Really?

Thursday after work (before our band practice) the hubby gave me permission to get more schtuff for my big debut... (more on that later...) so we ended up at a JoAnn's fabric store that is closing near our house and got some goods. I am saddy because I wish I would have gotten more stuff, but it was pretty picked over. I did however score all of this:

and this:

So since I got this at an auction for $15 about two weeks ago:

and it's not really my style - I thought I would use some of this:

To change it up and make it a better match for my living room and this is how I did it:

So I turned the ottoman upside down and unscrewed the cushion part from the leg part. Once I did that I laid the fabric down and put the cushion on top to measure the fabric that I would cut. Once I measured I cut and then got my new staple gun and went to town. In the midst of my renovation, Pierre was being nosy mcnosy and wanted to see what was going on. When I started the stapling, I just made sure that the fabric was nice and tight so that it would look good. Once I finished stapling, I attached it back to the ottoman and voila! Looks good huh?

(excuse the toe action)

As you can see the legs are not that bad, so I am thinking we will leave it the way it is. I just knew I needed to get rid of the Golden Girls palm tree look. Ahhhh... much better!

Stay Tuned!

Hasta
