Papa Bear Chair And Footstool
Take off your tie and put your feet up. The seat of this rocking chair is woven of silk neckties. As is the top of the footstool. Let's design a family heirloom together. I can use your neckties with their stories to share or pull from my collection. A cushion under the weave adds extra comfort. I can add lavender from my garden to soothe away stress.

Rush-seated chairs wear out. Nantucket Tie Chic reweaves those seats with neckties. I can make you a custom chair, footstool or child's rocker with your loved ones old ties! Or I can use mine, customizing colors, themes and personal enthusiasms. For instance, a sailor could have a sailboat tie woven in. My ties and chair/stool frames are all upcycled. if you have a specific idea of what you want--I can do it! I've recently sold a tuffet with the top covered in tie tips. If your chairs have separate seats, they can be shipped to me and redone. Cushions can be added under the weave, too.

For Rustic Footstool5.0Meg was absolutely fantastic! She made a rustic footstool from my husband's ties. He died last year, and Meg has made a truly beautiful piece of art and has brought me joy in the midst of sadness. I could tell from her emails that she is a remarkable woman, and the stool represents her talent and her heart. Thank you, Meg Glidden!!
