Are you sitting comfortably..?
In addition to my collections of vintage treasures I also have a thing about chairs, sofas and cushions - can you have too many cushions?!! Our tiny cottage has always been home to a plethora of painted kitchen chairs and don't even ask how many wing-back chairs we have had in the past few years! It doesn't matter where we go, you can absolutely guarantee I will fall in love with a pretty chair of some description! These days, it is a real treat to be able to indulge my love for such items on a regular basis; I buy them for the website which means I am able to appreciate them for a short while before they go to a new home!
This diminutive 1930s sofa was a real find. It has a drop arm and its orginal plain upholstery has been expertly covered in an old Sanderson floral linen.
It's the perfect sofa for a study or studio - yes, you've guessed it, I would dearly like to keep it!
This beautiful old windsor chair is another favourite of mine.
Its rich patina fits in wonderfully with country-style decor...
...and the pretty tapestry roses seat ensures you enjoy a nice comfy seat!
I did buy something recently which I am definitely keeping for myself - one of Hen's gorgeous fabric covered notebooks!
I spied the books on one of her recent blog posts and decided I just had to have one! Hen makes them in all sorts of designs, this one being a patchwork of CK fabrics.
I believe she has added them to her etsy shop, so you'd better be quick if you want to buy one as I'm sure they will be very popular!
