165.365

I began Operation Breakfast Nook with two 60" benches from Overstock.com, set in a L shape in the corner. I ordered some fabric remnants from Ebay, wrapped them around foam and secured them with safety pins for cushions. Then I sewed pillows for the backs of the seating area. I tried to balance the geometric patterns of the table and light fixture with organic fabric patterns. I put window film on the window so that the birds who eat at the bird feeders on the other side of the window have privacy and don't fly away when we sit down. It's been great eating breakfast and watching black-capped chickadees, tufted titmice, warblers and cardinals eat at the same time as us.
