TAKE A SEAT ..........

What is your seat of choice ? .......

a chair .....

a day bed .....

 

with or without cushions .....

a sofa .....

maybe a windowsill will suffice .....

or, a pew with a view  .....

how about a swing !! .....

or rocking in the sea .....

in the cinema .....

or with your best friend ?

lounging in your tux .....

or contemplating on a wooden bench .....

Rest assured that I shall be putting my feet up at some point today !!

Have a restful Tuesday.

LET THEM EAT CAKE...........so we did......

I'm not a cakey person really.......give me savoury anytime.......but we went to my son and daughter-in-laws for dinner last night as it was hubbys birthday and , boy, did we have a cake. There was cream , there was chocolate and there was every fruit that God has put on this earth......... raspberries , blackberries , apricots , kiwi fruit , grapes , redcurrants , you name it , it was on there. It does sound rather O.T.T. but , because it was fruit , it was lovely , really refreshing.......so , a good time was had by all but , as you can see by the picture below , I did come over all unnecessary and had to have a foot massage........I obviously had a touch of the vapours as, it definitely wasn't the wine that we drank !!!!
As I've gone all Marie Antoinette , I thought a few pictures of furniture in the Louis XIV (or was it XVI) mode would be appropriate . Not my favourite period but, as you can see , it can be done beautifully.

This is a real modern twist on the Louis era.

.....................Finally , a wonderful splash of colour and fun. Hoped you like the look at the French Revolution period . I'm off for a lie down in a darkened room !!!

Come in, sit down and put your feet up..........

A settee or sofa is one of the most expensive items that you can buy for your home so you have to choose carefully and make sure that it is comfortable. as well as being aesthetically pleasing. Here are just a few that I like..........

This last one isn't quite a settee but it's so lovely that I thought I would include it.
