my chair!


this is the chair that i wrote about earlier this year. i bought it off the set of "HUGO" (out december 3rd in the uk). for 1930's paris i think it fits in quite well. however for 2011 krysia's new appartment, not so much. so after helping out the drapesman on "dark shadows" he agreed to reupholster it for me for free. all i had to do is find my fabric. my initial idea was blue velvet, but that prooved to be a little outside my budget, so i ended up in john lewis one evening after work. i picked a similar blue in a durable canvas-type material. check out what my sofa looks like now:


going to try and find an oversized footstool in the same style. have spare material so could use as a coffee table!

a pink bedroom??



check out these pictures above.... what do we think of a pink bedroom? the thing i like about this is the grass-cloth wallpaper. it gives a warm, luxurious feel to an otherwise cold flat wall. it gives depth and cosiness! i found a british supplier of grass-cloth and here are similar colours below. but would i tire of it quickly, thats the question??
