Have a Seat (or Two, or Three)

Brandon gave me a new Eames chair for my birthday! And a Panton. And a few more by Arne Jacobsen, Eero Saarinen, and Mies van der Rohe. And then some additional Eames chairs for good measure. They’re miniature sized (but they’re big on cute).

I picked up a miniature zen garden that came with a cute little chair about a month ago, and I thought it was pretty adorable. I had no idea at the time that Brandon had seen a whole slew of mini designer chairs and that he was already planning to give them to me for my birthday. Eleanor is going to have a really awesome dollhouse someday.

    Happy Birthday!
    I just have to say these are the sweetest little gifts I ever saw! And the greatest way to collect these classics for not a huge amount of money (or space taken up… ) !

    that is soooooooooooooooo cool! if the garden came with the vases instead, did you make the bowls? the bowls are cute too but i like the design of the vases.
