The truck finally showed up around 6.30pm last night.
Lucky for them, I was out chaufferring Em around, because I wasn’t a happy camper, and there may have been Words. But it’s here!!

New furniture! Cream seats! I think I’m insane!
It didn’t look quite so big in the store, but of course it was in a larger space. It takes up much more space than the old furniture did, but it’s way nicer. Of course, a barbie chair would look huge in our tiny house.
The old lounge suite was bought when Emily was a baby, and it looked like it. It was stained, written on, rabbit chewed and well past it’s use by date.
I improvised on end tables.

Stash boxes!
Of course, now the television is too small 😉

  1. hehe…probably a good excuse to get a new tele then??
    i’ve been buying yarns faster than i can knit them 🙁 probably i need a stash box soon!!

  2. Yep the Tv is too small 😉 he he
    Nah seriously the couch is beautiful, but what I really want to see is what is inside that stash box:)

  3. Very nice, very tasteful!! MrsMacGyver thinks a TV can never be too big, I’m for small to medium sized myself!!!!!

  4. Come on DH! Don’t be a spoil sport – that TV could be much bigger? I am wondering though….have you converted the lounge yet to hold yarn “a la jussi”?

  5. Looks nice in your room! Bet it’s comfy. Have you always had the spinning wheel? I don’t remember you talking about spinning before…maybe I just forgot.

  6. Did you get the rug too? I love the new couch! Recently, we just got a new couch (in a beigey herringbone color) and now DH cannot eat on the couch. We also got a large flat screen HDTV. And we recently ordered a coffee table. One thing leads to another! The older stuff in the room just looks even more crappy after the new couch was settled. BTW, happy early birthday! I can’t wait to open presents either…DH guilts me into waiting though.

  7. Lounge is very nice, looks so cumfy. Our tely is about that size, but with digital coming in I am hoping it will last till the death knock then we shall get a new tely. Love the side table things, they look great.

  8. It all looks lovely. And thanks for the tip about end tables/stash boxes. We move into our new house in 2.5 weeks and I might just steal that idea of yours. We knitters have to stick together right?! ;o)

  9. I love the stash boxes/end tables…..must get some of those. I also love your new couches – very nice. I’m trying to convince my DH to make me a coffee table that has a retracting lid (they made it on Better Homes & Gardens) with storage inside. But he won’t …. probably because he thinks I’m going to use it as a huge yarn storage box…..don’t know where he got that idea…?

  10. My POM gift is in the mail (as of today). If you believe it, I for some weird reason, thought you lived in the States. They claim it will take 7 – 10 days….
    : )

  11. Verrry Nice,so neat tidy and clean….My house is attrocious,and I dearly want a new lounge but I think I will get a dishwasher instead! More time to knit……..
