2012: A year in chairs

 What a year it has been, looking back at 2012 takes my breath away! It's been an amazing year of rescuing destitute chairs and dressing them up for a fun new start... here's just a few of my absolute favourites from this year, some have been customer's treasures reborn, most I have scavenged along the way. All have been saved from the rubbish heap and are now dearly loved by their owners...
 


 
 I often want to keep my beauties, but always find myself filling my home with the next projects in waiting! I have loads of fabulous new (old) pieces to start on for 2013... it's going to be a great year!

Happy 2013 to you too! xxx

Working on: Cushions

Just completed - 30 cushions for a gorgeous Woden cafe re-do, in T&J fabric designs in custom colours! More pics in situ when the cafe launches soon.


My Herringbone, Moldings, and Fanpod designs have been transformed in coral and stone and complimented by a plain coral. And they look fabulous in the cotton linen canvas!


A little bit like guava gelati... Yummy!

The Bentwood rocking chair

Salvaged, re-upholstered, styled, photographed and finally, SOLD all within 24 hours!
It was originally wearing a revolting polyester corporate green fabric (weird!!) - see the before pic below. Now freshly upholstered with my Fanpods fabric in Peacock. Beautiful.
 It is a style made famous by designer, Thonet - the first appeared in 1860. I do not believe this is an authentic Thonet, however it is likely to have been produced in the late 60s - and is no less spectacular. And grateful for it's rescue!
Above: before and after

 
LOVE IT indeed!

The furniture is all lined up and waiting to start a new life at home with you! They've been neglected, broken down and just plain ugly, now they are all glammed up and they've got a date with a market...





 
It's your chance to buy an original, one-of-a-kind Tango & James piece to add some zest to your nest.
Hope to see you on Saturday, please do come and say hi... and take a seat! xx
