Naturally, the one I covet is "price upon request."
Yep, I'm wondering about that chair...
Where is the bowl set from?
It's encouraging to know that some of the best design ideas out there don't come with stratospheric price tags. Pick carefully and you can get gems at Ikea and West Elm -- and possibly those high designer items which don't warrant the sticker shock will slowly disappear.
I can't seem to navigate my way through to the bowls?? I want a set - please tell me where. I have a complete lack of space in my kitchen, for storage, and sets like that can make a huge difference for how my kitchen functions, overall. Fun colours too!
My comment is on the dining set - wouldn't the chairs be too low for the table for comfortable dining? Normal chairs sit much higher up.
The chair looks a little funky but to each their own.
I love the bowl set and the bed - both look so useful.
That IKEA set is very nice to look at but incredibly uncomfortable! The seat of the chair is nothing but wrong.
Those chairs and the table are $449 total or around that here in Canada. They are alright to sit on as they have a padded seat. I'm not sure if I would buy the set, perhaps if it came down another $100. It would be good for a small space though!
Thank you KTG! I am so impressed with your skillz. I really did not think there was a live link to the bowls. Thanks for your efforts; I will go and order those bowls now unless they are $200.
Thanks!!
