mid-century monster.

I’ve been bitten.
By the Mid-Century Monster.

What, you might ask, is the Mid-Century Monster?

Well….it is being bitten by a love for all things Mid-Century Modern.  I’m about to sign myself up for a subscription to Atomic Ranch!  Considering that I live in a ranch house, it’s definitely a good thing that my design sensibilities are finally catching up with what I’ve got to work with.  I am gradually working toward streamlining my decor.  Especially since Becca & Chris found us a cool new couch for FREE that fits in with this style, I’ve been super inspired.  

First things first: we’re going to need some new seating.

Here are some options I am currently 
obsessing over….

We’d be sitting in style with any of these options.  Now to convince Craig that these are within the means of our pocketbooks :).

  1. that white chair with rockers on the bottom is calling my name. you have a good eye for such unique things.

  2. mid-century stuff is the bomb. luckily that’s when my parents grew up and they think that stuff is really ugly. (so we can steal there old stuff) right now it sits in storage waiting to be part of my house. when it is i’ll let you know.

  3. You and me both. I can only dream right now but maybe one of these days I’ll have a house full of Eames 🙂

  4. I own the second chair…but in black. It lives in our guest room and we love it 🙂

  5. Oh I love these!

  6. I love fabric covered buttons on couches. If you want to pretty much die of envy visit Hive Modern downtown.

  7. Hahaha! I love these! I’m so glad you are finally embracing what you have and working with it instead of against it!

  8. LOVE all of it. But then again, this monster bit me a long time ago 🙂

  9. I love the papa bear loveseat with the ottoman….just went to the website though, yikes, that’s spendy! It’s beautiful though.

  10. I was gonna say, considering you live in a ranch you have to like Mid century stuff!
    Jus thinks my taste is too modern but I always remind him that we only have 3 eames chairs and so it’s ok to add a little more.
    Have you checked out the-brick-house.com? Morgan’s got great taste and her home is full of MCM goodness!

  11. I don’t really like the mid-century stuff too much, too many sharp angles for me. But I’ve always lusted after my parents’ prized eames chair. It always looks rich and sleek to me. Go figure…
