I mentioned earlier in the week about the Build Your Own Ottoman Class at Metamorphosis Studios that I attended a few weeks back. After a sick kiddo and myself being sick I was finally able today to go back and finish mine up!
The class was for building a basic ottoman but since we ran out of time Jenn agreed to allow me to design a more personalized ottoman. |
This is the fabric that I used. I had purchased it last year some time just because I liked it. This was the perfect project for it! |
I love the nail head trim all the way around and the added jute webbing. |
These little wooden legs I custom painted make me smile too! They turned out to be just perfect for the ottoman. |
I really enjoyed making this with Jennifer. She is a fabulous instructor. I wish I could say that I can now make an ottoman on my own but it is a TON of work and a killer on my hands so I will just leave the ottoman building to the pro! I did though gain some great tips that will make my own smaller projects a lot easier. Thanx Jennifer for such a fun experience! Also thanx to Cathie for working with me on my 'F'! I know I can be rather picky and she was super sweet to put up with me.

This is just FAB! I am in love with that fabric. I once added some nail head trim to a chair and swore I would never do it again. My fingers were bruised from months from the hammering. LOL Can't wait to see where you put it. xxoo

ReplyDeleteWhat a pretty little ottoman, Pamela! I love that fabric and the nailhead trim. I have made my own and agree it can be a lot of work to get to the finish. I think I like making over old ottomans better. : )
ReplyDeleteIt looks just great! Way to follow through! Sometimes those unfinished projects can evaporate on us! Glad to see it. All done and beautiful!
ReplyDeletefabulous! Our last name also starts with F and I just took two of my dining chair slipcovers to the embroiderer to have a very similar F monogram put on them =)
