I'm tire reading about all you do.<br /><br />The cushion fits, you can make a big pillow case for it, or just wrap it with a piece of fabric you love. Then you can take it off and wash it.Karen at Nittany Inspirationshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08789043947926863264noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4476624473421483512.post-27282825888202456492008-08-17T14:49:00.000-06:002008-08-17T14:49:00.000-06:00Tootsie, You are amazing.

If not, I like the idea of making your own. If you got the cushion for a steal, I have no doubts that you could recover it. I am sure your new wicker loveseat is as happy as can be. All dressed up so fancy, I'm sure it's a relief. I love the bench table with her, too!<BR/> Hugs, TerrieTerrie's Lil' Piece of Serenityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02498637369385340227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4476624473421483512.post-57381087591095215742008-08-17T10:16:00.000-06:002008-08-17T10:16:00.000-06:00Hiya Toots~I have a little something for you, plea...Hiya Toots~<BR/><BR/>I have a little something for you, please come by and pick it up. :)Jessicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13516943255464904093noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4476624473421483512.post-36698402511550313282008-08-17T08:18:00.000-06:002008-08-17T08:18:00.000-06:00GM Toots, I have been painting 2 old park benches ...GM Toots, I have been painting 2 old park benches my Dawna gave me..

I've been looking for one for our new glider and everything is totally cleared out and the Christmas stuff is appearing! I thought of a question for you. Do you ever use soaker hoses to water? I think that the huge amount of watering is what has been keeping me so exhausted. Next year I'm going to have another very large bed and I don't think I'll have enough hours in the day to run around with the hose!

It doesn't look 'pink' in the photos (almost looks more of an earthy russet with pink undertones) and the pattern is romantic, so to me it goes well with the wicker.(Just thought I'd put my two cents in since I hadn't remarked on the cushion...grin.)HAVE A BEAUTIFUL WEEKEND LADIES!mrsbenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13490065292054880863noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4476624473421483512.post-60610537361605371202008-08-15T09:24:00.000-06:002008-08-15T09:24:00.000-06:00I agree with Justine!
