If any of you have the Ideal Home Hen's house was in there is a lovely home in there that has six of them around their kitchen table, she has the dark ones and does look nice even with light coloured furniture.
Mary I know which house you mean in that issue and the dark did look fab but in yours I think the lighter ones would look better? with your kitchen being white and lots of your things are !"lighter" coloured so would blend in better - although just to confuse matters if you wanted a definite contrast with all your other bits and pieces then the dark would look good ! - i was thinking of your settle you have and thats lighter isnt it ?

Yes are being sold as a set of six, four would have worked too, though think BM3 prefers the dark

We already had some discount though I have asked for more, I like nice round figures

Thank you for the gorgeous fabric letter for DD by the way, adorable and so well made

I think they have seat covers on from IKEA, I'm sure I saw those the other day

They look good against the light table Mary
