It's a long weekend here in Canada (Labour Day) and we're really going to soak it all in and take a real weekend break. Hope to get a bit organized and prepared for "back to school" and all that it entails. So I leave you with a lovely photo Janis Nicolay took a bit back for one of her magazine shoots and posted on her blog this week. It looks like a great place to sit back and relax on a long weekend such as this. Fun Fact: I never knew this, but Janis tells us those happy yellow chairs are vintage 70's Solair chairs, which are designed and made in Canada. It's fun to see them being re-manufactured again. Anyway, here's wishing you all a fantastic long weekend! See you Tuesday! (Designed by Andrea Mclean).

I hope that you enjoy some of this yourself as the weather starts to cool a bit and there is a bit of extra time for relaxing.

I've always liked those chairs : )
Have a great weekend, oxo.
Thanks Ladies! You too!
Ohhhhh that frenchie!! adorable!!
Those chairs are so comfy too, btw!
I love ours. It's kinda cool that they were made in Canada ;)
One more thing...
Have a lovely long weekend Jan!
that is so cool that you haven't had to start school yet, we've been in school in Cali for 3 weeks. happy weekend!
We picked up a couple of original chairs last summer in the Junction. Have always admired them and there is one last motel in west Toronto on the Lakeshore that is kept looking funky because they have a row of these in bright yellow.
You do have to watch the originals because they are quite brittle and can split between the holes. The newer versions are likely the way to go. Super comfy!
Always nice to have a bit of a break! Can't wait for our next long weekend, I plan to sleep for most of it :)
What color is your fence stain? Love!
Hi Kristin,
It's not my fence (unfortunately) but it is a great color isn't it?
