Something Old, Something New

It’s not often something new comes along that solves a problem that’s a recurring issue with many clients. But like most “new” ideas, it’s really just a twist on something that’s been around a long time. The problem? What should I put at my kitchen sink to save my floors and my back?

One, Two, Three…”Will It Move With Me?”

The upholstered furniture in their starter home found new life after being recovered.

One, Two, Three…three houses later and the furniture still works. It began in a client’s first home. The living room needed updating with a completely new color scheme. Slipcovering the sofa and recovering the club chairs in soft blues and greens gave the room a fresh new look. As soon as the furniture was installed, our client moved into a new home on the opposite side of town. The new living room was larger so additional furniture was needed. We added two Hickory Chair spool chairs, larger end tables and new lamps. By selecting furniture that will “move with you”, my clients were able to use all their furniture in three separate homes.
