Wicked cool!

Ha, that first one is the same fabric as Anthropologie's Bella Hothouse quilt I think?

Cute idea but what a waste of a clawfoot tub - those things are pricey!

I love Breakfast at Tiffany's :)

So so great, this would be such a good use for tubs that have cracks or something that makes them no good for their original purpose

I think it looks uncomfortable too...

Uncomfortable and cold! I agree with polyhyper, what a waste of a clawfoot tub.

yikes...I prefer a bathtub shrine.

save the tubs!

My elementary school did something similar, but intead of cutting such a large entrance, they made a small cut, just big enough for a young child to be able to crawl in, and it was filled with blankets and pillows. It was everyones favourite place to read.

We had an old clawfoot tub in my third grade classroom - I think it was cracked, so they couldn't use it as a tub. The teacher painted it red and filled it with pillows and if you were the student of the week, you could sit in it, as long as you got your work done.

And ever since... I've wanted one in my living room.
Spoiled at 8. *sigh*

i think this would be a pretty sound investment for a photographer. photographed from one side, it's a bathtub. from the other, it's a couch. wish i had one!! i would totally use it in my photography studio/loft!

Nice for someone who romanticizes the "Breakfast at Tiffany's" life. Uncomfortable chairs have their place in a room -- they're great places to park guests whose visits one wants to make as brief as possible. I can't help thinking, though, that much of the charm of Holly Golightly's decor came from what it said about the character herself -- intermittently penniless, fly-by-night, undependable, boundlessly imaginative, and utterly bewitching.

no thanks

gasp! i love this :)

wow. really apartment therapy?

I adore my clawfoot tub, and the curve of the back at one end makes it super comfortable to lay in. I would imagine it would be the same with this (but maybe not as much if you were just sitting in it like a chair). Having said that, I'm sure it's not to everyone's taste, but I like it! :)

The first time I ever saw Breakfast at Tiffanys, this was the thing that stood out. I wanted one so bad. Now my taste is a little more formal, but if I could find the right spot...and a broken clawfoot tub, I am sure that I could make it work. Remember, later in the movie, Holly used it as a plant stand, so it could be multi purpose. It also occurs to me that with the right upolstery it could go outside

Yuck.

Get a pair of these and you could star in your own Cialis commercial.

No, thanks though.

I would have loved this when I was 14. Now I find it a little tacky looking, Although maybe if it was done differently?

Eeeeeyew...

I think it's cool.

It's interesting looking, but it seems like it would be uncomfortable. Although it's always cool to see things from Kansas getting recognition!

Umm. It looks like someone sawed a bathtub in half and threw pillows in. Oh wait, it is. Art? Or drunken hijinks?

Cold? Maybe they heat their home and they and their guests wear clothes. i like things that are different.

i think it's fun for outdoor furniture! be sure to cover the cushions in sunbrella fabric.

It's Holly Golightly's sofa from Breakfast at Tiffany's!

My mom bought a claw foot tub to go in our log home when I was in my teens. When I moved out and it was no longer necessary (read: she wanted a jacuzzi tub), she moved it outside, painted it, and made it a planter. It has been since moved from Macomb, OK, to Red Oak, Tx, and finally to Edmond, OK. We're talking about a 28 year time span, people! I think this is s beautiful and creative way to enjoy such a great piece of furniture! If she were to try to sell it, she wouldn't get near the value, sentimental or otherwise! Trust me, we've checked! This is a great alternative!
