@chairwhimsy: A contrasting welt cord (that little rope of trim along the seams) is one of the easiest ways to make an upholstery project look intentional instead of homemade. Match it to the fabric and it disappears. Contrast it — even something as simple as black and white — and suddenly the shape of the piece reads as a design choice, not an accident. This is the detail people notice without knowing why they're noticing it. Which welt cord would you have picked here — the black or the white? And when you're upholstering, do you usually match your trim to the fabric or go bold with contrast? Tell me below. #upholsterytips #weltcord #chairmakeover #diyupholstery #furnitureflip
