My good fiend Kelli was going to throw these wooden frame seats out. Instead I thought I would try and give them a new life.
They were a little beat up so I sanded them and gave them a lick of paint. Whilst they were drying I got to work on some cushions. I had a couple of foam squabs left over from another make over. I cut them to size and made some covers for them. I got two massive pillows from an op-shop that are the perfect size for the two seater, so made new covers for them too.

| my sewing room was filled to the brim with foam and fabric |
 |
| I decided to go for a cream and navy colour pallet. |

| making some pipping. |

| A pile of completed cushions waiting to go to there new home | . |
The bases of the seats had pulled away from the nails but had not ripped much so I was able to secure them with my trusty staple gun.
 |
| as good new |
 |
| the end result |
 |
| you might remember the little cushions from early this year? |
 |
| all together it looks like this |
as I was out there anyway I though that I should hang the frames I have been thinking about hanging for about 2 months I am glad that I did because they look great.
I was inspired by marie de salle apartment in high fidelity. since first watching that film I wanted to use old window as a divider. this is my light weight take on it.
