At our house, summer is a time for hanging out on the porch...we live out there. Last year I bought some fabric to make new cushions for the glider and wicker, so this year I tackled it. It's mostly done now...just a few finishing touches to go. The hammock is a souvenir from Hawaii...very comfy!
Of course it's important to have a good assistant! I got a new piece of foam (denser and thicker) for the seat of the glider. The old piece lets you feel the straps under you...time to change that.
Then I used the old seat cushion as the back....that's what I'm cutting in the photo above. A great way to cut foam is to use your electric knife.
Now the seats are together, but I need a few cushions to throw around. The porch has a lot of crazy color...it's cheerful anyway!
Joe is working on building some bookshelves for the living room. This is something I've wanted for a long time...some floor to ceiling bookshelves to get all the books off the floors, stacked on tables.
