Things that made me go oooh on my interboogle travels. I’m coveting the gorgeous minimal sideboard in the last pic.
Furniture
My Eames Aluminum coffee table has arrived and I absolutely love it! It’s the perfect size for the space and because of it’s shape it softens that end of the lounge. Anyone noticed the small amount of yellow that has crept in!?? I’m looking at the sofas now and wishing they were re-upholstered in a charcoal grey fabric. I still dream about having a corner unit….sigh……
My apologies for the lack of posts in the last week or so, I have been extremely busy trying to finish the kitchen (lots of pics later!). We also decided to have a party on Easter Saturday so I was like a looney tune running around with a screwdriver in one hand and a tape measure in the other! My top tip is not to try and put a larder unit together while looking after your five year old nephew. Although he has found the world of the Playstation 3 and was playing “Burnout” which kept him in a heightened state of excitement until he wanted his Uncle Mark to change the car which was frequent and somewhat frustrating!
Anyhoo, most of the kitchen was finished by the time Saturday arrived and we were all prepared for the party. Half way through the night a rather drunk friend fell on the coffee table and destroyed it! The legs snapped off and now it will be going to IKEA heaven, we had discussed changing it because we have had it a few years now but lets just say I was not a happy Easter bunny!!! Every cloud has a siver lining as the saying goes because we won a rather gorgeous Eames Aluminum Group table on Evilbay last night and I love it. Now I am impatiently waiting for it to arrive…….
