Box Pleat Slipcover

Hello Sweet Friends.
Hope you are all safe and well.
I want to show you my slipcover with a new box pleat that Lisa from Fabric 8 Slipcovers sewed for me.  
I sent her the bottom cover that came with the sectional and she added the box pleat to give it a more custom look.  
Lisa always does great work.  
If you do not need a full slipcover done but would like to add a little custom to one you have contact Lisa.  
She does not disappoint with her work.













This room works well now for the living space and small dining area.  
I am going to paint or do something to the TV wall cabinet.  
I think I will add blue to this cabinet to bring a little more color into the room.  
I know the room looks very white but if I could capture better pics you would see how pretty the whites are in this room.  
I am looking for a blue and white rug to bring more color to the floor.





This is how we really live.  Lots of doggie blankets on the white sectional lol!  
My design assistant likes to sleep on the end of this sectional.  
I found this cute dachshund throw at Home Goods.

  3. This is beautiful Kris abs and the sun you get is wonderful. Finally a sunny day here.

    Buddy looks so cute and I love the Dachshund throw. We have pads and throws. Our dig so much on the couch if we didn't the couch would be destroyed.

    Prayers for you and the family.

  10. Now it's perfect. Such a journey you have with furniture in your small houses! We've been shopping for sofas for like three years, and they are all scaled SOOOO large, and we just can't take anything larger than what we have. I'm almost on the verge of having ours recovered and rebuilt. Your room is lovely Kris, and I'm sure it will work wonderfully for you two, and when (IF) we ever get to have company again! Stay Safe!

  15. Wow, she really does great work. You have a fabulous eye and know exactly what to request. I think you should send a picture to Ikea...they'd never believe that was their sofa!! xo

  16. Hum.m.m. I thought you had already gotten a pretty blue print rug for under your dining table? Maybe I'm going bonkers! I could have sworn.... but oh well... it all looks pretty. I love the touches of blue and the throw is darling and of course "matches" Buddy! With my 3 cats, I have throws on EVERYTHING. I wish I didn't have to as it gets really muddled looking and too much color. And then washing them all theh time..... but guess that's the small price for having loving furbies around us. I bet the TV cabinet would look really great a light blue. I need your painting skills and motivation at my house! xoxo Marilyn

  17. Kris, she did such a great job. Now it looks just right. I can see why little B likes it so well. He has great taste, look at the pretty blanket he chose. I think a blue and white rug would be gorgeous, and a little soft blue on your TV cabinet would be so pretty..Stay well, my friend..xxoJudy

  19. How nice to have something new and pretty to brighten your day. I also have dog blankets (and beds) all over the house.

  20. OH MY....Buddy steals the show!!!!!!!!!!! You can't help but divert your eyes to his nonchalant pose and attitude of, "Welcome to Buddy cottage."

    What a great achievement for Lisa and YOU! That ruffle does it. It gives the sectional, which in its own right is gorgeous, a lift to another level of feminine, shabby cottage white. Kris, another WINNER! And the throw, how perfect is THAT!

  24. The living room looks beautiful and have fun painting! Buddy approves of the throw and looks so cute on the couch. Bosco sits on a sheet on my couch with me at night when I watch tv. During this time it's great having a dog to love and cuddle with. Have a nice weekend.

  27. Love the pleats Kris! I get the throws and blankets, I have to do them too. our kitties love the sofas in the Living Room, and perch on the back of the one under the window. Stay well, xoxo

  28. love your room. Even though you have incorporated multi functions within it, the space is so open and welcoming. Box pleating is just the right amount of detail but not frou frou in the least.
    Plenty of doggie blankets are within my dƩcor language also.
