Introducing Mr Stripey!...(My zebra rug...)

You might remember a few weeks ago i puchased this zebra (on cow hide!) on ebay (from this store if you want one! http://stores.ebay.com.au/more-cowhides-rugs-leathers-pillows/Store-Home.html

Well it arrived yesterday (took 2.5 weeks to arrive from Miami to Sydney) and was only $230 USD...oh & that means also only $230 AUD! Woohoo for the US dollar! So...here he is! Mr Stripey at my joint!
hmmm looking very black & white in here...
might need some new cushions now!

ooohh ariel shot! Yes i stood ontop of the lounge to take this!

Meanwhile, the old rug, this cool freedom galaxy silk look shag rug now needs a new home of its own & i have listed it on ebay - love the cycle of ebay & i think its great to pass on your old stuff rather than chuck it (what a waste!) Anyone in sydney in the market for a stylish rug check it out! Its only 1 year old & still in freedom for $600 & ive listed it for $170 http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=140473177024&ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT

Oh & one more cool thing to finish off the week!
One of my readers Lisa sent me a picture of this inspiration board she's mader herself all with pictures from Once Daily Chic! How cool is that! Its exactly why i started this blog so its made my day....maybe even week! Here is is!
