Feeling Jolly

I hope y'all had a wonderful Thanksgiving, I have been listening to Christmas music since November 17th. Now that it is appropriate, I can share my obsessive love of this winter holiday. It's not just the presents, I promise. Any holiday that is called a season, I love, much like my birthday season. Any holiday that has it's own soundtrack. Any holiday that has a giant meal. Any holiday that has it's own color scheme, much like the 4th of July. Any holiday that involves multiple parties. Any holiday that promises another holiday one week later. In the holiday spirit, I found lots of jolly, holly-berry red chairs. Good to use year-round, an unexpected burst of red livens up a space, warms a room, makes your belly shake like a bowl full of jelly.

Most of these chairs you would consider mid-century modern. These designs have been copied and multiplied and tweaked and sold in stores like Ikea for a fraction of the price. I have a real, live Eames molded plywood chair that if my house were burning down might be the thing I grab, besides Birdie dog of course. Any of these m.c.mod. styles could be mixed in with other styles, I think an eclectic mix is the way to go. So if you're in the market, invest in a piece of furniture art. And, ho ho ho.
