We were looking for furniture
for our patio – a table, chairs and
a sofa to be precise. I’d been
looking for ages to try and find
something characterful in rattan,
and my husband wanted something
modern. He also wanted a sofa that
he could sit outside on and work,
and we were looking for separate
seats for our guests. My husband
suggested the modular style, and we
found one in Woody Antique House
in Dempsey.
As usual when I go to Woody
Antique, I got a good price and good
service from the knowledgeable
staff. The sofa consists of six pieces
that can be put together to make a
large daybed, which is great for my
husband to lay out his work items. Our
daughter can also sit out there with
her friends and play and draw, and I
can separate the pieces and have it so
that friends can also sit comfortably.
We also purchased two armchairs
to match the sofa and, while we were
there, a suar wood dining table-top
leaning against the wall caught my
eye. We ordered a two and a half
metre long table, and chose six
chairs in the same wood, along with
four hyacinth chairs, to break up the
wood around the table.
I absolutely love it. The knot in
the wood and the different colours
in the grain are warm, and the table
maintains my theme of blending the
garden onto the patio.
Now that the table is in along with
the sofa, armchairs and all my new
plants, we can sit out and enjoy more
wonderful times with our daughter
and friends in a warm and very
comfortable outdoor space.
