Project bench

Our other big project was the iron bench. It was starting to rust and needed a little something to make it comfortable so a person would actually want to sit on it. Enter Mom's amazing sewing skills!

Before. Boring!

All sanded and ready for paint
Rust-oleum is awesome

My forearm may or may not have been sore for 2 days after spray-painting. Embarrassing.

Getting all the nooks and crannies
That's why our feet were so sticky!
The cutest printed duck fabric ever

Mom made the piping for the edges
The finished cover. Or scarf.

All stuffed and ready for sittin'
The inaugural sit
So cute. All it needs now is some pillows!
We could have stayed out there all evening!
I learn so much from my mom. Hopefully I can bribe her to come down and help me with fun projects like this when we get in our house. Moving day is Saturday!! AHHH!!!!
