How divine is the image above?! It was designed by resident interior designer to Coco Republic and showcased in Home Beautiful (I think)! Love the cabinetry, blue and white and of course the gorgeous armchairs.
The White Shed (http://www.thewhiteshed.com.au/) has something in black and white that reminds me of the above. It is quite affordable too.

I have always had an obsession with armchairs, I am not sure why. Not that I have ever owned any particularly nice ones, I can just appreciate a beautiful chair! And hope to have some beautiful ones, one day! This post is a bit of my current stream of consciousness regarding their place in our home.

Contrasting piping! Love it!

The following image is from a Home Beautiful and it is a vintage chair covered in fabric from No Chintz. I ordered a swatch and it is gorgeous in real life, however a cotton - I think I would need a fabric in a more hard wearing fabric for my family! Or maybe or bedroom chairs! I can't help but admire the NY pictures above it!
With that in mind I have been keeping an eye out for a chair to cover. I found this beauty at Paddington Antique Centre. It's a stunning chair but with a price of $800 it was an expensive place to start before fabric and covering costs. I want a real bargain! Haha!
The following image is from Home Beautiful October 2012, one of the 50 best rooms. I of course love the cabinetry but the navy armchairs with piping are stunning. The magazine suggests looking at Orson & Blake for something similar.
I also love everything about this image from Coco Republic, white, again! (Maybe I need those cushions for my couch!)
I went to Ikea over the weekend and noticed a new range of dark blue covers for the EKTORP series armchairs and footstools. Madeline has the EKTORP armchair and footstool in her room but am now considering buying the dark blue cover for the footstool and bringing it out into the lounge. I could even add some trim as above.
For $69 it might not be a bad investment! I will have a think on it. The armchair obsession and window shopping continues! {As does the constant stream of consciousness!)
