I turned a corner, she caught my eye, my heart raced, and then I walked on by. A glimpse was all it took you see, there were butterflies and gilded leaves. I had an impression of the colour blue. No closer inspection could be permitted; to my Master Card I am already indebted. She is at Winners/Homesense on Consumer Drive, to live without her I shall strive. But would it be wrong of me, If another glimpse I chance to see?
Homesense Chair far more beautiful |
The chair that caught my eye and elicited my prose was hanging out in my local Winners/Homesense. Their furniture sells so quickly that I am sure it will be gone tomorrow. I have NO funds for furniture, yet I covet this unique chair.
our chair is much nicer ... |
I have a fondness for chairs. There is an upholstered green arm chair in our living room which my hubby and I both claim. It is perfectly proportioned and has sheltered one or the other of us for this past ten years. The best place to read, watch television or simply be, this chair is home for him and me. But our chair is starting to wear. Last year I made a slipcover for one arm, now the other needs to be re done. I cannot imagine replacing her.
Thanks to my daughter I have an ergo friendly , comfy office chair which she found at a resale outlet for $35.00! Yet several years ago I found myself bracing my feet when I sat at this office chair. Now I find myself doing the same at the kitchen table, The Ergo sum newsletter tells me
“If the seat of the chair slopes too much, the user will feel like he or she is sliding out of the chair and will brace his/her feet”. Hmm, now how would I remedy that? Since I am not longer bracing my feet in my office, at some point in time my chair has been realigned. There is much to contemplate in the mystery of chairs.
One chair that needs no contemplation is the one in the hospital waiting areas. These chairs a simply Too too! Too small, backs too short, seats too hard, too manyconnected together! To my horror I discovered that when our local hospital renovated the offenders were replaced with “brothers of another colour”! Obviously NO ONE ASKED ME !
That blue chair looks so fragile - I'd be afraid to sit on it! hehe
ReplyDeletedid you actually sit in this chair??although it is very pretty, the back weave looks like it would be hard on the back & uncomfortable..I love my recliner (Brent & I have our own)so I'm usually parked in that after work, when we finally have all the odd jobs done for the evening & it's finally time to relax & check my emails & of course facebook......I think I would notice this chair too ....... take a second look at it, certainly different.....I say buy it if you are still thinking about it!!!
ReplyDeleteThe chair pictured is not the one from Winners. I am returning to Winners today and if she is still there........
