Built to relax the Eames lounge chair is made from molded plywood and leather and feels both inviting and luxurious.

The sleek and sexy Panton chair is still as innovative and contemporary today as it was when it was originally designed 50 years ago. Created by the famous Danish designer Verner Panton it has become one of the most iconic pieces of 20th century design.

Julie from Shelter always manages to post such tasteful makeovers. Check out the before and after of this lovely vintage Chippendale chair. I love the colour choice, a trendy turquoise - Pantone colour of the year 2010 - just fabulous, don’t you agree?

I am starting a new weekly section where I plan to feature a few of my Etsy favourites. To kick it off I have selected two items from a couple of Etsy shops: a beautiful antique soft gray chair from SparrowsNest and a gorgeous linen pillow from DedeEtsyShop.
