Well I wasn't around very much just before Christmas. Business was crazy, Family in town, dating a new woman, and I was busy building these for my nieces.

They are really into anything Princess as they are 1 & 3 years old. I wanted to get them something unique so I did some research and spent many happy hours smoking cigars and working on these in the garage, just not during the painting and decoration phase. Annelise made the cushions out of this hot pink faux fur. As for the footstools, Caroline's toes are referred to as Piggies and Charlotte says her feet smell like Pink Cherries. Each throne has a secret storage compartment under the seat, opened by pressing one of the jewels. I used 5/8" MDF and hobby shop decor. I can post some pictures taken during the construction process if anyone wants to see them, probably in my gallery.

I was very happy with the result. The girls went bonkers over them and can't get enough of them, Caroline even fell asleep in hers last week. Can't wait to make more pieces to go with these. The whole experience was wonderful. Now I can get back to my other habits and get moving on my upcomming pass. Pass?

Handmade gifts are the best, and those are really cute. I'll bet they really made two little girls smile. Very nice results....!!
