You see, it all started with a problem: 2 dogs....1 doggy bed. Something just doesn't add up there. And what's worse (as you may remember from an earlier post) these particular dogs do not share well. And they will search out a comfy spot at the expense of my couches, beds and any shoe they can find on which to take out their aggression. But where a problem arises, a solution can often be found.
One recent victim of their quest for cozy, was the duvet I received in middle school and have held on to through every transition of my life. I woke up one morning to find my beloved duvet shedding feathers from several tears that been created from an unnamed destroyer (Vegas!!). No longer good for human comfort, the duvet still held a lot of its volume and mass and had to be re purposed somehow...well ta da!
The sturdy linen (also a recent victim of the savage beast) used to function as a cover for the couch we will soon retire to make room for our new as-of-yet-un-doggy-adulturated furniture. The polka dots are an old shower curtain I was gifted when my former roommates moved out of Savannah (thanks, Cindy!). And the zipper was part of the supply left to me when another former roommate pared down her craft cabinets. All-in-all, this evening project didn't cost me anymore than a few hours of labor.
And it has already received the seal of approval!
I have to check this more often.
