A few days ago, I found this really ugly ottoman at a thrift store. 

It was covered in pet hair and outdated fabric and my gag reflex kicked in every time I looked at it...but I really loved the legs and decided to re-cover it.  So yesterday I went fabric shopping and found this great cheetah print.

I fitted it and made a few seams in the corners and then...

decided I wasn't so sure about the cheetah print. 

So I started searching through my fabric stash and found this green and brown that I really like. 




...but I can't decide which one I like more...I'm hoping to finish this "quick" project today...which fabric do you think I should use?  Help!

    Kathy, You are amazing and so talented, I would have never of thought of doing that, you need your own HGTV show. I really like the green and brown, I like the earthy tone it gives your living room and it matches so well.

    Definitely the green/brown. Cheetah blends in to room too much.

    The ottoman would probably go upstairs in the living room...dark brown wood floors, white and neutral walls.

    Wow, I really like them both. But the cheetah really calls out to me for some reason and I'm not normally a cheetah print girl. I'll be curious to see what you decide on.

    I like the cheetah print too, but I would have to agree Vanasa, I think it blends in a little to much, I vote for the green and brown.

    I like the legs on that too, very pretty. I like the green and brown, it adds a good contrast to the room. :)

    The cheetah is my vote. Every room needs a little of that!
