Mad crazy funky sofa

[Dilly]

I created this sofa 10 years ago during a phase of hightened creativity using lots of kitsch found objects. I had some fake fur that I hadn't used (apart from making a pair of trousers out of them!!!), was given lots of toys by friends with children and picked up cheap beads and plastic flowers and this is what evolved (or erupted more like!). Aaah, I had youth on my side ... :-)

It's fab. Just what the world needs to brighten up a recession! It will never get woodworm but might be at risk of greenfly!

Sofas just don't come funkier than that!

And I long for my GARDEN!!!
Tis fantastic, great job....! a talking piece?

[Bluebell Girl]

What a fantastic job and your imagination is terrific - one of the coolest things I've seen in sometime :)

are the pieces stitched on or glued?

[Dilly]

Everthing was glued with a glue gun (including my hands at many stages throughout the process). It was all done in a very haphazard way but it was one of the most enjoyable projects I have created to date. I glued the fake fur on first, directly onto the sofa, then the flowers and beads. I keep promising myself to do an upholstery course at some stage. Imagine the fun I could have then!

[Bluebell Girl]

That would be fantastic, for you have certainly got plenty of inspiration!
Plus the colours are amazing - they really stand out and work well together.

It looks so much more cozy with the plush fabric. I love it. Well done.

[melissabell]

I love it!!! it must just put you in a good mood sitting on it!!!

I believe you've invented GOOD MOOD FURNITURE or HAPPY FURNITURE.

Brilliant!!!!

[Eibhlin ni Sheambrai]

Wow Dilly, you don't need an upholstery course, they'd only tell you the ''right'' way to do it and kill all your beautiful creativity. Couldn't believe it was the same sofa, kept going forward and back between two pics. Well done.Eibh.
