Grace Bonney’s custom Arroyo bench

October 8, 2018

Modern bench cushion - Design*SpongeCreative updates to vintage pieces can bring new life to a home. Grace Bonney of Design*Sponge used Arroyo fabric to create a beautiful custom cushion for her antique bench, which brings a fun modern accent to a more traditional space.

In her post about the project, Grace mentions that she and her wife Julia were excited to update their porch and create an inviting space for dinners together.

A little DIY and $100 in a few extra pieces and Julia and I updated our front porch and turned it into a space that makes us excited to eat outside and soak up the summer… I love when an afternoon project turns a space you weren’t using into one you now can’t wait to use.

I love that my fabric played a small part in creating this charming space.

Inspired to create something with my fabrics? Find Arroyo in a fabric store near you!
