    1. Thanks my friend. I wish I’d have more than one done though.

  2. The chair looks fantastic. Love it! Yes I’ve seen the little yellow cat toy.

    1. Those sneaky little cats and their toys 😉 so cute! And thank you.

  3. Oh my goodness that chair is just SEXY AF. Love it with the stripes playing off all your b&w! Gorgeous job getting all those lines so straight 😉

    And the kitty toy is just behind the chair (is it a chick?!) lol

    1. Haha thanks. And yes it used to be a chick. Not so much anymore.

  4. you’re the upholstery queen! I wish I could just hire you to do all my work. these chairs look so good!

    1. Thanks Brittany! I wish there’d plural chairs but I didn’t get more than one done yet 😉

  5. Your chair is awesome! I really love it. I also love your sofa and loveseat. I am looking for new furniture myself. Would u mind telling me about them? I’d like to know the brand and where you purchased them if you don’t mind sharing.

    1. Hi Helen, they don’t sell my sofa in the light colored leather anymore. Which is such a shame. But I linked to the same one at the bottom of my post in the ivory velvet which is super soft and nice too. I love my sofa and have had it for many many years already. Hope that helps a little.

  6. I love how this turned out Julia! I’ve been eyeing that fabric and love how it goes with the brass. Great addition to your desk area!

  7. Haha, yes! I spotted the toy! Took me a minute though 🙂 This looks great – I love the black and white stripe with the brass, great bold combo. I’ll be interested to hear about the wipeability of the fabric. I need to find a good wipeable fabric for when I do my kitchen bench this year!

    1. I’ll certainly let you know how it holds up. It would look great on a kitchen bench

    Julia, you never fail to impress with your creativity and color combinations. I love the mix of animal prints, black and white stripes along with gold and green accents. I am still pining for the large round mirror that you cleverly mix with your designs.

    1. It’s very handy 😉

    I’m in love with this! The stripes make the brass that much better!

    1. Thank you. I don’t think I’ll ever get sick of black and white stripes.

  10. your new chair looks fantastic and tackling stripes plus lining them up so perfectly, talk about hard – and you knocked it out of the park!

    1. Thanks Katrina. It was tricky and the reason I’m not going to redo the others any time soon 😉

    1. Thanks Jennifer, I don’t think you can go wrong with brass and black and white stripes and I kinda knew you’d understand 😉

    1. It’s not all that brave. The fabric is cheap 😉

  11. Wow! Your home is so beautiful. I’m in love with everything.

    I also keep my babies’ ashes on my desk – I don’t want to bury them. It’s been five years since I lost my Tigger, and three years since Winnie left and I miss them so much. 🙁

    1. Thanks so much and I’m so sorry about your furry babies I miss mine so much too.

  12. This is so gorgeous, Julia! I love that striped fabric! I’m going to have to think of a place to use it in my home!

    1. Thanks Brynne, it’s awesome that it is wipeable

    Ah so beautiful and BOLD!! That chair is gorgeous!! Such a beautiful simple shape then it hits you with the brass!

    1. Thank you! Now I have 4 more of these chairs that I have no room for but totally want to hoard in my basement because I don’t want anyone else to have them. What’s wrong with me 😉 ?
