I'm back at it again, re-arranging and decorating, which is one of my favorite things after all. I decided after we inherited my grandparents dining room table, that I no longer wanted another table in our breakfast nook. It seemed a little redundant to me for our current lifestyle, that is considering that we never used either table for anything other than storage space for our junk.
I moved my vintage sectional into the spot, which creates a cozy sitting space. My next big project is to make a slipcover for it that will help it match the kitchen a little better, probably in a red and white pattern. However the space felt a little empty. What was missing? A rug. After hours of scouring the internet and finding that what I wanted was going to cost me an arm and a leg I decided to go ahead and make my own using a heavy canvas fabric and fringe I found online.
I bought a drop cloth at the hardware store to back it with and to give it a little more weight.
The final results (picture red and white patterned couches).
I think Ollie approves.
