The chair……I can now see it!

As said by others what a great post this is. My chair is the one I use for my dressing table. It rarely has anything left on it. It’s not that I am particularly tidy it’s just that the bedroom is very small so everything is always put away.

Yes, I have a recliner chair (moved into the bedroom, ostensibly for an expected guest - when I bought a Rocking Chair for myself, which is now in the living room)!
There is also a full sized bookcase in the same bedroom, due to the lack of wall space elsewhere (three other, similar bookcases are accommodated in the hall and the office).

Now this is the kind of GN post I like! No-one being smug, self righteous or critical, just a group of equals having a fun conversation. After the PJs thread it’s like a breath of fresh air. Me - 2 spare dining chairs and I’d think I was in the wrong house if they were clear.

Sorry I can't do the tech for sending photo but I have a nice Ercol beech rocking chair in the bedroom. I bought it a few years ago from a local charity shop. It's currently draped with a skirt, T-shirt, socks, underwear and a tote bag. This thread prompts me to tidy up. When uncluttered it's a stylish piece of furniture with a nice teal-coloured cushion on the seat. It should see the light of day more often.

Our bedroom is too small for a chair, but we have a lovely 200 year old chair in the dining room which is often piled high with fabrics when I'm sewing, we never seem to actually sit on it. It's clear at the moment. TBH any empty flat surface in our house is fair game for clutter!

Mrsdof I love your butterfly chair, that's so pretty.

Love this! Would dare send a pic of my chair, full of all sorts of things, mainly clothes been on once, don't need washing but don't like to put back in the wardrobe.

Now where was that scarf I was looking for?!

Mrsdof, I love your chair.

Why is everyone reluctant to hang clothes in the wardrobe, once worn? I put mine on a hanger, air them and then back into wardrobe. Surely that would keep them in better shape for the next wear.

I don’t have a chair I have a a bed foot board. My side has half worn cardigans and jumpers on oh and the dress I took off before my nap ( see, I do get properly dressed sometimes- see previous thread)

I'm trying to get DH to relocate his jigsaw puzzles from the dining room to a cupboard somewhere
He needs another reminder, perhaps I'll try to spread them across the hall floor ?

We have a sideboard in the hall that held extra food during the pandemic. It now holds lots of jigsaws as I became addicted to them during lockdown.

Saxifrage I would love to see your chair. I wonder would it look worse than Aveline's.

Love some of these chairs. Great thread.

I’ve had wall 3 pictures and a dangly candle thingy for the ceiling …. All on the chair for at least 2 months now waiting to be put up ?

Gorgeous chair, Coconut

What an unusual chair! Lovely

I have a stool, room far too small for a chair. Dog walking clothes and a kaftan for when it’s hot. Never to be mixed up!

Forgot the pic!

In my defense all our other chairs are clutter free! (Apart from the odd cat of course)
That bedroom chair in my pic is also their fort. One goes under it and safely bops passers by.

I am loving this thread, and looking at the wonderful collection of bedroom chairs.
We have a Lloyd loom chair that only has my things on overnight. DH plonks his on top of a chest of drawers.

I think I was so untidy in my teens, at home, that I am now much better

My chair before and after. No excuse really as it has a hidey hole so I could be tidier.

We have a matching box where Orlin dumps his stuff, it’s clear today, he must have known

Forgot the box, and just discovered why it’s clear , his pj pants are under the bed

I don't have a chair (anymore) but I find the landing banister attracts a lot of attention ?

Looks like an Ercol chair Louisa
My favourite furniture

Coconut, I love this chair! I have one the same shape that I was thinking of getting rid of but I've saved your picture to see if my clever friend might be able to cover my chair like yours. If I photographed mine now, it would be a photo of a pile of clothes topped with the quilted throw I've taken off the bed all balancing on 4 legs!

I need a corner, somewhere to put a chair.

I cleared enough space for them in a cupboard upstairs - so far they're in the wardrobe in the little bedroom, on a high shelf in the study gathering dust and shoved down the side of dining room furniture.

I could take them all out of the boxes and throw them around ?
