Yay! I am so happy! I finally have a real house. Say goodbye to living with friends and hallo to living with the boyfriend :) And it is really good. With a new house, we also decided to get an almost-new interior. Since we both didn't have that many stuff, we had all the freedom in finding an interior that would fit us both. Because my brothers are cabinet makers, I have the luck that I could design two new tables together with them that are completely my taste of design. And it almost cost nothing :) Of course they are in search of some good PR too, so look underneath for their great industrial designs. The two tables are made of scrapwood and the dining table is combined with two blue trestles we found at this steel fabric where we were allowed to search for some old stuff. Sometimes you just have to be a bit bold to get what you like ;) Because the tables are all but new, with a rough, unfinished look, I have chosen two lockers that fits this kind of look. The large locker is an oldie, I bought through marktplaats (you can find precious things there, but make sure not to pay too much!) from a photographer who used it in her former working space. We are planning to create shelves in this locker and make it a bookcase for all the cooking books (my broyfriend has hundreds of them). We found a nice steel-look bin and I combined eveything with my vintage chesterfield couch, that brings a bit of romance in the living room. I am not yet finished with the accessories yet, but managed to find some old bottles, nice vases and an antler that I have put on the dining table to make it more cosy (the table is 2 meters by 1 meter, so there is enough to decorate it and still have plenty of space to eat!). The industrial table is made more modern with help of my eames friends. Not the real ones yet, I am saving up for those in the future ;)
