eames redux

You guys remember the disgusting old Eames lounger/ottoman I got on ebay...


Seen here on my pink rug with the fabric I planned to put on it - the La Fiorentina I have been obsessed with for years! I have used this fabric in three projects lately - it is the perfect neutral graphic. Look what it did to my lounger!


Do you love it?? I am so happy with how it turned out. I really love changing up a classic piece that people are so used to seeing in leather. It is so different looking, and it makes me happy!
Happy weekend!

Definitely a fun change. I love the neutral fiorentina too. I miss my little bench that I had covered in that colorwave. (Locked away in storage...)

Looks amazing! There's nothing better than getting apiece back from the upholsterer.
