Cats
Our friends Alfie and Milo are hosting Shabby Chic Day and we thought we'd join in the fun. Although there are many fine examples around the house of my boy's decorating flair e.g. nose prints on windows, clawed screens, chewed blinds and paw prints on the glass coffee table, Ben has progressed far beyond the others honing his skills and I think you will agree that nothing tops this.....
This is our living room sofa and Ben has had a field day scratching which makes me very cross! You will notice the elegant tape that has been applied in an attempt to curb his decorating efforts. The tape does help, the only problem is I have to take it off every time people come over and then reapply after they have gone. It's a bit of a pain in the neck.
I know all of you wish your sofas looked this good. Thanks Ben!
