Our store as seen by Logan Cyrus
January 24th, 2012Thanks to Logan Cyrus Photography, those of you who can’t make it to our store can finally see where the magic happens. Logan is a Charlotte-based freelance editorial photographer currently working towards his undergrad in photography at The Art Institute of Charlotte. He contacted us out of the blue and offered to take some pictures in exchange for… well nothing, so how could we decline? And the results are more then we could have hoped for. You can see a few extra photos of our store on his blog.
When you are in the market for professional photography, especially portraits, Logan comes highly recommended, not only for his skills and results but also for his great attitude. Now don’t expect him to work for free, the man has to make a living, we just got lucky.
Thank you so much Logan, and thank you for your service in the Middle East!
Rolls upon rolls of amazing fabrics

What once was old…
December 6th, 2011We love to see what becomes of our fabric finds once they leave our store, and l+j Industries in Huston, TX definitely takes our fabrics to the next level. Twin sisters Lynne and Julia Schafer restore once neglected and forgotten vintage chairs, ottomans, benches and anything else they find along the way, using the coolest fabrics they can find (from us and other sources).
l+j Industries miniature loveseat reupholstered in Luna Textiles Hoop Nod.
l+j Industries patchwork pillows.
They even found a way to make pillows and seat covers out of small swatch samples, can you say “labor of love”.
l+j Industries Thonet Chairs reupholstered in Momentum Textiles Romeo’s Champagne Punch
l+j Industries Thonet bentwood chair and Danish modern table for sale on etsy.com
The sisters supreme sell their finished goods online at VERY reasonable prices. Check out this trio for $400! Thonet bentwood chair and Danish modern table on wheels, weeeeee!
You may also take classes at their Huston, TX studio and learn how to reupholster your own treasures.
Well done sister(s)! This is what I would be doing if I was not a fabric pusher.
