I'm hoping to be able to find another two or four seats in a similar style and varying colours so we have a mismatched (yet still stylish) dining table.

Last night I went down to the farmhouse to help my dad and brother move all of the furniture into the kitchen so the steam cleaners can clean the carpet today! I went over all the carpeted areas with my grandparent's Dyson, which is now on my 'Must Buy' list - it literally sucked up 25 years of dust out of the carpet. In just three rooms and I had to empty the catcher 4 times!
The house is definitely beginning to feel more like ours with the removal of all the furniture and the near completion of the interior painting. It does appear that I stuffed up my timeline somewhat! It should read:
Tues 16th (today) - carpets cleaned
Mon 22nd - Fri 26th - Oscar the painter in
So... I was a week out with my timeline, which means we should be able to move in earlier! It'll be a relief to be able to move in gradually, especially considering how finicky I am, and I'm bound to become one grumpy, dictating girl!

My next item to find is a retro garden bench like this:
Then I'll paint it in pastel colours - I simply cannot find a picture online though. Am I crazy in thinking that items like this used to have their wooden slats painted in alternate pastel colours? I'm thinking pastel pink, green, blue and yellow.

Yes, there definitly were sets like this when I was growing up! All hail the stripy garden setting!
