The gift that keeps on giving...

So, remember when I turned this:
Into this:
Well as happy as I was to make this sign for my friend, I was a little sad to have to get rid of this:
I'm absolutely obsessed with the Eiffel Tower right now, and I hated to see this lovely piece of heavy duty fabric go to waste. I'm a firm believer in giving, and I know that if you give it will be given back to you...

So, imagine my absolute delight when I de-constructed it and the fabric was left COMPLETELY in tact!!!!!!!!!!!! Which meant, that this gift was gonna come back to me, in the form of a....


FABULOUS new pillow for my couch. Added some plain Black fabric to the back, stuffed it and voila, I am SO happy!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)

PS-don't forget to come back Wednesday for the Gettin' Crafty on hump day link party... :)
