a room that is very lived in

Finally I get around to posting a new room. The living/lounge room...and boy is it lived in. We love this room and this couch. The sun shines in from our small backyard almost all day long. The one thing we need to do (which may take a long time, well after saving for the wedding) is fill it with more furniture. We have stuff, lots of stuff, we just need a few more shelves, tables, boxes and baskets. However I am sure it won't take too many years before we are looking at everything and saying how did we accumulate this much!
While I was photographing the couch I noticed that we seem to have a strange addiction in this house.....

see our ironing board cover








and our new outdoor director chairs









and even our tea towels.









Yes it seems we are addicted to all forms of STRIPES...there are countless other items, socks, placemats, pot holders which are all striped. strange.
