The Ottomans in Their Home.....

OK KAMPERS!!!!!!!
It is now time to show off the footstools I redid for Miriam and Ross in their living room that has been decorated by moi!!!!!!!!!
This is what they looked like before I redid them.
Wellllll...... not really.....the footstool on the left we ended up replacing with the one on the right below.....
Anyway.....
They supply a place to rest one's feet or extra sitting if there's a crowd visiting.
I used the same white fabric as the chair slipcovers for the tape I made to edge the bottom of the footstools.
This visually united the two pieces, even though the bodies were in different fabrics.
I made toss pillows out of the same blue patterned fabric that covers the ottomans as well as the pair of painted chairs in the back of the room.
I also made bigger ones for the sectional.
This way the pattern is spread over the entire space.
Unfortunately, 
with a new baby in the house, 
everything is topsy turvy.
My great nephew came a few weeks early, and we hadn't gotten all the furniture for his room yet.
No worries,
we have 10 new fingers and 10 new toes in perfect shape, 
so I try to tell myself that's all that matters.......
He is very cute,
Perla the wonder dog seems fine with him,
and I still haven't changed a diaper........

On that note,

Holy crapenzoli! I can't believe how much I've missed because of this Feedburner fiasco! I just went back and read about a month's worth of your posts that I missed. Love it all! The footstools are adorable and congrats to Miriam and Ross on the little bugger. He is scrumptious! Best, Beth C.

Living room is just perfect, so pretty, but not too frou-frou for the two men that live there.
You turned a house into a 'home' for them, bet that makes you happy!

Wow. I really like how the ottomans turned out! Very clever to rework the heights to match. Their place looks so homey. Nancy
