The (Hybrid) Slipcover Project - Part 4 of 5
The finish line for these chairs is nearly in sight! Since the last chair post, the arm fronts have been covered with strips of fabric backed by a stiff interfacing and attached to the chairs with nail head trim.
Fabric covered buttons were also made and sewn onto the chairs.
The only remaining step is to cover the seat cushions. Once this task is finished, not only will the chairs be done but the Big Boy's Bedroom will be complete. And not a minute too soon. Someone in the house is wondering when his Home Office is going to get some attention...

I love the nailhead trim and covered buttons. The chairs are turning out amazing!
These are coming along beautifully! Love how you have created an upholstered look with a slip cover design. The detalls are wonderful.
I can't tell you enough how amazing these chairs are. I would love to learn how to recover furniture but I'm afraid my sewing skills are like that of a 3 year old. One of these days I might get it right!
Oooh I like these hybrids...very much!
These chairs are turning out beautifully! I can't wait to see Max's room complete!
Janell, you are a woman of so many talents. This definitely looks like a labor of love. I hope Max knows how much his Mom loves him!
Fabulous job Janell! The nailhead trim is absolutely the perfect touch!
What a great room - lots of special details and my favourite - not too juvenile!
Janell, have I told you how amazingly talented you are!! Fabulous chair!

the nail head trim is such a great detail!! These chairs are looking fabulous. Hope Big Boy treats them well ;)
you tackled this project perfectly!
the trim at the bottom of the chairs is gorgeous! and i love the two different thicknesses. everything looks amazing!
I cant believe you covered this yourself, you did just an amazing & professional job. Then again, I wouldn't expect anything less- anything you touch turns to gold!!
Janell, you are seriously AMAZING!
These chairs are looking fantastic. So glad you decided to go the reupholstering (or virtually so) route instead of slipcovering as the shape of these chairs is just too good to hide behind a bunch of fabric.
Love the buttons! It makes the chairs look so much more finished!
You've really done a beautiful job, Janell!
These look fabulous! You have me eyeing some chairs around my house!
That looks amazing! I have a little upholstery project and you just may have given me the motivation to do them myself.
I am so impressed! There is always a project isn't there?
Wow, you are really doing it! You are very inspirational! Love that you are adding the nail head trim. Love that kind of detail for chairs. They are gorgeous so far!
