i bought a new chair and hilariously, it is the exact color of evey's caramel swirls

After a friend’s recent purchase of two gorgeous red velvet vintage sofas for 200.00 a piece (!) reminded me of craig’s list, I went a’hunting and found a great, mint condition tweed armchair for 35.00.   It is the perfect addition to my bedroom, which was the weak link of the apartment before it’s presence forced me to rethink the space and get a bit more creative.  This is the bedroom pre-chair:

This is the post-chair arrangement.  It seems that the three of us never want to leave it now with all the comfy lounging potential and sunshine.

Thankfully it is spacious enough for all of us, a lap top and a precariously balanced cup of tea.  Here’s to a successful addition to the family!
