My Home | Dining Room Update

Good things come to those who wait. This is often the case when you're in your twenties and have a tight budget. You may remember that I posted about purchasing a new Saarinen Tulip table for my dining room. That was back in June, it's now November. That means my table has been chairless for the past 5 months. God time really flies by. Anyway, I always tell myself that beautiful things take time to come to fruition, so instead of running out and buying cheap chairs that I didn't really want, I waited. And as luck would have it, I scored my dream chairs for a fraction of their original price!

This is the second year in a row that I've made a major purchase at the Jayson Home & Garden warehouse sale. Last year I purchased my dream sofa (here), this year, 4 Vintage Louis XVI Chairs.  I'm absolutely, head-over-heels in love with them.  The wonderful striped wood finish, linen upholstery and vintage suzani backs work perfectly with my current decor.  Now, all I need is some nice china!

  6. Love those chairs, the mixed upholstery is to die for--and i love the mix of vintage with that lacquered modern table. I've been looking for one just like it, got my eye on one at Crate. Where did you find yours?
