Spinning a Yarn

Telephone Table

November 9, 2007 · 4 Comments

Yesterday I picked up this oak telephone table for $20. A bargain.

The red fabric wasn’t in too poor condition, but I though I could improve on it. Some fabric from my stash and voila!

PB090288

I really like the honey look of it all.

Thanks for your well wishes about finishing uni. It feels so good, but at the same time I feel a little at a loose end- studying is allĀ I really know how to do. A chance to reinvent myself. It was nice to enjoy a cup of tea in the sun with a friend this afternoon without the nagging guilt that I should be doing something else.

And I savoured the first sun-ripened strawberry, warm from the garden, this afternoon. It is going to be a good summer.

    Looks gorgeous! Yay, go telephone tables! Mine is too rickety to sit on. I intend to fix it tho, seen as its right by the door. Its the perfect place to sit while putting shoes on.
