Blue Monday

Happy Monday lovers....It's been a blue kinda weekend for me. Not cause I am sad. Or because I have my giant 30th birthday coming up in 115 days...or because my little girl is going to be 2 or because Oprah is going off the air. No, No, No, none of these things are the cause for my blue Monday.

The fu***king color Blue is the damn cause of my blue Monday because it is driving me to insanity. I am seeing it everywhere, and I feel like If I don't upholster something in blue velvet I am going to have to scratch my skin off. 
I unfortunately don't have much to re-upholster around these parts except my Bed headboard.... which, if you ask me is as good a candidate as any to make my new blue velvet moment. I am going to upholster and tuft the shit out of it and that's that. I will OWN it!

After seeing all these pictures how could I NOT?

The headborad I wanna re-upholster is actually one of Nate's Headboardzzz from HSN and they are actually not that crap. I got the plain white one....I shoulda bought the blue tufted velvet one instead... here


Some more greatness..nothing to do with Nate Berkus or Headboards..just other thing like benches and couches I could potentially upholster in Blue Velvet.

  6. After all those gorgeous pics, I want to do something in tufted blue velvet too! Nice choices! Look at the gorgeous ZR blue/cinnamon velvet fabric I did a sectional in on my Home Page. Love it!

  8. The Mad Men headboard is beyond divine. I'm considered a blue velvet tufted sofa for my family room. Deciding which shade of blue will be most resilient with three kids. Great images!!!

  10. Oh that headboard is going to be goooood. It's probably better you didn't buy the blue version, because I bet you'll find a better quality velvet to use.

    PS 115 days till your 30th? Damn that's almost a half year. You got plenty of time. Wish I could rewind 6 months and be 29 again ;)

  11. Tufted blue velvet is elegant and rich looking and will be still in ten years. I had a blue velvet sofa for years (gone now)...I want to get one for our ski condo.
