Things that make me go ooh!

Some people are born bloggers. Me, I debate what to put up here, and end up not posting! I've decided to just go ahead and post things that are only indirectly related to my ododo work, like things that make me go ooh: other artists, items that make my little design heart flutter, and that kind of thing.

So, to start that off, here's a picture of a chair generously donated to me for free by a friend of mine! It's mid-century, and still in very decent condition. good things can come from selflessly admiring someone else's furniture, when they decide to get rid of it because it was never quite their taste to begin with! That was my lucky situation, and I decided to make room for the chair in my house, one way or another.



Such good lines! If they still make furniture look this nice, for any kind of decent price, I sure haven't seen it. I just have to clean the upholstery (reupholstering it is more than I'm willing to risk trying, right now) and maybe give the wood a light coat of oil. Maybe when I do, I'll check underneath the seat and see if there's a name attached to this piece of elegance.
