Floor cushions

I'm on the lookout for some fun, affordable floor cushions. They're sure to add a touch of intimacy to any gathering -give me a few of my favorite people, steaming cups of "adrak-chai" (ginger-tea) and let the conversation flow......

Here's what a traditional "baithak" would look like:

Wow! that's versatile- I'd love me an outdoor space like that! Oh well ...a girl can dream.... :)


What I have in mind is a lot less formal, just a few floor cushions that can be stacked up and moved around to wherever we set up our "adda". Here are a few options off of etsy and the net...

No, not the pup, just the floor cushions. :)


Or maybe these will go down on my ever-evolving (and never completed) list of DIY projects. Get project ideas here.




PS: Happy Canada day to our Canadian friends!
