Good Morning, hope you all had a fun-filled weekend
and took full advantage of your extra hour!
Guess what I did with my extra hour?
If you guessed finished the barstool slipcovers.....you win!
Here they are all spiffed up....
Remember the before....
~ Fabric Taraz Spring Suzani $26.99/ yard, 3.5 yards at Hobby Lobby (40% off coupon)
~ Velcro $7 (50% off @ Hancock)
Total Cost - $64.00
I have enough fabric left for a 20 x 20 pillow and also a smaller one for a sweet client. :)
I lined them up so you could see that I took the time to match the pattern, I matched
the backs, fronts and seats, but wasn't feeling perfectionist enough to do that side inset.
I was a little nervous as we sat on them and ate pizza for dinner,
I suddenly FREAKED, I forgot to Scotch Gurad them!!!
If you missed it check out my Scotch Guard test.
I'm off to go shopping, my reward for all that work and $$$ I saved!

I love the fabric you chose! I don't think I've seen a barstool slipcover before, and these ROCK!
I love your fabric and the bar stools look like new! So perfect in your beautiful kitchen.
The barstools look fantastic in that fabric. Matching up the backs was a smart idea that makes them look more professional.
They look darling! The fabric is beautiful!
The bar stools turned out wonderful and I love the fabric. Your kitchen is beautiful.

Beautiful job on your barstools, love the fabric you choose and how you matched the backs so well!
I'm your newest follower and found you from Debbies newbie blog party!
What a great transformation!I have 2 barstools but are rounded at the top & not quite sure how to tackle them but this gives me some ideas :) Thanks so much!
First and foremost, everything about your kitchen is stunning. The backsplash and detail above your stove is drool-worthy. I aboslutely love the fabric you chose! Will there be a how-to later?!
I love the transformation! The fabric is gorgeous!:)

Pam, They turned out beautiful! Wish you lived closer so you could teach me your skills!
Pam they are wonderful, great job! I am loving your kitchen in the background maybe we can get a tour soon???
They are beautiful and your kitchen is lovely! I'm off to see if you have a post about it... ;)
Fabulous! Isn't it nice to have your vision become reality? You did a fantastic job on the slipcovers, they look perfect!
How fantabulous Pam!! I'm in love with them. Makes me want to slip cover our bar seats. What are your thoughts on a slip cover for a Windsor bench? Have you seen the slip covered individual Windsor chairs? I'm wondering if I could do that to our bench in the dining area. You have skills!! Nice job - enjoy them!
Pam, they look so professional. The color and fabric choice works so nicely with all of your beautiful kitchen details. Do you think you will make seasonal slipcovers? Christmas, Summer, etc.???
Beautiful..so talented! I really like your island!
The barstools are absolutely beautiful!

Thank you for sharing, Pam! I can't believe that I'm that lucky client! We absolutely love all of the work you have done on our home. You are amazingly talented and so sweet to work with. How many designers will stand in the rain with you to make sure your house paint is going to look good in all lighting conditions?! You are simply the best!
Your fabric choice is wonderful, it's a nice pop of color, the barstools look terrific.....so glad to follow a blogger with style and talent.

I have those same barstools and am just freaking out cause I love this and want to make those! Thanks for this awesome inspiration!
Congrats on your Debbiedoos feature! Way to go girl, you deserve it!
These look great! I love the fabric too - such a great idea!
Those slips are gorgeous. I meant to leave a comment the other day when Debbiedoos featured you. What a gorgeous kitchen. Hope to see you at my Wow Us Wednesday party some time.
Love your barstools! Your kitchen looks awesome! Saw you at Uncommon Slice of Suburbia!
Debbie
I love love love them! Found you through Kristen at Uncommon Slice of Suburbia!
Wow, these are beautiful! I love the fabric!
Very nice job!
You're a blog star! Congrats on another feature!!!
Love the barstool covers! I have some exactly like that and have been giving them the evil eye wishing they had a pretty patterned fabric instead of the leather. Found your blog through My Uncommon Slice of Suburbia. Question for you. Did you take your own measurements and come up with your own pattern or did you have one that you used? I'm now a follower of your blog!
Thanks for your sweet comments, everyone!
Andrea,
I made a pattern from an old sheet by draping it over the stool and pinning, cutting and tweaking. I'd never made a pattern before, so believe me anyone could do it! I'll work on a tutorial in the next couple days.

So glad you came by my blog!!! Love this makeover, they look great!!!
