Modern Mom

I love this photo I found on my favourite Blog Shelter. There are so many aspects that appeal to me: the beautiful chair, the exposed brick wall which reminds me of our first NY apartment, a stylish mum, that lamp which is similar to the Orson and Blake one I am coveting at the moment.

New Look

I decided a needed a chair in my heading, so this is my favourite chair which I bought at a New York Flea Market in the upper west side. It was one of those things that you see and don't buy but then can't stop thinking about. The next couple of weeks it was raining so the markets were cancelled, I eventually went back bright and early and it was still there much to my delight. My husband started trying to bargain but I said 'I will take it' as soon as another lady started showing interest, he wasn't very impressed.

This is another chair love from the Sydney Morning Herald a couple of weeks ago. The chairs were found in an antique shop in Annandale (just down the road) but covered in my favourite Trellis fabric. I am not a lover of orange but I do love this combination.

A Pair of Featherstons

This week at Raffan Kelaher and Thomas in Leichhardt they have not one but a pair of Grant Featherston Contour Chairs available. Grant Featherston is an Iconic Australian Designer who designed this range of chairs on a tram in Melbourne. The Contour chair above is my favourite Featherston chair, although I did buy a Featherston Office Chair purely because nobody else bid and I couldn't see it sitting there unloved, so I bought it for $20 but I have still to recover it and do it up. Can't you just imagine these two all glamed up in a beautiful home. I posted some time ago about the one in the Paul and Joe store in Bondi Junction in gold velvet but I love the first picture in plain white. I hope they go to someone who will love them.

More Chairs

At my favourite Auction House this past weekend I spotted the below chair, being sold in a pair. I love them but probably not in my budget this month. If only, I would love to cover them in a beautiful fabric.

Favourite Chairs

Today I saw the post from Anna Spiro from Absolutely Beautiful Things and love her living room. Her chair is beautiful, the fabric Divine. I have been on the hunt for two chairs for my living room although probably a little smaller than Anna's. Here are some of my favourite chair shots, I am picking the fabric although I still haven't found the right chairs yet.

I love the fabric on this chair, big stripes with lots of colour. Unfortunately I can't remember where I got this photo from.

I love these chairs and the fabric, actually the whole setting. This photo is from Dominomag.

These dining chairs are Divine, I love the use of the two fabrics. Gorgeous.

I love the simplicity of this one, a gorgeous chair in pale pink. This photo is from LivingEtc.
