The chairs new clothes


A  poor chair saved from a skip is about to get a new dress! As always it takes longer more, time and effort than I could imagine. But as I stand back, arms folded, admiring (sometimes questioning) my efforts it is always worth it.

Unfortunately I haven't got any during-the-process pictures. Got a bit carried away as it was a bit late in the evening and I was kind of eager to finish them (yes there are more, I made 3 in total).
The fabric was stapled on at the back and removinf them was the most time consuming of it all. But stapling the new fabric (yes it is from IKEA, as most of my fabric stash, their green hippo fabric is one of my all time favourites)proved to be a lot more fun and much quicker.
Well, this is the finished result, tada!
Really happy with the result and will definetly look out for more chairs like this with a worn office look and watch them transform into beautiful swans.

Pizza




Princess M had friends over so we decided on pizza for dinner. And I guess you did know that pizza tastes even better if you make them into persons. But I would probably stop there and don't give them a name since you are going to gobble them up.
