What a difference 3 yds can make!!

I am just kicking myself right now for now having a before picture with this ottoman.  I have never been a Leopard person but always appreciate how such a small amount of a wonderful animal print can change the spirit and feeling in a room. 

This ottoman was done in a dark brown velvet but was just so incredibly ‘dead’ in the room.  I took the plunge and bought 3 yards of Old World Weavers leopard velvet. I can’t stop admiring both the ottoman and actually the room.  It has taken a dull, stayed room and brought it to life.  Love the Pierre Frey throws, but then I have been a fan of these since I saw them in Barneys for a million gazillion dollars.  Thankfully our team was able to  get them at a huge discount so they are now affordable for the rest of us.So here we go, 3 yards of the leopard velvet fabric from Old World Weavers,  a staple gun and a glue gun…………could of done it myself but gave in and had the upholsterer whip it off in a few days.

Absolutely gorgeous, don’t you think?
