Precious
Between all the Holiday Decoration posts I thought it would be nice to share some funky furniture with you from Norway ... After graduation Katherine worked as a graphic designer for a year, but felt
that it was not the right choice for her ... the idea is sell one-of-a-kind furniture that are based on recycling
and redesign of old second hand pieces came to her when she sold her apartment in Oslo and bought an old house in her hometown, Tønsberg (one hour from Oslo)..
Katherine wanted furniture that suited their new house, that was unique and had an edge. So she started to buy old furniture and redesign them ... Katherine loves to use a lot of bright colours
and fabrics found on travels or wallpaper from my neighbors
attic.
Last september Katherine opened an online furniture shop called Precious, with the furniture she has redesigned, painted and upholstered herself ... have a look here ...
Great furniture with lots of peronality and a fresh break from all mass produced pieces in shops. A perfekt mix of humour and romance. Love it!

I have a chair with a needle point type upholstery that I purchased at auction years ago. I've been looking for inspiration on how to update it--and I think I just found my inspiration! Thanks!

Squealing...I love that stuff. I wish I knew how to do it myself. It's so pricey to buy

"Precious" is really the right word for those things!
