Cheap & tasty


So the weekend of doom is over. That being the weekend where I lost my best friend to the dismal streets of London.

Anyway. Not much happened, if by 'not much' you mean an orgy of carpet buying and frame-picking-out and bedding browsing and table shopping and hardware store happiness. The final countdown to the move has begun, and my frantic spending has reached fever pitch. To calm myself down, and make good on an earlier promise I made myself, I sewed 2 scatter cushions for the lounge using some fabric I picked up for cheap-cheap with Roxanne a few weeks ago in town. Heres the first one: pretty cool, huh? It almost looks store bought, only in a non soul-sucking kind of way. The second one looks pretty much the same, minus a few alignment issues. The only thing I realised about these cushions is that because I have made them with my own two hands, I can never use them. Ever. Lest they be stained or broken. In fact, I may just seal them in plastic and hide them in the back of my cupboard. Away from Paul. And the cats. And myself.
