i'm thinking of buying this

[nishi]

i changed my mind I want to be the crazy uncle.

Have you searched for similiar sofas on ebay Nishi?

i have. and while this one is more flowery than my house can handle, the original barkcloth and the great shape makes it worth looking at:

but paying shipping on a sofa is a fucking nightmare.

so, the most they would take off on the west elm was about $50, so ignom, if you want it, it's there.


but i found this on ebay, and it's indianapolis, so i can go pick it up!!

That's awesome.

I want this chair.  It's free and in the Highlands.  I don't have anywhere to put it, though.

[ReBurn]

How about in your apartment?

[Jessie]

At this point I'm not even sure that I can fit a Christmas tree in my apartment.  I guess I could put it in my bedroom, maybe.

I think I am going to get a leg lamp for my house for the holidays.

go get it. i'll store it until ignom comes and you can pawn it off on him. that's a great chair.

I have nowhere to put it and no way to haul it.

Here's the link if you're interested in it, and they still have it.

well, it's a great chair, i'm sure i can make good use of it of it until you're ready for it, so we both win!!

also, the guy has a very interesting accent, so i'm eager to see what that's about.

but..... OOOOO, i want that pink sofa!! i'm all about pink herculon eames-era sofas. the giant loop de loop thing is just a total bonus.

i probably won't have it all together all the time. i guess it depends on how far the front curve extends. and bye-bye to "coffee table in front of the sofa" decor. but still. yay!!!

That sofa certainly is large.

[Jessie]

One day I'll have a living room big enough and with enough character to pull of furniture like that.

Your house is perfect for that sort of thing.

That sofa certainly is large.

or, 'ginormous', as we say in the old country.

it's fucking huge. the fact that it's modular will help enormously with the "where the hell is this thing going to fit??" issue.
