Nailhead Trimmed Furniture
July 4, 2010 in Chic, Hottest Designers, Living room
I’ve become slightly obsessed with upholstered nailhead trimmed furniture. After reupholstering and trimming my antique piano chair today, my minor obsession definitely grew to a medium one. Did you ever try adding nailhead trim to anything? It’s seriously fun (have no idea why) and it looks so neat (well, that’s probably why)! Now I’m in total “what can I trim next” modus. Here’s some of my inspiration:
*
Burnham Design placed two gorgeous stools underneath this console table. They are of course upholstered and decorated with nail heads. Love it?
*
The nailhead trim is a classic on dining chairs, here seen in a chic black and white dining room designed by Kelly Hoppen.
*
This living room featured on Decorati showcases a red pouf side table with nailhead trim detail. I think this detail is pretty cute. What do you think?
*
Another pouf with nailhead details is visible in this chic little girls bedroom, designed by Massucco Warner Miller.
*
Take a look at the console table in the back. Better pic below:

This is the same console table. I love how you can add interesting details like on this console table with nailhead trim. Images via Decorati.
*
This console table featured on House to Home is one of my absolute favorites. I adore the fact that the designer picked a floral fabric for this console.

I can’t tell if the cabinet in the back of this chic beige and blue living room is actually decorated with nail heads, but it could definitely be done. Photo by Laura Moss.
*
This room designed by Duneier Design features a desk that looks to be upholstered in blue leather. How cute is the dog sculpture peeing on the desk? =)

I have a huge mirror above my sofa in my living room which has been nagging at me for a makeover (you know how mirrors are when they’re unhappy). I’m toying with the idea of adding some nailhead trim to it. I’ve never seen it done before, if you have, please send me a link! I’ll try and do a post on my piano stool makeover tomorrow ;)
Oh, and happy 4th!!

I LOVE nailhead trim! I have 2 chairs with nailhead trim and they make me happy :) So I can totally understand that your obsession has grown to medium status! Ha ha. All the examples you have shown are perfection.

OMG, I’m SO loving the pic with the console table from from House to Home! BTW – there’s something very wrong with your feed! (it’s MIA)

Love the pictures that you found – some great inspiration there! That console table is gorgeous and I love the little dog peeing statue. I can think of lots of places to put him…

I really love the console table and the lamps. I bought the prints (in my living room) from Konstbolaget.se wich auction out prints and graphic art.
