The back cushions looked a little saggy before...but once I boxed them they filled out better, also the cushions can be flipped which helps distribute the wear.
Before...gingham was getting a little bit worn.. you can kind of see where I cut the cushions off, and notice the single row of piping on the back cushions.
See how the front of the arm tapered down...I wasn't sure how to make it look good, I played around with pleats and then chose to seam it...which worked really well. We also made the skirt taller and dropped it from the decking.
After...see the back cushions are now "boxed". She went with a solid tan twill/denim, that way she has a neutral base and can switch out pillows.
Here is the front of the arm where I seamed it to taper it out instead of doing pleats. I thought it would look cleaner that way.
Another after...I love how it changed the feel of the room..more calm and serene with her gorgeous blue walls.
I absolutely love the boxed in cushions!
ReplyDeleteYou never cease to amaze me. I would have never thought of turning those into box cushions. Brilliant!
ReplyDeleteWow! What a difference. The sectional looks brand new!!
ReplyDeleteI really like the boxes cushions. So stylish. And the taller skirt brings this sectional into a new life. Great job.
ReplyDeleteI loved that you brought the skirt up to the decking. It makes the sectional look much more simple. This is my most recent favorite. Great job Shelley!
