bigreader I'm okie..thanks for caring ..just need time to readjust kind of walked out on my job..so looking for stuff to fill in my time ..I hate being bored and sitting sround fiddling my thumb been looking for courses to do and taking my camera out.. these I took yesterday in Warrandyte..

They all look good, but it all comes down to clearance. How low is your ceiling? How tall is your tallest visitor? How long is the light fitting? Will the light fitting look good if it is close to the ceiling, or will it look cramped and foreshortened? When I moved into my current home (with a taller ceiling than yours), I got an electrician to hang a row of pendants down the length of the hallway so they would be 5 cm taller than my family's Uncle Colin (who was by far the tallest regular visitor). Now twelve years later, Uncle Colin has passed, and my little boy (who was six years old when the pendants were hung) has grown to be 192 centimetres (6'6") and needs to duck everytime he goes to his bedroom. I need to get my electrician back to make all of the pendants shorter, but the proportion of cable length to shade won't be as nice. Best of luck, Dr Retro of Dr Retro House Calls

Hi Kate , I love your tablemats so I might purchase them I also need to get outdoor cushions as seats are a little hard so would I get the plain fawn colour or go for a colour do not know thank you so much I was going for the natural colour which I like but yours are lovely

Thank you! I hadn't heard of Gainsville before - they have something that looks quite similar with the interesting angles. Only challenge is I live in Qld and they are in Vic. I will ask about shipping but it will surely be a bit costly! I had a look on Coco Republic yesterday. Really chasing the glass with minimalist legs and bringing in the timber. Anja was perfect lol.
