ish and chi: Colourful seating

Monday, August 31, 2009

A few images to brighten up the start of our week. You may have already come across these but I love seeing them together in the one post.

Anna's chair now available as a print by Annechovie!

Anthropologie chair owned by Nicole. It hurts that I can't get my hands on Anthropologie furniture here in Australia so I'll have to swoon from afar instead.

Hello Missoni, I still love you. Image via here. I have another saved in my WISTS list too. If only I had a spare.. oh, $1200 or so?

Settee from Country Living. I found vintage fabric in a similar pattern at the markets on the weekend. Why why WHY didn't I bring it home with me?

Another ~~Anthropologie~~ oops, Urban Outfitters love. This one is owned by Jen.

Ohh my heart is racing.

PS: Thank you for your comments and suggestions regarding what to do with the chandelier. I'm still bummed that it is too big for the bathroom. I stupidly suggested we raise our ceiling and my husband had to remind me that we have a tin roof on top of that part of the house so ummm.. impossible. Meanwhile I've immortalised the chandelier in a print inspired by it. Now this one I can definitely hang!

I found a stunning piece of fabric to upholster a chair - 4 dollars at the thrift shop - now I just need the right chair!

I emailed Anthropology awhile ago asking about Aussie access and they said shipping to Australia is probably going to commence in early fall (US). But not sure about things such as furniture...would cost a bomb.

it's like you're reading my mind with these gorgeous chairs. Love all the fabrics!

That's good news Emma! They probably won't ship furniture though. I wish they would open a store here.

I wish that I had bought something seen and left FAR more often than I have regretted buying something.

Why then does it keep happening to me? Can it be that the small ache of regret is a small guilty pleasure?

This weekend I hope to visit a vide grenier in a village here in France where I am on holiday - I am in a state of anticipation, wondering what I will find.
