stuff i want

I guess i shouldnt have classified this as a knitting blog, cause i hardly ever have knitting stuff to update about, oh well! I’ve been rather bored lately, seeing as i’ve been unemployed for 6 months, so i’ve been browsing a lot of shops online. Window shopping without leaving the house, score! So i’ve picked out a few things i’d  love to have in my currently non-existant apartment.

First, this fantastic office chair from The Container Store

you get to sit on Bungee cords! i actually tried it out when i was at The Container Store down in Massachusetts, its fantastic and incredibly comfortable. I bet it would look great with the Ikea desk i posted about last month. The bungee chair in all colors is apparently on back order right now, which is okay, maybe by the time i have a job, and apartment, and the money to pay for it they’ll be back in stock, haha!

Next item i want, this slightly boxy but still fantastic Coffee Table from Ikea!

The reason why i love it is actually cause i saw something VERY similar, possible the same one, on the show Carter Can! It has a bunch of storage cause there is a drawer that you cant see in the picture, and its glass top. On the show they got some nicely patterned place mats and put those under the glass top and it looked lovely. I’d like to to that, or possibly use some pretty fabric, or maybe even place a bunch of photos under the glass top. Either way, its extremely versatile and you can make it match the decor in your room. So even though its boxy and a wee bit fug i still want it for my non-existent apartment.

And finally, the last object i want is the lovely Round – Back Chair, also from Ikea.

I love round back chairs, i actually have a chair currently thats similar. Its white though, with a slightly hideous pattern, and the back is a-symmetrical and slightly sea shell like. I think round back chairs are a lot more comfortable then square ones, but thats just my opinion. Most likely i’d get rid of the throw pillow though, i’m one of the few people in the world who are anti-throw pillow, haha. I think they are annoying and uncomfortable.

So i suppose thats the end of my furniture i want list, there is more, i just dont want to post it all.

Anyway, i’m going to the Common Ground Fair on sunday with Genna where i plan on picking up some fantastic yarn, and possibly roving that i’m sure i’ll share when I get back!
