This little sofa gives me alllll the heart eyes. I have a real soft spot for velvet, and especially green velvet. There’s something so rich and lush about it. Hope you enjoy it as much as I do.

Look at this one of a kind piece!!

This chair has been upholstered in a hand made quilt and off set with complimentary fabrics. It’s so unique and such a great hand me down piece.

Look at this beautiful little slipper chair! It’s been upholstered in a floral Charlotte fabric that fits the style just perfectly!

Times, they are a changing!

How much do you love those posters that list the news headlines, popular songs and movies, and the cost of items on your birth year? I totally love them. I love getting a glimpse into the past.

We recently had a client give us such a glimpse. They brought in a receipt for the recovery of 6 dining room chair seats, dated November 8, 1989 done by Trevor Brown Upholstery. It is an actual hand written receipt also - blows my mind!

Spoiler - the price of upholstery has definitely increased in the last 30 years but it is very interesting to see and have an actual receipt from Trevor Brown Upholstery past.

(also, that person must have a meticulous filing system - I can barely find my keys)

Here’s a fun custom upholstered job we did - padded headrest covers for bumper cars! Is there anything our staff can’t do? Well, we can’t limbo but in the field of upholstery, we can do anything!

BEFORE - ouch! Looks like a concussion in the making

AFTER - perfectly padded and excellent colour match

AFTER - the whole gang, ready to roll (well, bump)
