Following a tutorial for a sofa, I decided to make an armchair so that there's somewhere comfortable for the residents of MJJM to sit quietly and read a book. I thought it would be perfect in the corner of the dining room. The first one I made took three hours and I was pretty pleased with it until I placed it in the house and realised that it was way out of scale!!!
So, not one to be let down by my own failings, I spent a further two hours a couple of nights later making another one. Here is the result.
It's not perfect, but it's not bad for a second attempt and when it's put in place, it looks just right for a cosy, curled up read by the fire!
I've pinched some other bits from my old house to make the room look more lived in too.
And whilst I was placing a yummy looking biscuit on the plate, I remembered I had a recipe for something that looked just the same, so I got baking yesterday too...
Very "more-ish" biscuits, sandwiched together with butter icing. Can't think why there's only two left already!
I've now started to mentally design the living room. Far more modern than the traditional dining room, it's going to be very pale with a calm atmosphere. I haven't yet decided on bare wood floorboards or a very "earthy" carpet, but I've ordered some bits and have started designing the sofa (in my head, at least!)

Ha sido un buen trabajo, aunque hayas tenido que repertir, el sofa te ha quedado fantastico.
Me encantan todos los detallitos que tienes para tu sala.
besitos ascension
Well done with the chair. I think it will look great and you can always place a throw over the back to make it even more cosy if by any chance you're not too happy with it when it's in position. I think it looks just fine though. The biscuits look so tasty!
Gracias Ascension, mi español es muy pobre, pero con la ayuda de babelfish, lo he traducido. Estoy muy contento que usted tiene gusto de mi silla. Recuerdos
Thank you Judith and what a great idea with the throw! I can "chuck" it over the arms which look a little uncomfortable!
!!! I know I commented here!
Anyway, your chair looks really authentic - I love the shape of the arms.
You should see how my partner Wesley Virgin's report starts in this SHOCKING and controversial video.
Wesley was in the military-and shortly after leaving-he unveiled hidden, "mind control" tactics that the CIA and others used to get anything they want.
These are the EXACT same tactics many celebrities (especially those who "come out of nowhere") and top business people used to become rich and famous.
You probably know how you only use 10% of your brain.
That's mostly because most of your BRAINPOWER is UNCONSCIOUS.
Perhaps this conversation has even taken place IN YOUR very own mind... as it did in my good friend Wesley Virgin's mind 7 years back, while driving a non-registered, beat-up trash bucket of a car with a suspended license and $3.20 in his pocket.
"I'm very fed up with going through life paycheck to paycheck! When will I get my big break?"
You've been a part of those those types of conversations, isn't it so?
Your success story is going to start. You just need to take a leap of faith in YOURSELF.
