So the time came to revamp my living room. Every year I say this year I'm going to make some changes and for some reason or another I have never got around to do it. I have reached the last straw. My boyos haven't left anything without being stained, torn or scratched! It is so embarrassing that I stopped having friends over. Not even to forget the overflow of books I'm facing. I have to give up some of my books. (anyone interested in romance books?)
I love colors and I get drawn to them very easily, making me forget my objective in finding something stainproof and durable, for at least the next five years. Like the other week I was in Thajeej to get my computer checked when I passed by Midas and decided to stop and have a look. I've been there only once, and several times at their other branch in Shuwaikh, although I like some of their furniture and accessories they haven't had new items since they opened and some are really overpriced.
I had my cam with me and wanted to snap few pictures but a sales person told me I wasn't allowed. Still I managed to snapped some pics with my mobile like a thief. So I apologize in advance for the quality of pics.
If I buy this sofa... I will need a disco ball and
Go Go Boots to go with it ;)
Nasty!
This is a tacky LV imitation coffee table.
I found this terrace round tent lounge chair.
Not sure what's the technical name.

I just love vibrant colors! Sometimes I go to extremes with
colors but not this time. I'm going to take care of
what I'm going to chose and be very cool about it.
*Sigh* Sooo beautiful cabinets and consol and mirror.
I love this parrot folding partitions.
This table and matching chairs are amazing! I can just imagine it
in my dinning area.
Still I'm going to stay away from these. I need something sturdy and within a realistic price, 3ashan ma at7asar if my monkies inflicted some damage on the furniture pieces.
We have something in common...

ReplyDeleteI have two very good couches two large arm chairs and my favorite reading seat a chaise longue...on a three seater the other is a two seater very good qaulity. I have reached the decision of upholstering them into solid colors… I'm thinking one purple the other green and have a multi colored cushions. Maybe the arm chairs would be pink? LOL!!! When I'm done with it… yeah…it's going to be a circus ;p
But the awful thing about my living room are the books!!! So many of them!!! I already filled a box... interested in Historical romances???
