More delicious chairs…
… BUT they are not for our apartment!!! They are for a rental apartment of ours which should be finished and ready for us by the end if this month. We bought off plan with friends of ours nearly two years ago and there have been many delays along the way including the developer falling out with the contractor a few months ago which resulted in the contractors walking off the job and unfinished windows being boarded up!
Anyway all is good now and the exciting part of furnishing it is nearly upon me. We bought it to make a quick profit and sell on at the time but since then the housing market has obviously gone tits up so we are going to keep hold of it and rent it out for a while…..fingers and toes crossed!
When you come to make lists of things to buy it’s amazing how quickly that list grows, everything from egg cups to bedlinen to a kettle and chairs! So I have been scouting around on the Interboogle and I came across three Arne Jacobsen Series & chairs on the Retrosixty website which I have just bought for a very good price indeed! I am now on the hunt for a dining table to team up with them and I may go for the Doksta table from IKEA, I would love a Saarinen or Arkana tulip table but we have a strict budget to stick to and I would only worry about it getting wrecked. We already have a sofa because we are using one of our old ones which is still in very good condition (because it was my sofa and I looked after it unlike Davids which is filthy and wearing very thin in places!) and just needs to be cleaned and spruced up a bit. Although I will be having a big shopping trip to the Swedish blue and yellow superstore I am trying to avoid it ending up looking like an IKEA-fest in the apartment.
