DIY: How to Reupholster Chairs

I got these great chairs from the flea market this past weekend, I love the style, as it reminds me of the Parker Hotel in Palm Springs, but they clearly need a face lift! Reupholstering chairs is a super easy way to give any old looking chair a fresh face. I stopped by the fabric store and got myself 3/4 yard of Sunbrella striped fabric. I love Sunbrella's outdoor fabrics because they won't fade in the sun- making it perfect for these outdoor iron chairs. All you need are scissors, a staple gun, and a screw driver.
 

Spring/ Summer 2013 Trends

For Spring/Summer 2013, fashion and interior designers alike rediscover the palm tree print for a truly tropical holiday nostalgia. As you already know, we here at Bungalow1a adore the palm print, so we are very excited to see that it is being reinvented. The palm print is coming back  with digital ombré overlays and mirror image compositions in a sophisticated lush green palette. We hope the tropical prints inspire you this season!
