Denim and blue jeans has been the stuff of legends since Levi Strauss made the first pair of work pants in 1873 and they appeared on Paris runways in the 1970's.  For Elizabeth Richardson, an unimaginable denim adventure began in 2009.  As a designer and marketing executive, Elizabeth always looked for the unexpected twist to incorporate great style into every project.  For years, she had saved her jeans and those of family members believing she would find new life for them.  Jeans evoke memories of people, places and events, much like music; rekindling those memories in a unique, sustainable way seemed like a good idea.  When a friend gave Elizabeth an older chair that had "solid bones" the denim dream began its journey.  Working with a master craftsman, the chair was upholstered using the old jeans and became the prototype for this truly "one-of-a kind" collection.

Furniture frames are solid wood, Northern Soft Maple, and domestically produced.  They are chosen for their fine hand finish and acceptance to stains. Furniture is hand dowelled; corner blocked and professionally finished by old world professional artisans.  Stain selections and nail head trim available, as well as, custom embellishments i.e., initials, design motifs, open pockets and embroidery. Pillows and throws are made of original jean material and accessorized with crystals, lace, cotton, cashmere or faux fur.  These are made to commemorate life's special moments, (friendships, graduations, weddings, retirements) the occasions are limitless.

Bed-Headers' owner, Joan Barmat, stated:  "Elizabeth Richardson's LegendBlues upholstered chairs and ottomans demonstrate creative thinking, quality design, masterful craftsmanship and highly practical day-to-day usefulness that is a combination of characteristics that we strive to offer in all the products at Bed-Headers Home."
