Yellow Chairs

These yellow chairs and couch are the perfect bright to put with white. So easy to paint an old vintage chair and add it to any room for a pop of colour. Love the vintage look in all the photos below.

Pins of the Week: Wooden Chairs

The look of these wooden chairs in the dining room and kitchen are really super. I love the pale wood with the black and white contrast. The mix of black and rattan seating or raw wood with black seating it is really so impactful! All of this against stark white walls...so well done.

Have a great weekend!

Inspiration in White: Vintage Chairs

I always love to see vintage chairs in all different states of wear....some with a little rough around the edges fabric or wood that is worn with time. I also think it is the best of both worlds if you can find vintage chairs in decent condition and re-do, paint and re-cover, than buy them new.

Two of the chairs below are mine and they were in a very bad state when I found them but I absolutely love them now! The white settee and the grey chaise long are mine. When if found the white settee it had green velvet fabric and gold wood. There was also no cushion at all on the piece. I had the piece redone in white cotton and added a big feather cushion! The grey and natural linen chaise was pink velvet with dark brown wood. I had seen a picture that inspired me to re-do the chaise in the grey linen with the base in a natural rough linen. They really add to my decor and give a well loved and vintage touch my home. If you can't find a vintage piece to re-do there are so many good chairs now on the market made to give that well worn touch to your home.

Inspiration in White: Wooden Tables and Chairs

There are so many possible looks when it comes to choosing a table and chairs for the dining room or for the kitchen. Modern or mid-century, vintage or traditional they all look great and add a warmth to these rooms. I have been looking for a chair for my studio and the one in the first photo would be perfect! Such a fun vintage piece that would fit so well at my work table. I especially love the natural wood I am showing in these pictures but painted wood is always beautiful as well. I have a stained top on my wood dining room table, with painted legs so I get the best of both!

Modern Mix

I really like the look of mixing modern with a vintage or industrial look and these Eames style chairs fit perfectly into this aesthetic. They would work so well in an office, in the dining room or kitchen and as an extra chair in a modern living room. I can see my future studio looking exactly like the last photo. My ceramics on the wall, a big lunch table with all white Eames style chairs and lots of light streaming through the windows. I would add a couple of vintage lights to this mix and it would be perfect! 

Enjoy!

Interior: Modern Neutrals

This wonderful apartment is all done in great neutral shades, white, black, taupe and grey but it is anything but boring! Modern design with a less is more attitude, makes each piece of furniture selected feel absolutely right in its place in this home. I am so loving the dining room table with the outstanding pendant lamp and those amazing Eames style chairs! The other trend I really think is great is the pendant lamp beside the bed. It adds such an interesting look to the bedroom and gets away from having the lamps on the side-table. Beautiful..

Enjoy!

I was looking for some cushions for one of my clients and I was seeing cable knit cushions everywhere! High end and low end alike, heavy cable knit was in every store and it looks so cozy for this time of year I am tempted to buy some for myself! I started looking around on different websites as well and do you know how many things are made with cable knit in mind? Take a look at just a few ideas...

Mixed Chairs

I saw these photos recently and I was very inspired by the mix and match of chairs around the table. I thought it was so great to have this mix of modern and vintage chairs around a wooden table as you see in the first photo. I have two styles of fabric chairs around my table but I really like when it is mixed not just in style but in color as well. For a more vintage style home it could be natural wood mixed with white painted wood and taupe or cream fabric chairs as well or a mix of metal like the second photo. Here are a few ideas for of how to get this look...

The modern Eames style chairs can be found in white at Interior Addict.

The Tolix chairs can be found at Renovation Hardware.

The french style chairs are also at Renovation Hardware. I just love the mix of fabrics and the bench is so beautiful.

 

Enjoy!
