Monday blues...

I always have problems with the colour blue, I want to use it somewhere but it never seems right somehow? I love blue and I've painted whole walls with it to then paint over it as soon as it's dry! I've started to introduce it in small ways here and there but maybe it's just not a colour for me to have in the home...

Fabulicious...

I want them....I need them! I came across these absolute beauties on good old Evilbay but they are in America Land! Boo hoo..... They were designed by Arne Hovmand Olsen and manufactured by Mogens Kold of Denmark. Raina if you are reading this I thought you would covet them all as much as I do!

A "little" project...

Just a few things which we have bought or are about to buy for a little project we have on the go right now which has to be finished by December 2nd. So far we have three Arne jacobsen Series 7 chairs, four Componibili units, some dark grey material, a lighter grey Atia bedlinen from Habitat, Sanderson's Dandelion fabric and a Doksta table from the big blue and yellow swedish box which we will be visiting this coming weekend. Now what could I be up to I hear you all ask??! More pics coming soon...

For the love of Apple...

I'm in love with my new Apple Magic Mouse! It really is magic because it has no scolley ball like the other one I had which used to get clogged with dirt and not work properly....so annoying! It's all touch sensitive and so far has worked like a dream, I just want to keep scrolling through pages and look on in wonder and it looks so beautiful! *sigh*...

Friday feast...

A dollop of gorgeousness for Friday! It's nearly the weekend! Yay! The top rocking chair was designed by George Jenson and I'm loving the green! Next is the Robin Day daybed....I need one!!! I'm still on the hunt for the perfect sideboard, this beauty was designed by Nils Jonsson. Last and by no means least is a Robin Day form Group sofa for Hille. have a great weekend everyone!

Music to David's ears...

Well after the chatter about who has the bigger addiction in this household David has gone and treated himself to yet more gadgets! This time it is the rather beautiful looking Sonos Touch Screen Controller and the Sonos ZP90 Zonplayer which for those who haven't come across them before are for playing music around the home wirelessly. Apparently it plugs into the amp in the lounge and away you go, it's probably not that simple but David sorts that kind of thing out and I just sit back and enjoy the benefits! We will be able to add more wireless speaker thingy wotsits in other rooms in the apartment and have the same or different music playing in each room which will be great for parties. It will be with us tomorrow so David is beside himself with excitement and he even paid slightly more so that he could get it delivered sooner! So do we need one?....no! Am I pleased that he has bought one? ....yes! Am I pleased that he is addicted to gadgets?....Sometimes....maybe...oh OK then yes I am!

Hi my name is Griffo and I'm a chair addict...

...Ooh that feels better! Yep I have another little beauty on it's way to me (teaser pic above)! Where will it all end? Well an apartment full of chairs with plenty of places to sit.....that's assuming that I actually let anyone use them of course. Why some people assume that they can plonk their arse on one of my chairs is beyond me!!! David was complaining when I said that I wanted another one but I reminded him of his total and utter addiction to gadgets and the fact that as soon as we got to our hotel in NYC he wanted to go and track down somewhere (namely Virgin in Times Square which had closed down but he didn't know , oh the look on his face, or Bestbuy) to pre-order a Zune. Of course he already has an i-Pod Touch and didn't need one but it doesn't stop him obsessing! Oh did I mention that we were outside the Bestbuy store at 9am queueing to pick up the said Zune and he made his way through that store like a lunatic! Hmmmmm......who has the bigger addiction problem?...
