Very funky pattern but nice with the black. You're very inspiring Melrose ❤

Wow. Simply amazing. I’m absolutely rubbish at diy. Arthritis in hands don’t help. Keep up the great work Mel.
Oh arthritis is no joke!!! Thank you! Will do!
@@MelroseLewis Tell me about it. Hope to make it to your part of the world in the next year or so Yahuah willing. Stay blessed x
You're amazing! Looks great and you know that the base is solid and made with TLC.👏🏼
Thank you so much! It is very solid, It has to stay in this location as it too heavy for me to move LOL!!
Girl you are blessed. Good going.
Yes, thank you
I am so inspired!!!!🎉
Hi Melrose. Your sofa looks great 👍🏾. I would put some felt pads under the legs of the sofa to stop it from scratching the paint off the floor.
Great idea!! Will do thanks for that.
Melrose, well done! It's lovely and looks like a great place to take a nap after a long day making furniture and working in the garden!!!! Also, I was wondering if Barbados has any charity or thrift shops?
So true! I have nap on it a few times as in the living room is so much cooler.Thanks for watching
You are so impressive I hope you give yourself the credit you deserve I am just taking back girl you're a badass
Looks good to me about to try with my bar stools fingers cross😊
Good luck, just take your time doing it and it will be lovely.
Can you say or put in the description where you bought the materials from Thanks
Hi. I bought the wood from Marshalls, which cost just under 200 dollars, the foam was the most expensive which cost around 600 dollars and the fabric was on sale for just over 150. The build cost just over 1000 dollars. Its the best thing I have built so far. Thanks for watching.
Oh sorry the foam was bought from the Foam shop in Bridgetown. fabric from Abeds, in Bridgetown.
Have you ever consider making pieces to sell .
No way LOL!!! Im just an DIYer out of necessity. Once I have made all that I need I'm done. I miss working in my garden.
Have you ever consider selling some pieces
No I'm just doing this to furnish my home. Once I have everything that I can make I'm done...I will help build stuff for my sister's place if she needs me to.
