Store opening and competition
Sat, 22 Sep 2012
A big shout out to South East Queensland readers. Keep the early evening of Thursday 27 September free. Matt Blatt is celebrating their Newstead store opening and I will be there to help. It’s going to be a fun evening with champagne, canapés, gift bags and 15% off in store for the night. (You need to RSVP by 24 September. All the details are just below.)
Just as exciting is that Matt Blatt has kindly given me two of these fabulous chairs for an Australian reader to win as part of the celebrations. Matt Blatt's version of this classic Mexican chair is valued at $345 each and perfect for summer! Today is certainly hot in my neck of the woods and I could do with one of these tangy beauties to relax in and catch some rays.
What do you need to do to win these summer time essentials?
- You need to be an Australian resident. (Boo! I know overseas readers. It is not fair but Matt Blatt is only based in Australia.)
- You need to tell me, in the comments below this post, in 25 words or less "How would these chairs make your summer perfect?".
- You need to leave a name and email address for us to be able to contact you when you win.
- You need to answer in 25 words or less .... honestly ... 25 ... or less. Better count them.
OK get going. Time to think up your most creative answers. You can enter as many times as you like before 5.30pm AEST Saturday 6 October 2012.
See you on Thursday night! I'll be the one with the champagne in one hand, camera in the other, snapping pics, chatting and figuring out what to add to my wish list. Can't wait to meet you.
CONTEST IS NOW CLOSED.

It's the epitome of a summer cocktail in a chair! Paper parasol optional.
accompanied by a mojito, they would be the perfect antidote to no longer being in Acapulco.
Because the stripes they'd leave on my bum would remind me of my 1970s tropical childhood - and I could share the joy with my kids.
With my first baby due in 4 weeks these would be perfect for lazy afternoons in the sun with newborn babe!
Roses are red violets are blue, so are Matt's chairs, and many other colours too... I win!
They would be my sunshine on a rainy summer day.
These fun and festive chairs would mean we wouldn't have to sit on the concrete balcony anymore! Sounds perfect to me.
These chairs are the perfect splash of summer I need for my new pool yard gazebo. Happy Days!
Picture a dull grey little balcony and then... bright coloured ACAPULCOS! Hell yeah!
Did I mention the grey situation? It's a cement jungle out there- it's a design DILEMMA! I need acapulcos to solve this!
This is my girlfriend's favourite chair! Imagine how awesome a boyfriend I would be if I won her one! Let's make this happen!
Pretty pops of color to perch on by the pool - perfect!
Sitting on my balcony in glacial Hobart, I could daydream about coconut trees, giant palms and a deck to the sea.
Not only would they make my summer perfect they would keep the fiesta going through the dark winter months too!
I remember having a round plastic cane chair as a child, these chairs remind me of it. I'd love an adult version of it please!
Because as unbelievable as it sounds it would give me more pleasure than an entire block of Cadbury Chocolate.....and that's hard to do!!!
Blatt Señor, me temo que mi dinero está un poco baja, así que por favor, ¿puedo ganar dos sillas hermosas para mi humilde morada?
In summer, overshadowed by trees, surrounded by bees, this is where you would find me, sitting in my ACAPULCO LOUNGE CHAIR from Matty B.
I like Mexican. I like Matt Blatt. MexiBlatt. Mattican. Awesome.
Pink chair for moi, aqua for him, relaxing on our back deck, oh how I'd love to win!
My house sits on 936 square metres of land and i dont even own 1 piece of outdoor furniture. missing the sunshine
My pergola leans to the left, but these chairs would right that wrong making it a perfect outdoor summer.
These beautiful chairs would be the inspiration for a make over on my 70s back patio, beautiful statment pieces.
LOVE luuurve these chairs so much! We are redecorating, these would really be the Mexican cherry on top of my perfect Summer!
To soak up the sun or to relax after a day on the run - Matt Blatt, sure knows where an ass should be sat.
