    Hey Danie, I love the build and the channel! I’m an upholsterer and just have a tip for the corners. If you tack off each edge with just one or two staples in the centre and then pull your corners diagonally and tack them off. This holds everything in place. From there, you can staple along each edge from the centres and make a couple neat pleats on each corner. I love that you are not afraid to try anything, it’s really inspiring to me to keep myself moving forward too ☺️

    That waterfall edge is *chef’s kiss*. A great concept overall. I love pieces that can be used in a lot of different ways. They always have longer lives and make refreshing our homes so much easier when all you have to do is a little rejig. I mean, just moving the wood piece around would give me that design high every day 😂. Really well executed, Danie 😊

    Ooh, I love the pencil line trick for helping to make sure the entire surface has been sanded. Having 60+ year old eyes 👀 it sometimes can be challenging to see that I have sanded the entire surface evenly. You never know when an old Seahag like me is going to learn from a wee little whipper snapper like Danie.😂❤️
    BTW - GREAT JOB! She is a beauty.👏 Also, that hat is on point.🌺

    Now I'm not a professional but after I reupholstered the ottoman in my bedroom, like you, I didn't like the corners. So when I made an upholstered footstool, I instead decided to sow the corners first to get a clean finish. I did this by putting the fabric over the foam & wood inside out, pinning the fabric at the corners so I had nice smooth seams & got the look I was after. Then I quickly hand sowed, turned it the right way around & put it over the top to check the finish was how I want it, before sowing using a machine & adding the fabric properly.

    • @weepingwillow1993
      @weepingwillow1993 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Another option is to do the corners last and do folded corners. You would staple the fabric on the same way you have but leave about 2 in undone on each side at the corners to manipulate the fabric later.

    I particularly like that you used the L brackets, because that makes the project manageable for non-expert woodworkers.

    • @donnabacon4681
      @donnabacon4681 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      It was brilliant! And I thought the same thing!! If necessary, she could cover the "L" brackets with very thin wood strips and use Restore Finish. Either way, this entire set up is beautiful!

Remeber to have faith in yourself and your vision. It all works out the way its meant to whether it's a learning project or turns out just as you invission. This table ottoman is stunning. I hope you are truely able to see that.

    16:54 - BUILD DISCUSSION! I made a cushion just like how you're doing, but for the bathtub (b/c we're not tub people). I used some "boat seating fabric" since it was waterproof and came in a variety of colors for reasonably cheap on Amazon. The cats get a ton of use sitting on it, heck - we sit on it whenever we're brushing teeth, putting socks on, you name it. It's also great for having extra storage space since under the cushions is the tub - store ALL the toilet paper, backup shampoos, or your Christmas presents for others inside. No one would look there. It's a bath tub. :P

    It is beautiful! Icringe a little when you have to cut off so much fabric, etc. If you do one side, then pull to the other side or end staple and cut it off with a possible big piece of fabric for other DIY items. It does look great! I'm surprised you did not make it with storage underneath the top. Even if you do not need it now it could be a positive opportunity later. Plus, by not making it long enough for two people to have their feet up while using the table.

I sit down with my coffee and watch you and Gator and I call it my Saturday morning cartoons lol. I love this build, it’s GORGEOUS. I wanted to make a suggestion though, consider some low profile wheels or casters for smooth rolling, like the barrel shaped kind that don’t swivel and only roll back and forth. Long term, it should cut down on the wear and tear of your beautiful rug too. They inset into the bottom edge and you can barely even them so it wouldn’t disrupt the aesthetic or take anything away from the beauty you’ve created.

    Love this idea! 😮❤
    Be sure you put a couple coats of water repellant on the fabric. It'd be a shame to have it stain because of a spill. 😢
    Put some tap-in glides on the bottom of the wood piece AND on the bottom of the ottoman legs so it will slide across the floor more easily.
    If you want to get fancy, add rope handles on the 2 short sides of the ottoman to make moving it easier. Get the color to match the fabric. Make it taught, right under the cording that separates the top from the bottom. It won't really be visible, but will make moving it SO much easier! 😊
    To get REALLY fancy, add handles on the open ends of the wood piece as well. Get the color to match the wood. Make it taught, right up against the underside of the table top, and set 1" or so back from the edge. It won't really be visible, but will make moving it SO much easier! 😊

    Looks fantastic, Danie, great job. A tip for upholstery, start in the middle on all 4 sides first, then work your way towards the corners. This helps to ensure even tension all the way around.❤

    OMG! I love the seam trick! I always think I have to use piping which is enough to deter me from doing any upholstery but this is a game changer! Thank you!

      I agree! I hate working with piping, but that “fold” Dani used here is an amazing hack!

    i'm so amazed every single time by how you delve into new things and challenge yourself and almost always have amazing results ! I love the ottoman you should give more props to yourself because it turned out beautiful, and guess what the way i see it is wow she has one more amazing skill and is able to make something so beautiful..! This whole episode blew my mind honestly, from start to finish; from the plan, to the functional purpose, and the execution and of course the aesthetics !

    It’s beautiful! Unlike you, I would have made it a storage ottoman - we always have blankets or extra cushions/pillows, and it would be nice to have them stored right there. I might think a little differently than most because I’ve lived in houses where space was short, and I learned nothing ever just “sits there”. Everything must have multiple uses if it’s going to take up space in my house.

    Today, I learned that what I have called the Catawba tree all my life is called a Catalba tree. I thought because Catawba worms aoften eat the leaves and that there is a Catawba Native American reservation near where I live in SC, that it was a Catawba tree. (Catawba worms are great for fishing so we had one in our back yard so my brother could fish when he wanted.) Learned something new.
