Last week while browsing at the Derby Street Shoppes, I stumbled into a wonderfully colorful home decor store called Company C. Oh my. It was like finding a long lost friend. I liked just about every single thing I saw in there and the color palette was right up my alley. I had the whole family with me but was able to look around long enough to be given both a rug catalog and a bedding catalog to take home and drool over. Have I mentioned that our new house has hardwood floors in the entire downstairs? We have a few rugs but they are way too dark and dreary for the sunny, open, beach cottage inspired vibe I envision for the new place. I have several corners folded over with faves including this Dandelion in Cornflower beauty. It just so happens that my new favorite chair was displayed on this very same rug in the store. The fabric is called Kharma and the color is Indigo. I even love the throw they have on it. Not only do I love the lines of this chair, it's very comfortable as well. Amazingly, my dear husband agrees (!)--and it's not even made of leather or an over stuffed recliner. So on my second trip back to the store, I took down the info on my chair including the price (not exactly IKEA...). We'll be taking a look at the budget once we get into the house and maybe, just maybe, this chair (or a close relative) will be coming to live with us.
After all, the kids don't really need a finished basement to play in right away. I'll buy them a nice, soft rug to play on down there. Perhaps from Company C...
