Let's talk about something happy!
My husband says I have too many cushions, even after I have culled two thirds! I love the promise of comfort when you look at a plush cushion. I love what one cushion can do to a room; inject colour, tone and comfort. Cushions can make a dull room come to life! And if you are like me, you can use cushions to change the feel of the room at a whim.
How much more do I love cushions when a talented friend makes them for me! My generous sweet friend Lesley (of the Ninjabread cutters fame) made these. Isn't she clever?
It looks like there are 12 cushions but there are actually 6! Clever Lesley put a different fabric pattern on the other side so that I can mix n match til my heart's content! (she knows me soooo well).
In return, all I could make for her was my Lemon Curd which she loves (thank goodness).
You know, it is a real blessing to have material items but I love these cushions because they are a reminder of my friend, of our friendship. I cherish her friendship and will do long after these cushions have lost their plushy-goodness, when they are covered in food stains and childrens' vomit although I will do everything I can to stop that from happening!
Do you have something that you cherish because of who gave it to you?
