Date: 12/29/09 1:22 PM OK, I haven't successfully found a picture online to post, but OMG I just turned to the page with the whole chair cushion made of mice and I burst into horrified laughter. WHAT. THE. HECK. That is one of the creepiest things I have ever seen someone seriously suggest you make. |

Date: 12/29/09 11:38 PM Thanks, Becca, glad I was wrong. I'll have to check that issue out. I have a stuffed Ikea rat that's about 9'' long (minus tail). I wonder if they used those, or smaller actual mouse-sized ones.  |

Date: 12/29/09 11:39 PM It's based on this series of chairs at Moss. I saw one of them in person and it was actually really fun, but I think it was somewhere in the $20,000 range. It prompted a bunch of people to make their own versions of the chair. I may still want to make one myself. ------
