Happy Warm Winter January 24, 2012

I love the way this seating turned out. A friend made the storage boxes with hinged tops for the base, I bought the extra dense foam for the seat cushions, took home two HUGE rolls in my small SUV, and found different fabrics to cover the many back cushions. I added lights for the holiday season, but found I liked them so much, they are staying. The seating is large enough to sleep on.

The coffee table was another find at Netties Consignment Shop. It is very heavy off white, solid wood, with shabby chic dents, chips and painted areas rubbed off. I liked the pierced side area, seemed to go with the Moroccan vibe I was doing for the living roo. What I especially liked about this coffee table was it's huge size, three feet by four feet, and large enough to balance out the large seating area and have 6 -8 people around it to feast on food, at one of my friends gatherings. It came in handy over the holidays.

I procrastinated for months (oh really ) on making the cushion covers, but once I decided to do this, it took less than a few hours. I made them with a Paisley linen fabric from Calico Corners.

I am done. My vision is complete and I am happy with the results. Party anyone?
