Even time...

To recover the cushions in the dining room.


Nothing fancy, in fact cheated with some plywood and staple gun.

Lots of curves makes it challenging.

But I got it done. 

(Small mistake in middle cushion. Confused what was the back of the cushion- may redo another day!)

Reminding myself

As I am faced with cleaning messes like this...

like this...

and like this...

I am reminding myself that I could not be happier with this...
By the way, those messes were only the upstairs, I have two other floors to clean!

Update

I am sure it is no secret that I have lost steam. I could not be happier to see the painting stuff in the garbage.


Needless to say mom can say I told you so- I should not have done the dining room....
... but it is done!


Also done is O and M's "Welcome Home" wreath.

So much f--king cleaning to do! I feel sick.
