In fact, I want SIX purple ostriches — just like these ones:
Designer Samantha Pynn featured these chairs in the July 2009 issue of Style At Home. She bought the chairs from Craigslist and then had them painted and re-upholstered in a this super-cool lavender faux ostrich leather fabric.
I forgot about them till a couple of weeks ago when Samantha showed them during a segment on Cityline. And now that I’ve pretty much settled on a colour scheme for the living room, I want purple ostrich chairs too!! So now be vewy, vewy quiet, because today we’re hunting ostwitches…
Hey, don’t worry, it’s faux ostrich leather!! Besides, real ostriches don’t come in purple :-)

That looks really pretty! And here I am going to be painting white chairs brown! I guess we should be grateful ostrich's don't come in purple.
Such a great color..., and quite a character that bird.
I did see these chairs and thought of you right away, very pretty! how are things going, are you enjoying school?

Designers! They have billions of items to chose from and what do they want?
What's not available. ;)
Not that I would know anything about that. *eyedart*
You are so funny! Love those chairs though, I'm using orange faux ostrich on some ottomans going underneath a coffee table!
Kelly you are a riot!!! Is this the plan for the Kijiji chairs?
And what a nosy bird he is !!
That is a freaky picture. It's like the ostrich is looking right at you.
Love it!

Those chairs are fabulous! And I think that ostrich is wondering where Samantha found his purple cousin?!
