Floral footstool

A while a go I attened an upholstery workshop and make this delightful cupcake footstool which I love. I love mine so much that I thought I would make one for each of Mr PC's nans for their Christmas presents. I only managed to get pics of one of the footstools before Santa took them away for delivery but I thought I'd share the pics, particularly as I finally found a use for that vintage feel rose print!

Ready to put my feet up

A couple of weekends ago, I went to an upholstery workshop at Make Do & Mend and learned how to make a footstool. I had wanted to make one for aaaages so was mega excited to actually do it when the day came. I was amazed how straightforward it is and will definitely be making more for gifts!

Here's how it turned out:

These cupcakes are cute enough to eat!

Queen Anne legs, very shapely!

So this lovely footstool has now taken up residence in my living room and is ready for my to put my feet up which by reckoning will be sometime early January, such a busy schedule in the next few weeks!
