My New "Momma Bear" Chair & Sofa
Last time I showed pics of our new sofa, this time I'm showing our bookcase, antique floor lamp, AND.........
My "Momma Bear" Chair......This one is all mine to cuddle up in!
I hope to soon make a new slipcover for my old ottoman, but til then the battenburg cover will have to do.
THIS is what really sold me on the set ~ all the special tailoring on the back of the chair. Muffin, our cat, just loves to lie in wait underneath & scare our poor little dogs to death as they unsuspectingly stroll by!
I had so many of you write and ask about the box on my coffee table that I decided to show a couple more pics here. It is extremely special to me, as it was one of the last things my dear daddy ever made for me.
I decorate for all the different seasons & holidays using this pretty glass-footed piece now. Right now two of my specially sweet friends & PRH sisters goodies are in it, an adorably sparkly lavender filled sachet ("stress buster" gift for my daughter's wedding for the nervous Mother of the Bride) from Katie of Rose*Breeze*Boutique, & a precious handsewn sequined felt heart & vintage bling bling brooch from dear sweet Rhea of Sweet N Shabby Roses. Rhea is having a giveaway so jump over to her blog to enter! And Katie doesn't have a blog, but run here to look at her ebay listings as she is making some adorable items for Valentine's Day & Easter!
Mary from Oh Merci made me the unique little pink Putz style paper church ~ I'm constantly amazed at all the detailing she puts into everything she makes! Daughter & her husband gifted me with the white bottle brush trees & I'm just not ready to put them away yet! I usually put out all my snowmen right after Christmas, but this year has been so unusually warm I just didn't get them all out......supposed to be in the lower 20's here tonight, so I just might drag them out yet!!
A closeup of my very favorite old crazed teapot on a tray that I painted & added fabric to.
Next time I'll be showing more pictures of my glass topped church table & some spring goodies!Hugs,

Hi Stephanie, your living room looks gorgeous, the box your daddy made is precious, a lovely place to hold special mementoes. I love your Mama Bear chair, I want it!!!! What a great find:) Rachael
Hi Stephanie,
Love the new furniture. Just bliss! When you take more pictures please take a close up of the tiled back server I see in one of your pics. I have almost bought one of those twice over the years but just no room for one. Your home is beautiful & full of wonder things made by dear friends & I love the box your dad made.
Oh how comfy your Momma Bear chair looks.

Hello Stephanie, Thank You for the sweet visit. Love your Momma Bear chair. The buttons on the back just put the finishing touches on it.
Your box is so special from your Dad.
What a beautiful way to show all your lovely things. Have a nice week,
Hugs Mary:)
Hello Stephanie,
I love your new "Mama Chair". Please , oh please try to catch a photo of your "sweet" cat in hiding! I would love to see!!!
I have a pink chair that i reupholstered many years ago in three different fabrics. I love it.
Thanks for posting the pictures of my church! I love the box that our father made for you! It is so beautiful but I tear up at the knowledge of your father crafting it for you. I have a chair that my father was working on for my sister in NY. I am keeping it for her until she moves to NC.
Your home is beautiful!
With Kindness,
mary

Stephanie, Your pictures are lovely. I am especially drawn to that amazingly gorgeous white box your daddy made for you. What a treasure to behold and you have it decorated beautifully! Stunning! I just love all your new furniture. Enjoy it in good health.
What blogger wouldn't love that chair!!! It's so US :)
Hi thank you for comments...I have two pics on my blog of two shoes... I have not posted yet they go so fast! Ever since Eco Chic Weddings and Ullabenulla posted them on their blogs!
I just received a Wedding order on Cape Cod..The wedding is going to be
at the Cape Cod Art Museum ..how perfect..lucky gal!
I think that might be the prettiest chair and sofa I've ever seen. One day I will have one that is "just right" too. After my house isn't full of boys and young men all the time.
Hi Stephanie, Iam Mary from http://daisybouquet.blogspot.com. I am a first time visitor and love your blog. The box you Father made is very beautiful....Mary
OH, I want to snuggle up with a good book and cup of tea in your Momma Bear chair- and when you come home, I'd be happy to move on over to the couch! So pretty!
Hi Stephanie did you find the Magical shoes? Did the email go thru?
Steph...your home is just PEFECT..and I love the *Momma Bear* reference, cause you are right...it DOES remind me of that story! YOU go MOMMA BEAR!!! lol
Love ya...Lorena
Steph, LOVE the sofa and chair. Very soothing colors.
hugs, Vickie
It's all lovely - the beautiful special box, the tea pot, and the new sofa and chair. But even looking at the photos makes me cringe at the thought of what my evil cats would do to such a pristine setting. I guess I'll keep my cats and less than perfect decor, sigh, but it's nice to know good furniture truly exists somewhere out there in the world.
I so enjoyed seeing your lovely home and pretty treasures! :)
Steph, I can view your family room over and over and still see something more that makes your room so special. Just love your new furniture and they way you have displayed everything. BEAUTIFUL!
HUGS,
