Remember that whole thing I said about being down 3 chairs? How I said I sold some and went on a chair diet? Yeah, well that's over.
Meet my new best friend. Yeah, she's the real deal. My first Eames. Feels neat. I like it. The Sea foam is the most perfect color in the world. She's going to get a new base as fast as I can make it happen. I'd love a walnut dowel base but I'm not sure how based in reality that particular want is. $75 on Craigslist. In Los Angeles that's a crazy bargain.
Let me stop right here and apologize for the photos. Weird things are happening with the light in my house and my camera. I can't seem to make it all gel. I also can't seem to find a good spot to photograph big items without the background looking messy and gross.
Hurray! Storage!
Yuck to the photos. Maybe I need a new camera? Lessons? Paparazzi?
Could you please do a house tour post someday! I just love the colors in your dining room, and I can only imagine how wonderful the rest of your home looks like.

I love that butter-yellow bar cart. The only thing about the dining room that doesn't sit (or dine) with me is the area rug, All of the concentric rectangles make the room appear much smaller. The floors are gorgeous--maybe a low-contrast medium- or large-sized animal/fake hide rug?

@JPK I totally agree. I'd love a cowhide rug but it's just not in my budget right now and that $30 number was.
ReplyDeleteSallie Mae restricts my design budget. It sucks.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the chair. I'm yet to find the real deal.
ReplyDeleteThe cart looks adorable in your dining room. Really nice space. So much color. I love it.
ReplyDeleteI love the bar cart I want one of these so bad!
ReplyDeleteYour photos are fine dont be so hard on yourself ... unless you're hinting at a new camera for Xmas that is :)
