I have been waiting to show you the banquette I built for a wonderful family that I have been working with a lot over the last year , do you remember the mudroom entry I did earlier this year and the velvet headboard I made for their youngest daughter.I built the banquette for the kitchen eating area as their family recently grew there was a need for more seating this wall was the perfect spot for a bench .
You can relax and enjoy a banquette like this , they are really finding it a useful addition to the kitchen , they recently got their custom cushion back from the upholsterer , 3" foam makes for a nice soft seat , this cover was made of a fun green cotton called Loopy Lou from Tonic Living and can easily be removed and washed , I am going to make her a couple of 16" throw pillow covers from the left over fabric as soon as the house tour is behind me.
I am so thrilled with how it turned out and I am super pleased they they love it too .
