Colorful Makeover


As I mentioned in my previous post, there are a ton of furniture projects in our atelier right now, I'm happy to say that the number went down to 9 :)
These lovely wooden feet were a score of our last USA travel at a thrift store.


And we choose all the materials and colors according to this lovely embroidery.


The feet became unrecognizable after their colorful makeover.


I built the body of the ottoman from salvaged wood. Normally the body doesn't need this much wood, but for this model it is required.


Last finishing touches!


Tadaaa! The upholstery was a challenge, the various layers, piping and the fact that the fabrics are striped made it very difficult, but the result was worth the trouble!


This pouf will definitely catch everyone's eye :)


I love the quirky cat :)



Except for the foam and webbing inside, all material is either vintage, salvaged or upcycled.
