{My first Mad Hatter Wing Chair with a taupe velvet in front.. remember flash makes furniture look bad but people look better ;) }
I had recently seen pictures sent from the factory of the chairs and knew that they looked exactly as planned but didn't know until I sat in them that they'd be exactly what I wanted. They are sooooooo comfortable... And they're big and they surround you and make you feel seriously cozy. (Can you see how tall the back is?? And I'm a tall person.) You can sit in normally and really easily snuggle up with a kid or pet, or you can turn sideways & pull up your feet and it's perfect.
Here's the side view which shows off the insanely gorgeous Michael Smith / Jasper Fabric called Grace (in Willow). (Available through John Rosselli in DC)
I could take a nap in this chair:
Our curtains & pillows will come in on Monday and I cannot wait to see the Peter Dunham fabrics!! I'm also mixing in a few of my own along with some others so it should be pretty collected-feeling.
We hung art work today and I've been looking at the photos, wondering if what I selected is too disjointed? I approached the room as I would have a room in my own home, so instead of choosing pieces that work perfectly together, I went from my gut with pieces that I loved. Looking over the photos tonight, I can't tell if it looks like a totally crazy person did it or if it has that only-slightly-crazy Alice-in-Wonderland-feel that I love... I am toying with the idea of swapping out some of the more random pieces for ones that fit a little better (it is a showhouse after all)... or keeping it real and a bit off the way I typically do in my more personal spaces.
Any thoughts???
