Need things to sit on ...

Greetings and felicitations good folk

Those in the know will recall our quest for new furniture and my travels to the far flung corners of these green and luscious lands to secure the fruits of the Bish's E Bay labours . The time had now come to put the resulting purchases to good use.

Plan A didn't work (Bish a tad vexed)
Plan B proved to be somewhat less than positive (Bish surprisingly sanguine)

.....and so to Plan C.
This required our good selves to learn the intricate and arcane dark mysteries of upholstery. Suffice to say we didn't do too much research or skills training but purchased some carpet adhesive and some staples and with a 'Gallic-esque' shrug we were off and running....stripping down seats to their metal frames, adapting cushioning foam and stretching rather fetching dark beige covers into new seats.

I have to say we are rather proud of our efforts and even the beautiful ones gave their seal of approval.

Here in glorious technicolour is our step by step guide for those who wish to learn...
