As a fabric junkie, I am thoroughly on board with upholstering anything and everything.
Chair seat AND frame? Yes, please.
Headboard AND night stand? Lovely. (I’m dying to try this myself. It can’t be too hard, right?)

P.S. A big shout out to the biggest LGN supporter around. Happy birthday, Daddy. I love you.
Thanks for the great ideas Jenny! Love them both.
OH I LOVE that little table. The possibilities are endless! thanks for the inspiration!!
Jenny, how do you think you would make the nightstand? I saw a picture once of an upholstered Queen Anne console/sofa table with nailheads and almost died, it was so pretty. But I couldn't figure out how one would even start trying to upholster a solid wood piece. I googled a bit but didn't come up with anything. I'm not sure how you would deal with so many edges and nooks and crannies and whatnot.
Love this Jenny. I did this on a dresser having seen a pale beige linen on a Thomasville dresser. I used all mode podge and you can poly or vanish of the top for a real seal.

This post spoke to me, as well, all your posts do. But this one in particular. I love all things upholstered. Fantastic idea with the chair!

I saw an upholstered bookcase in a catalog a while back (I think it was designed by Thomas O'Brien…?) and fell in love. I want it….it was gorgeous
Ah, that table! LOVE it!

I tend to want to paint everything I see…but I love the look of that chest!!! Yes, you try it first and teac us how!! :)
Love the nailheads. They really can do wonders.
if anyone can diy upholster a nightstand it's you. i'd love to see that.
The second photo almost caused me to fall of my chair in an Envy-Faint. Ekkk! That table is amazing.
