Craft Project for today - a couch

May 7, 2008

Watch Thread
    1. I was at Michaels today and i found this pot holder and it was only 8.99 so i couldn't resist making it into a couch. I just used some Styrofoam for the cushion for now and super cheap fabric from the bin at walmart then scrapbooking stuff for the strawberries. I think the pots it came with would make a great end table.

      a bit of scale reference and silliness since my doll isn't here yet.

    6. Thanks everybody. I'm in love with it if only my doll would be here to sit on it.
      Shoutai it went down to 8.99 from 14.99 so its a pretty good deal i thought.

    9. I picked one up as well for 7.49 (50% off sale!) and am currently upholstering it! By the measurements it should work for my mini fee when I get her. I also picked up a "wood cabinet" little 3 drawer dresser looking jobber that was 9.99 down from 19.99 today from Michaels as well.

    12. I have a very similar one and I made sort of like a pillow to go on the seat. as long as you don't see the holes, I definitely recommend it, especially for MSD dolls :D

      I think what we have is essentially the same thing, I can try to post some pictures later.

    14. something very sad, happened at our walmart... they no longer carry fabric :( now i get sucked in to going to fabricland... tho its not a bad thing i have a card there, and some times when looking for fabric for my doll's i go to thrift stores, and cut out off old tee's saves a fare bit of money

    15. Everyone must have beat me to it at our Michaels! hahaha

      I'll run in on Friday and look. I did find a trunk shaped jewelry box that makes a perfect clothes trunk for 3.49 down from 11.99...
