I got it used and it was basically a gift to myself for getting out of the Army. I saved up a decent amount during my time in and thought why the fuck not. Plus they hold value well so I can flip it/trade it pretty easily.

Good for you man. You deserve it. It's so sick. How much did you get it for? If you don't mind me asking.

thats awesome man!
as for myself, just bought a Nixon Player. definitely not a rolex, but still super stoked
Yup! Damn, good eye. Yeah when I moved in the whole thing was a disaster, a ton of stuff went in the trash, but the one salvageable thing was that furniture. Not the cushions though; those were a total loss. I had to find a manufacturer that made ones that would fit.
And yep, my deck, or part of it. The whole thing looks like so.

what a great entertaining space- nice work! I'm impressed.
Also- if you remember, where did you order the cushions from? I was looking for replacements for mine.
That was the plan! Seating for about 15 in my living room, 22 on the patio, I can entertain about 40 comfortably.
Yeah good luck with that; I went ten rounds with Ikea's headquarters trying to find originals. No dice.
The chaise pads I got off a seller on e-bay and they're about 2cm narrower than ideal. The chair pads fit well, and are just seat pads from the Martha Stewart Living "Charlottetown" set in quarry red, which you can buy at Home Depot in the states. You can't get them in Canada, though, so I had to find out who actually manufactured them and talk to their CS rep to get them to send me 8 pads. The shipping cost almost as much as the cushions. It was still a bit cheaper than custom, though, all in all.
Anyway while we're on the topic of home decorating I also bought this lamp for my bedroom yesterday and I'm super pumped on it. Vintage, about 30 years old.

Nice! I'm in awe of your views.
Thanks for the heads up on the cushions, I will see if I can find those Martha Stewart ones, they look like they fit well, and they're thick which is nice.
I still have the original ones, and they're in decent shape, but they're white......enough said. I can't believe that when IKEA sold that furniture they didn't sell replacement pads. The chairs actually came with their pads and you couldn't buy extras separately-- you'd have to buy a whole new chair.

Needs more patina.
J.D.A pair of fire tables for my deck.
This looks like a place were porn-videos are shot.
