am
    Not sure if they still have it...
    :)

    Love the fabric you chose. Those are great stools and so versatile for when you move. You could literally put them in any room in your future home with a change of fabric.

    Both of these look amazing and the base is so interesting too. I love using stools in pairs like this - so versatile to split up but they look so great side by side too...well done!
