Last weeks projects

I found this while going through my supplies. Yes, these were projects from last Christmas. The kitchen towel apron. They seriously take a few minutes, but I guess I just started doing other projects before I finished them.

And then back to this wretched thing. Reupholstering isn't the most fun project I've done.
I started this a month ago and brought it back out this week to finally finish it. This takes awhile and it's a pretty lame job, but it's good enough for me.

And these, well these are almost done. All I have left to do is to paper the back. I have 3 shelves done on the left bookshelf. These were a few months long project. A friend helped, well actually 2 friends, helped us build these shelves and bench. I had this idea, good or not, I don't know, but nonetheless, an idea, that I would build these shelves. I was looking through some magazines and I saw this bay window with all these cute pillows and I really liked it. So I said to myself,
"That would be cool to have in our living room."
I tried to figure out a way to do it and this is the best I came up with, since we are just renting and probably shouldn't knock out a wall to make the bay window. Obviously, the pad and the pillows are not done for the bench and neither are the curtains. So there is more work to do, but the shelves are built and painted.
