Wonderful Window Seats



Christian's old farmhouse has two wonderful window seats built into just the right places. They are part of solid vintage construction built on original old floor boards. Here you can sit, read, put on shoes, or just look out the window awhile.


The dressing room window seat has a new cushion I covered with a yard of thick velvet tapestry-like fabric. I added cording to the top edges without making a seam, which gives it better form. Both window seats lift up for extra storage. Nice. The closet space here is also deluxe, and...

 
I finally have found a lovely spot for the velvet pillow cases I made with Bakelite buttons.
