Why do I love chairs? I'm just not sure. But chairs and rugs and dishes are something I gravitate toward. I buy chairs just because. I see them nestled in a corner of my home, flanking a fireplace or as a future focal point with custom upholstery.
Sometimes I buy in pairs and usually I'm looking for a great deal. So Craigslist and auctions, estate sales, flea markets, Home Goods, and Garden Ridge are all great places to pursue the art of chair collecting.
Here are a few of my finds and some of my redo's:
 |
| My french chair/ottoman that I found at Ballard's Backyard. No cushions so I made them! |
 |
| an old dining chair redo |
