We’ve been looking high and low for chairs to go with the Farm Table, (posted HERE). We looked at dressy upholstered chairs, french country chairs, an upholstered high-back bench to name a few.
I couldn’t decide to save my life…then my middle daughter Stephanie came up with the perfect solution. She suggested we use the dining room chairs
around the farm table 
…and buy new chairs for the dining room. Brilliant.
I fell in love with these Weathered Gray Wood-Ella Dining Chairs in Cocoa at World Market.
And to dress things up a bit…
Concrete Hayden Arm Chair also from World Market!
I was planning on sewing chair covers this year for the dining room chairs-but these new chairs give the room exactly the look I wanted! (and World Market had a 10% off coupon for President’s Day!)
And the old dining room chairs will be perfect around the farm table…
…just as soon as I recover them! I’m thinking about a burlap-look, what do you guys think? I’d love your suggestions!
xo
I really like the dining chairs with the farm table and I like the World Market chairs. OK…….you know my secret I love chairs! What are you going to recover the dining chairs with? Can’t wait to see! Any Hints?…….?
Diana, I want to use something that looks like burlap but is softer 🙂 Have you seen anything????? xoxo
You know I love the burlap idea.
Question….will you, one of these days, do a blog post where we can write in and ask questions? I want to show you my chairs around my farm table and see if you have any suggestions.
Beautiful pics, Robin!
Julie, good idea about the ? post! But send me your pics now! I’d love to see!! xo
Stephanieis obviously a brilliant girl!!! LOVE the dining room chairs at the farm table and LOOOOVE the new chairs! Perfection!!!! I assume you mean you are going to recover the SEATS of the old chairs, right? Then I would try to find a SOFT burlap for comfort. Love the different colors on the chairs. XO, Pinky
Pinky, YES! The old chairs! And have you seen any fabric that looks like burlap but is softer? I found a linen fabric but it looked like it might not wear well… 🙂
just wondering if you’ve Scotchgarded the fabric or if it comes that way. with the little people you have in your life and the years and years they’re going to be eating at that table, i’d think this is going to be necessary.
i’m sure you’ll come up with something brilliant for the other chairs–you always do!
Jenn…I’ll put a little kitchen towel over the seats and mostly we’ll eat at the big table now 🙂 But worse case …oh well 🙂
Are you going to leave the chairs the colors that they are?
There are lots of verities of chairs available in the market that sometimes i gets confused which to choose . lol
