This gorgeous 1930s country bed was reupholstered in one-of-a- kind "dandelion" fabric. Margaret Elman, the founder of Chair Couture, finds beautiful French antiques and gives them a new life by reupholstering them in fabrics that she has designed herself. We posted about Margaret's work previously on Apartment Therapy, but when we saw the Marianne bed that is part of the Green Collection, we had to share with our readers. More photos after the jump...


Each one of her projects is given a name, since they are all unique. They are reupholstered in fabric that is specifically made for that piece. Her materials for the Green Collection are nature inspired and her goal is to bring the outdoors to your home. Marianne, with its gray-green patina frame covered in "dandelion" fabric has so much presence that we could see her becoming a focal point in any bedroom.

omg I am in love....
This made me go "oooh!"
beautiful bed... and the photographic fabric is an inspired pairing... but that particular image makes my nose itch
Makes me want to go...
Gorgeous. Would be like lying in a field as a child. I like. A lot.
How would this look at night?
It's pretty - only would fit my style if it was only one color though and no design.
oooo ahhh!
Beautiful!!!!!
Interesting. I am not a fan of photographic fabric, but this one is moving into new territory. I'd still like it better if it were more abstracted, though -- maybe using one of those Photoshop filters, or something...
love it, maybe they could do seasonal swapouts for the designs?
