These pillows have seen their better days.  They are outside cushions and although they have the sun resistant outdoor material, the sun has faded them out.  They are probably about 2-3 years old.

Back at the beginning of the summer I bought some material to make new pillow cases for these two pillows.  It’s the color of that chartreuse green strip that is running through the middle of these pillows.

My how time gets away from you!  Here it is at the end of the Summer and I finally decided to set down at the sewing machine and whip the new pillow cases out.

“TA DA!!!”  It might have taken me a whopping 30 minutes (I had to rip out some seams that I wasn’t paying attention to how I was sewing).

This picture doesn’t do the green color justice, but it matches the color of the umbrella I had to purchase at the beginning of the year because a storm broke my other one and my tempered glass top table. 

I don’t know why some of the easiest things we just put off.  You would think we would want to do those things because they bring us a sense of accomplishment.  Human beings are a strange lot at times.

  Hmm, since that was pretty easy, maybe I’ll add some fringe or beads to them…….oh get real Sherri, these just sit out in the sun.  I’ll put that money toward more stash.

Oh well, they will look great next year.
