In the above photos, there are chairs indeed in my dining room!  They work quite nicely with my table, so I will be ordering another couple of chairs to complete the set.  So, my little Indonesian worker will soon be at work on another two chairs.

As I said when I bought my house, the growth in my furniture is a slow burn.  Once I get the other two chairs, the dining room will be complete.

So, in 6 weeks, I will finally be able to sit at my dining room table.  Yes, procrastination was most certainly king on this front for me.  Those of you who have joked will have little reason to do so much longer.
