Finishing Touches

To finish setting up house I am shopping for a couple more things: a big art piece for my dining area and one or two chairs for the front room. I like this bird print from this house tour that I can't stop thinking about.As for chairs, we are looking for arms and comfort and style. Hard to find all in one? Yes! Do I really want a La-Z-Boy recliner instead? Yes! I am all about comfort. But I need something cool to look at, too. Here's an interesting option. This plain IKEA chair plus a slipcover in the fabric of my choice from JCaroline Home.
This wingback chair has already won my heart but doesn't have arms; plus, a floral pattern will never do in our unisex household.
I died over these chairs from a vintage shop found on Craigslist. I even drove there and sat on them. They are $500 for the pair but I'd buy them with the intent to reupholster. And to reupholster each would be an estimated $700. Yeehaw!
