Impossibilities Challenge... Latest Room Project

Hel-loooooooooo (in my best Mrs. Doubtfire voice)! I hope you had a superb weekend. Saturday the hubby and I drove 1.5+ hours to visit an open air farmer's market. The weather was amazing... 66 degrees and blue skies. I tell ya, living in California definitely has its perks! (Just be sure to watch out for the occasion earthquake.) After walking around and tasting some delectable goodies, we paid a visit to Ikea, which just so happened to be nearby. I don't get to go very often because of the long drive, so I forgot how much I looove that place! I think we spent a few hours in there. Then it was time head back home, after all I have a deadline to meet... January 31st is looming!


Once I arrived home I headed straight into my challenge room and got to work rearranging  it. I moved in this ottoman in lieu of the chair that was making the room cramped. (I bought this many moons ago from Horchow, before the economy took a nose drive.)

Its really too big for most rooms in the house, but I just can't bring myself to part with it because I adore the base. The fabric however is another story, besides someone I spilled paint on it. Oops! Then I got to thinking, "An ottoman in the corner is going to look odd." So...


I changed out the fabric and added a cushion back.


I still have more trim to add around the base. I can't wait to share the whole bench with you... the whole room in fact!


Too bad, you'll have to come back on the 31st to see it though. Till next time...
