Lounge Shopping

While we are waiting to get started we decided to buy a new lounge.... as you do.
At the moment 95% of our household contents are in storage and one of the first things to go in was the lounge.
We are living with relatives in a 3br unit at the moment but in a few weeks they are moving to a new home and we are moving with them. So now we need a lounge for our own lounge room in their new house.

Well, we were going to need 2 more lounges for the new house anyway. (This is my justification and I am sticking to it).


The criteria was:

• Material- Leather, as it will be just inside the back door near the pool. Leather is easier to wipe down if wet bums sit on it. (In our journeys we found cow, buffalo and deer leather)
• Colour- Dark brown or black
• Size- a 3 seater and 2 seater or similar with chaise or similar in modular
• Bonus- some form of ottoman that could be used as foot rest or moved out of the way and used as extra seating during the marathon Wii comps.

So we were lucky enough to find a great priced leather lounge that will fit perfectly in both colour and size with the family room in the new house. We got a 3 seater and 2 seater plus a gigantic 1.5m square leather ottoman. The retailer is holding it for 2 months till we move in, price was pretty reasonable at under $2.5K for the lot.

This is the lounge

This is the colour- Chocolate

This is the ottoman also Chocolate

Also found but didnt buy a fabric lounge for upstairs. Though our old tatty one will do for a while.

A nice Feature chair, but in a different fabric

A nice bamboo screen thing that we could make

Also found the most amazing chair ever at Plush Furniture. It was a leather rocking chair and recliner and was easily the most comfortable chair I have ever sat in. No pic of that one so I might have to sneak back and get one.

If you hadn't guess shopping is my special talent and favourite hobby :)
