So far this week I have mostly been catching up on sleep after a very eventful and busy week previous. All shall be revealed in September ;)
I'm spending my evening on the sofa, a tub of icecream has mysteriously melted into my mouth, and the sun has melted into the horizon. With an hour before I turn into a pumpkin, I'm putting it to good use and sharing some couch time.
Often I sit on the couch and think, and then think of things I can change around the house. I do this to avoid actually doing work. My living into dining room is open plan and I'm very much into a good flow of energy and movement through my spaces. But there was a blockage. I hadn't noticed it in the 9 years I've been in the house, but there it was, the arm rest of the sofa.

So I got off the sofa and turned it on its side.
And sat the cushions back on the floor. Very uncomfortable after 2 hours watching a film, even though I really enjoy sitting on the floor.
I decided to make a chaise longue. With drills, screwdrivers and brute force I removed one end.
Took the remaining fabric and pinned it in place.
Hand stitched and staple gunned in place.
The finished sofa.
Much better view when lying down chilling out.
I also took the feet off the sofa, lowering it by a few inches, giving a more relaxed height and seating position.
Putting my feet up now!
Goodnight and keep creating
