Deckchairstripes MannequinsP1040553

We commissioned Lucy from Corset Laced Mannequins to make us a model for our new shop – she is called Betty, is absolutely gorgeous and as she is covered in our Darts fabric with fuchsia lacing on the back, she is called Darting Betty – a very racy little number!

Lucy made the mannequins seen on ‘The Paradise’ now airing on TV on Sundays BBC1 – and we are sure that Clara and Denise would approve of our version.

Deckchairstripes make it to Hollywood…..again.

Deckchairstripes have made it to Hollywood again. This time in the brand new  Jim Carrey and Steve Carell movie  Incredible Burt Wonderstone

Check us out at 1.58 onwards. We supplied several different fabrics for the movie including Cricket and Javelin and it was Cricket that featured in this scene. This is just one of the films and media we have featured in, Nanny McPhee and the Big Bang being a bit of an office favourite.

It looks like it going to be a stripey spring with more to come.

Deckchairs covered in Vintage Deckchair Canvas

For those of you who prefer the ‘Retro’ look of days gone by we can cover our Deckchairs with any of our vintage look deckchair fabrics for you. These will appeal to those of you who want a fifties feel to your covers instead of more modern interpretations, but with brand new canvas.

If you have an existing traditional wooden folding deckchair that needs recovering and would like to recover it yourself with a vintage look, you will need 1.5 metres of fabric and a pack of upholstery nails – select from our  Vintage Deckchair Canvas range

We have some lovely bobble fringes which you can trim a deckchair canopy with if your deckchair has one!
