Giving new life to vintage furniture

Yup, I could wake up every day to dandelions dancing around my head. This Dandelion Field Bed from Chair Couture goes to show that reupholstered vintage pieces can look current and chic as well as aid the sustainable living cause.  I love the idea of pairing old with the new and creating one-of-a-kind pieces.  When we opened our shop a few years ago, we outfitted a vintage settee with a plaid pattern.  I called it a love story- Miss Victoria meets Mr. Lumberjack.

Here are a few other wonderful reupholstered finds that inspire us to think creatively when furnishing our homes.
