New Dining Chairs ~ Sneak Peak

Hey ya'll!  Hope everyone had a great weekend!  I got up SUPER early today (5am!) to drive out to Ft. Worth to pick up some dining chairs I found on Craigslist!  As some of you know, I have been on the hunt for affordable chairs for our dining room.  I had a look that I was envisioning, which was not so cheap...haha.  So, it took a while to find the perfect chairs that matched my budget.  Yesterday we actually bought two amazing Craigslist chairs that I originally wanted for our living room.  They were $25 for the pair!  But, when we got home, I put them on the ends of the table, and I loved the way it looked.  Then, yesterday afternoon I found an amazing set of 6 chairs that had been completely re-done...and I just couldn't pass it up!  

Here are my $25 (for both!) chairs...




I'm thinking of recovering them in a stone/gray colored linen fabric, then putting some fluffy 20x20 square pillows in the seats to make the room feel warm and comfortable.  I want something that is classic versatile in case they get moved to another room at some point.  

Fabric Idea for the Chairs:



This way, I can switch out pillows to match our decor and/or when I change my mind :)

20x20 throw pillow ideas for the high back chairs...




Here are the 6 amazing new chairs!  All 6 only cost me $150!  Can you tell I'm excited?!?

Finnley & Tucker are checking them out :)




Can't wait until it is all finished!  I found a local guy to reupholster the chairs for a pretty reasonable price to...so hopefully those will get done in the next couple of months.  

If you haven't stopped by our Kickstarter page, please do!  Would love you to be a part of supporting our small business & also sending Cinnamon Rolls to our troops overseas!  It's such a neat opportunity! Stop by and read about it!
