I have a thing for using at least two different fabrics when I do custom upholstery on accent chairs for clients or myself. Why the heck not?
An accent chair should never be a yawn moment. To moi, they should not only help to accent your design, they can even be allowed to steal the show.
Let's take a look at some show stoppers shall we?

Okay, so my heart definitely skipped a beat at the first and last photo.
Talk about some bold fabric choices? Love em. What were your faves? Have you tried this with any of your own accent chairs? Holla.

sweet. Be sure to send me a link when your new chairs are done lady.
DeleteMy favorite chairs are the blue and white with yellow backs. I have not done this in my own home, but I think I should.
ReplyDeleteYou must! I can't believe so many people have never done this. It is always my first instinct when reupholstering. Lemme know when u do
DeleteThis post stopped me in my tracks! I'm loving these photos! I'm going to try this out on my next upholstery project! What fun!
ReplyDeleteit is hella fun. Be sure to send me some pics when you do
DeleteI love the idea. I actually have a chair with two different velvet patterns...but it's so subtle that you can't "see" it! :(. I know it's there but not many others.
ReplyDeletelol. subtle is fine. Just love that you own such a beauty
DeleteAlways liked this idea especially when the colors/pattern compliments each other.
ReplyDeleteI think it's safe to say I'm obsessed with the idea. Just always feel like a chair is small enough to go wild and crazy with some mixed patterns, especially if you're afraid to do so otherwise.
DeleteI really like this idea but feel its easy to go wrong. I have never done it but am so tempted! The pictured here are all fab!!
ReplyDeleteNo way lady. In my mind it's just a chair that deserves to have a little fun. I say go for it.
