Sunshine and happiness!!
The last few days I have not been able to wipe the smile off my face! The sun has finally returned and it had everyone in my little town buzzing with positive vibes. We have been gardening and spring cleaning. Garage sale hunting and late afternoon beach walking. Sunsets and fish and chips. A wonderful taste of things to come after a very wet and and very cold August.
One very exciting thing was that I ordered new seat cushions for my retro sofa and they are now here and I love them. Not exactly a cheap thrill considering I found this beauty on the curb but she deserved the special treatment and I am so glad that I chose to have them professionally sewn rather than doing it myself. Once I looked at the cost of materials, fabric/foam/zippers etc; and time it was actually really good value.
Happy days! I hope you are loving some sunshine wherever you may be in the world :)
Oooo those cushion fit her perfectly. I just spent $50 resoling my $4 vinnies cow boy boots. Totes worth it though xxx
