before & after

ok, my bench area is 99.9% finished - just need to hang some art, and do something about the carpet.  i may just put one of those heavy duty plastic chair roller thingies over it.   ok, remember before:

now...AFTER! TA-DA!!

 I couldn't have done it without my helper, Bulimia Cat....

now - to cozify the cozy corner...here's the cushion to the papasan chair...love the aqua, which will go perfectly with a piece of art I just bought...

still have to paint the phake paneling, and clear up stuff that i moved to the other side of the room, but i should have some lipstick on this pig of a project by tonight.  Whoo Hoo!
