The Settee!

 

This is the Beginning!

All green!

When I saw this settee at an antique shop I fell in Love with it!

I have been painting

 but not reupholstering anything for several years!

 



 

I thought this can't be difficult.



 

As I kept taking it apart I realized this is older than I thought.

This Settee has to be from the early 1900's or maybe before! Lol!

I haven't seen straw in furniture before!

Maybe others have but I haven't!



There was even a feed sack used!

I guess they used what they had in them days!



Well, with a lot of love & some hard work it turned out pretty cute!

(At least I thought so! Lol)

I wanted it to still have that vintage look but with a little up dating!

So I painted it light grey with a little darker grey accents!

Then I covered it with a dark grey velvet!

Now it's in my shop window!

 

 

 

Waiting for it's New Owner!
