above: cane barrel chair restyled with Daisy Janie's Maxie fabric in organic cotton hemp canvas.
Wendy from Gussy emailed the Maxie chair before & after back in March - I flipped my lid when I saw it and the many, many others she has redone.
With a talented knack for seeing the good bones and lines in vintage chairs, she refurbishes her finds one by one - giving each a completely unique and original new look. She has a gallery of "unGussy'd" chairs from which customers can select for a redo - and she'll work with you on fabrics, finishes, upholstery and woodwork. You can also buy an already restyled chair in her Gussy etsy shop.
I always, always look at piping details on furniture, and Wendy does this soooo well. A small detail that speaks volumes about the overall quality of the work! Please stop by Wendy's website and check out her chair portfolio.
