Not only because this is precisely the kind of shop I'd love browsing in -- but also because it's the way I like to meander when we're travelling -- that kind of discovery is a thousandfold better than following someone else's travel guide (which doesn't mean I won't add your notes to my next London list.<br />I would also choose to keep the original covering -- it will add so much intrigue to whatever room you put it in, its hint of many beckoning stories, of lives lived elsewhere.<br />And why I am not surprised you're one of the few who spell <i>chaise longue</i> correctly (and probably pronounce it properly as well).materfamiliashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16062766947897513369noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7063946489075478675.post-71141625679928304992012-03-31T11:01:13.300-04:002012-03-31T11:01:13.300-04:00Thank you Cindy! :)Thank you Cindy! :)Jeanne Henriqueshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07986759909478180763noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7063946489075478675.post-32360071273957393842012-03-31T10:56:52.318-04:002012-03-31T10:56:52.318-04:00Excellent Choice!Excellent Choice!cindy hattersley designhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16147135323683353754noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7063946489075478675.post-34609171406578412612012-03-31T10:33:26.672-04:002012-03-31T10:33:26.672-04:00Thankfully Jules, I can keep the original covering...Thankfully Jules, I can keep the original covering...at least what is left of it.
