I finally got a round to painting & staining the
Form Group pieces the other day. I painted the pieces for the base (base, 4 legs & leg supports) in black, & stained the pieces for the table top & seat.
Next step, gluing everything together, varnishing, then onto making cushions for the seat.
Some photos of the mock-ups in the living room. Both a 2 + 3 section combination (first photograph), or a 2 + 4 section combination (2nd photograph) seem to work well in this room.
Later this week I should be receiving
V&A Pattern - The Fifties by Sue Prichard, which I'm very much looking forward to, I've also been looking at the 1940's & 50's wallpaper in the
V&A's online archives recently for ideas & inspiration for the Gothenburg (+ I'm just a sucker for textile & surface design).
Links to some favourites in the V&A's archives:
The Form Group's looking good. Looking forward to seeing them finished article. Thanks for the links in V&A, always looking for inspiration for minis =0)
ReplyDeleteThank you Pepper, I really need to get it finished, but I've been a bit worried about messing it up at the final stages. Argh.
