I love when I can join Cindy at Cottage Instincts for her

Make it for Monday gathering of talent...

I finally found a permant spot for that fabric that I have had...
                                                                 






I found this ottoman at the goodwill

for a few bucks and look at her

before dress...



thankfully this Diva
 
was there to rescue her from

this fashion disaster




perfect for books, trays and snuggly feet...





A manzanita branch that I had  placed

in a silver bucket and hung an ornament display

wonderful use what you have centerpiece for the holidays

Blessings to you this Monday

The ottoman turned out so great Kate! The green just pops and the patterns on the pillows are all so complimentary and subtle, not overwhelming in that space. Perfect harmony!!

That ottoman is the perfect size....and the 'before' fabric was prolly more appropriate for a 70's kitchen window, eh? You made it loverly :)

We got a bit of warmth today, so I went out an hacked down some branches and sprayed them white to use as an ornament or perhaps vintage card display for the holidays. Won't be as pretty as yours, but it sure gives me inspiration!

Love when you can Mi4M Kate :)
