Eames






Happy weekend all.

At long last I have started to put down the grey vinyl flooring in my loft/studio! It’s been a while coming but I have bitten the bullet, it was a bit scary making that first cut but thankfully most of the edges will be covered by skirting boards which I will fit afterwards. With 26 square metres to cover there is still a way to go but it’s a start.

I have also been doing an Ikea hack with the Aspvik unit I bought a while ago. I liked it but it was a bit boring and I wanted a more mid-centuryish look to it so I drilled the hole/handle in each door and then sprayed them. I’m rather pleased with it….

I’ve bought another Eames chair! I just couldn’t resist (and I really did try!) when I saw this sexy little number. I’ve never come across a black naughyde upholstered and black shell before for sale so my heart was all of a flutter. It came on a black H base but I also bought a dowel base which I think looks rather special.

I bought it from Pink Flamingos which is where I have bought the majority of my chairs.

Where is it going to go? No idea at the moment…I just had to have it…
