A Place to Rest My Cankles Tootsies

.
.
With four more weeks of pregnancy to go, I need all the help I can get to stay comfortable. I found this foot stool for $20 at Home Goods yesterday and he was just begging me for some new clothes and a pair of tootsies.
Pretty snazzy, don'tcha think?
I found this fabric remnant the other day at a fancy home dec fabric store and plan on making some pillows with it too. There was about 3 yards on the roll and I got if for $10. Bargain. At first I couldn't decide if the monkey was cute or scary clownish. But, I had seen this fabric a few weeks ago and figured if this was the second time my eye was drawn to it I should buy it.
I unscrewed the legs and put about a 1000 staples around the bottom and screwed the legs back on. Because I refused to measure before I cut, I almost didn't have enough on the right side. Oopsy daisy. Now if I just had some cute trim to put around the bottom...

  3. Love the fabric choice and what a great project. That looks pretty easy too.

    I'll have to keep that in mind when I run across things like this.

  5. I am so like you........no, I'm not pregnant.....I don't measure fabric when I am recovering a seat cover. I can't be bothered by that. :) Thanks for stopping by.

  6. So glad you're up and feeling better! I just found a great deal at homegoods myself and blogged about it today. I love the stuff there--but looks like we're kindred spirits in believing it's good, but needs a little work :)! I love the monkey by the way--and if he ever does get creepy, you can just put your feet over his face!

    Happy last 5 weeks! Try and be comfortable!

  7. That looks great! Nice job. The pantry and monograms look nice, too. You're on a roll, girl. Sorry I haven't stopped by lately ... I'm getting ready for a trip. Hope you're doing well. (did you enjoy those warm days last week? pretty awesome!)
