Set Research

Hey guys, here's the primary source inspiration:



I've got four table options:














Thoughts on chairs.  I lean towards the plastic garden chairs, especially the yellowish ones:



I also thought about plastic folding chairs:



I think I prefer the garden chairs because there's something too matchy-matchy about the folding chairs and folding table.  Your thoughts, team?

Then, I picked a few objects to focus on: the ironing board, the textbook, and the lipstick.  Found ironing board and textbook I LOVE:




Now, lipstick.  This object needs to be special, needs to be the only pristine object in the play.  It's a jewel.  It's beautiful.  So I was thinking about what the lipstick tube should look like -- it needs to really jump out at us.  Gold?  Silver?  Pink?  Red?  Crazy Purple?  Thoughts?  My fave is the gold -- there's something glorious about it, elegant.  Examples below:










Looking forward to feedback!
