I think I made my top panel too long on this sketch, but I had to in order to fit my couch and chair on there! (That actually happened to us IRL - shortly after my husband and I got married we seriously misjudged or mismeasured the size of our first furniture purchase of a couch and two chairs - when they got delivered we sat down on our new couch and found we could literally prop our feet up on the coal fire "across" the room in our first tiny home here in Belfast!)
I popped up the cushions on these chairs, added brads to the pillows, and lightly sponged around the edges of just about everything with Ranger Distress Antique Linen.
I masked around the edges of the border with post-it-notes and sponged inside. The two top panels are framed in brown, though it photographed more like black.

Oh my word. This is spectacular! Love the sofa and chair! Beautiful use of the twine, too. I just got some a few days ago and have yet to use it! You've inspired me!
