Bertoia

Hi everyone!  I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas.  Mine was amazing, it was just the perfect amount of family time, baking, eating, celebrating, and relaxing.  I feel energized and ready to begin the new year and I have so many ideas and projects that I can't wait to start working on.  My incredible husband got me a set of 4 Bertoia [style] chairs for Christmas, can you believe it?!   It is so amazing to have a husband who shares my insane love of mid century design and I can't wait to display the chairs throughout our house.  One is definitely going in our studio, the others maybe in the dining room.

Our home is really starting to take shape and we plan on putting a lot of our efforts into home projects in 2011.  We finally finished the couch but I use the term 'finish' loosely.  The back piece is pinned in place because we are waiting on some cardboard tacking strips to complete it, but we moved it into our living room and all I can say is wow!  I am so in love with the way it turned out and the personality it brings to the room.  I promise to take pics soon and do a whole post on project details but like I said, there are still a few finishing details that need to be worked out but I am sitting on it as I type this and it's so comfy and perfect in this space.

I am still planning on a light posting schedule this week as I make preparations for the new year and savor the last fleeting moments of 2010. I hope you all will do the same!
