If you’d like to send us photos to include in next week’s “pets on furniture” post, please ensure your photos follow our basic rules: First, the pet must be on a piece of furniture. And said piece of furniture must be clearly visible in the photo, so it takes center stage rather than your pet. (Think of it more of a photo of a great piece of furniture that you want to show off…and your pet happens to be sitting on it). And second, the photo must be of decent quality. If it’s dark or fuzzy (from a camera phone) then it may not make the cut. Thanks! (Photos, your name, location and a brief description can be sent to desiretoinspirekim[@]hotmail[.]com and PLEASE don’t send me closeups of your pet!)

Miffy catnapping on my reclaimed wooden bar stool from the building site of a knocked down Dalston pub, against a backdrop of several years worth of vintage suitcases collected from car boot sales, skips, charity shops and the streets of London.

My king charles cavalier, Ginger doing what she does best…rest and relax on my living room sofa. Mohair is hard to resist!

I’ve got some pics to submit again. This time its my English Bulldog, Butterball. She always finds different places to snooze but i thought this was really cute. She’s lying on my “magic carpet” on my striped rug. All the colors came together so beautifully. So much viibrance and yet there she was in this vibrant setting sound asleep.

Here is Pumpernickel, four months old, sitting on my amazing “As is” IKEA find (200$ instead of 400$). The second photo was taken by Daniel Kudish, pet (and wedding) photographer, when she was about two months old.

Jamal (11yo rat terrier/chihuahua mix) and Kitty (3yo DLH) don’t agree on much but they can both agree that this love seat is their favorite piece of furniture to lounge on.

Here’s Good Girl Kitty on the dresser in my entry. She loves to look out the front door from her perch.

This photo was a before and after feature on my blog. The couch that Oliver is sitting on was a hand-me-down, but I updated it’s look with new cushion covers from Saffron Marigold. You can view the post here. I live in Oklahoma and Oliver is my energetic yorkie (caught in an unexpected calm moment in the photo). The credenza in the background is actually one of my favorite finds. It is teakwood, Dutch and in a mid-century style, I found it for just $300.
