I just can't resist posting pictures of my new chairs, seen here in situ in the parlour:
These were something of an impulse-buy -- yes -- but I could not bring myself to say no. As you can see, they are ready for the festivity of tonight's annual Fondue Feast.So are the wee-tiny Narcissus noses in the blue-and-white china pot on the end table:
Because I know some of you will inevitably inquire about the bag and brooch in the top-most image, allow me to preemptively indulge you.
The bag was custom-made for me by bayan hippo and the brooch is a Petula Precious by Miss Zaza. I love them together -- it's like each was made for the other.Finally, some knitting content:
It's my Saroyan scarf -- a rare knit for myself. I'm about halfway done.Apologies for the (possible) overuse of the Morrissey-isms; I must have the ol' Mozzer on the brain these days.

I am currently coveting those chairs. HARD> They are beautiful, and like you, I would have been hard-pressed to say "No", too.
Where, oh where, did you ever find them?
tamara -- Thank you! They're from HomeSense, of all places.
I somehow ended up on a mailing list for a catalog called "Home Decorator's Collection," and I spent a whole lot of time this morning looking at chairs very much like that! Are they comfy?
Rachael -- They are. I had been looking for chairs for a long time now and the combination of style and comfort has been an elusive one. These chairs do both exceedingly well.
Fondue and News Years go together so well- We always make sure fondue is part of the festivities on this day :)
