The Dude Scores AGAIN!

As I  mentioned  here, my nephew just moved into his own place. Thinking the table that I am giving him may not be enough to get him started, I thought I would whip him up a few pillows for his couch and chair.  I used a  drop cloth and some stencils to create some cool pillows for his pad. 


 
 I took this picture envisioning how his space will look with the pillows and the table that I made for him.
 I better hurry and send this stuff to him or I may just decide to keep it!
Come back next week when I will post a tutorial on how to make these drop cloth pillows.

Those are awesome! I'm digging all your numbered projects ...

You probably should have "pre-stained" with some beer and ketchup though!
