Befores and Afters
I’m thrilled to bits that the chairs I’ve had covered in Sevilla Rock are featured on Design*Sponge’s Befores and Afters today!
This one was a gift for Peter Slingsby, who let me use his records of Cederberg rock art. Thanks Pete!
This glider was a rather lucky find in a very cottagey furniture store.
And this is one of those Befores that are so bad, the After can’t help but be an improvement!
To buy yardage of my Sevilla Rock upholstery-weight fabrics, visit my Etsy shop.
WOW!!!! your beautiful fabric did change the life of those poor old chairs!!!
I can’t stop looking at these….
and that Peter Slingsby fella is a very lucky man.
Awesome finds. The fabric works perfectly in all three types of chairs too. What a great way to show the diversity of your upholstery fabrics.
Bravo.

The before and afters are incredible! I left a post on Design*Sponge saying your fabrics are even more gorgeous in person- which they are!
My sister adores the fabric I bought her and has made the cutest toys with them- I’ll have to take some photos for you.

wow, wonderful Heather. I especially love that white glider with your gray/white pattern
Wow wow wow. They are amazing; I want to sit in them immediately! Does this mean you have found a great upholsterer in Cape Town? Please oh please could you share the name?

i’m not surprised, they are all stunning heather. i’m looking around my house for something to re-cover as we speak! all your fabric is such an achievement, you should be really proud.
What a beautiful blog you have! Great style too
the last one is especially awesome! just plugged your ikea tea towels over at the claw. have a great weekend!~

Everyone, thanks so much for your lovely comments – quite overwhelming the response on D*S!
@Michelle – please show me the pics of the things your sis made!
@the sloth @ skermunkil – I used DAG on the corner of Bree and Hout in the city. They were great and very affordable.
@sherri – thanks for the plug on your always fabbo blog.
Have a nice weekend, everyone!
*this close* to shipping you my sofa.
Fantastic afters! I have one of your (red) sevilla rock tea towels which I have draped over the back of an armchair – it looks great …
Your fabric looks beautiful on those chairs! You must be very pleased. I recently tried restoring a chair too, but with Lara Cameron’s fabric.
Gorgeous. Nothing like a before and after to make you smile. BTW I’ve passed on a “lovely blog” award to your lovely blog which I think is simply a visual feast!
