Upcycling Chippendale furniture

Some furniture just looks boring and unspectacular, but has a lot of potential that you have to realize. The important thing is that they have to be stable and robust, and the shape has to be somehow cool and special.

We were able to upcycle two Chippendale pieces of furniture for a dear customer. Petra came with a creative fabric from her fabric and quilt shop quilts -and-more.de came to us and had the two pieces of furniture with him. The Viennese weave bench and table were intended to be eye-catching focal points for the store, in keeping with their fabric theme.

Together we then chose a suitable color for the furniture.

The result is impressive: a great gray from Little Greene.

The selected finish: Intelligent Eggshell . This finish is perfect for furniture as it is durable and wipeable. 

The Viennese braid can also be painted very well, but you have to keep a few things in mind: The paint is diluted a little more than usual and then dabbed on with a brush. The Viennese braid must dry thoroughly between color applications. The result is impressive!
