my creative space.....

I picked up this foot stall at Vinnies a while back now. I knew it would be spruced up at some point but I was waiting for some inspiration (which was a long time arriving). Then I got myself a little bit excited the other night when inspired by Kootoyoo herself I remembered these coffee sacks that have also been sitting around looking pretty for way too long.
So today I put scissors to sack (that hurt a lot!) and covered the cushion and painted the rest in a lovely 'Treasure Isle' colour. I reckon it looks a bit funky.

For more creative things go to Kootoyoo and take a peek.....
