A sexy bed

I found a great idea on the internet for a sexy Barbie bed, made out of a cereal box, pencils and tape!

I got my materials together. Padded the cereal box on top with... wait for this...a postpartum pad - it made a great mattress :D Covered it with a piece of satin and secured it with tape on all the sides.

I cut out a headboard and footboard from cardboard and decorated with them zebra print tape.

Then stuck on 4 zebra patterned pencils to each corner of the box, turning it into a four-poster bed.

Tania went straight to bed!

Warm and comfy on the sofa

Tania was still unhappy...

I had to help  the poor girl!

A couple of sponges and I was ready to go... The base was two big bath sponges stuck together and covered in a piece of leather that I 'borrowed' from my mother-in-laws basement. She is such a hoarder (and for once I didn't mind)! 

The back is two cushions made from 2 big dish sponges each. 

The sides are two small bath dish sponges with the rough part torn off to make them narrower.

All the elements are held together by glue. I don't sew..... :D

...much.... I mean, Tania needed some cushions for sure! I recycled my fave neon green plush hoodie... after my pregnancy it's ....uhm... a little tight :D

I cut out some rectangles, folded them in half and sewed the three sides together, filling the pillows with some scraps of the same material. Went all out and made a bedspread too :D The seams are not half bad either.

The sofa is a bit low... the seat was originally supposed to be raised more off the floor with and additional padding of sponge cushions... but I couldn't find any in the right size. I'm going to add some legs to the sofa if I find something suitable (maybe try some bottletops)

Elegant table and chair

Lid + bottle = elegant lid or chair? YES!

I used 2 black lids from a body butter and a Vitamin D bottle and Biosilk for hair bottle, both sprayed pink.
