Bike seat cushion

I finally got a bike !  so all i needed now was a kid carrier ...well a friend of mine had an old one and was happy to get rid of it for very little...so here i was with this rather "live" carrier...so i decided to give it some kind of second life by making a funky little seat cushion for it....

here are a few pics..... now i think i need to paint the seat itself red, orange or kaki..which? also which paint shall i used so that it does not peel off?

Looking at the seat from the top...

Little ties to tie the cushion on the seat....

here we go , now we just need to to hit the road !
