My Favorite Chair!

 
Hi everyone!
 
I was more than thrilled when One Kings Lane approached me to write about my favorite chair! Their décor tool, Home Decor Resource Guide, includes a fun and informative insight into a myriad of topics regarding chairs. From history to styles to fabric care - there is so much to learn from this guide and it really is invaluable if you are looking for that special piece to add to your home (or if you just want to learn more about something you already own.)_
 
I knew which chair I was going to write about as soon as they contacted me.  It is a comfy, upholstered chair in our den.  Made by Best Chair Company in Indiana, my club-styled chair is called Tyne and it is fabric #30105, a tapestry. I also am pretty psyched that it is made in the USA!
 


I looked high and low for just the right chair for this room until I found this one.  In fact, when I started my hunt I decided to shop like I had an unlimited budget to spend.  This was a great experiment that I have used again and again.....it helps me define what I really like, and from there I either have to find a similar item or, as in the case of this chair, I find exactly what I want with the right price tag.



The fabric is a beautiful golden tobacco color, and I just love the big floral print.  It has a bit of a lively attitude - a perfect foil to a room that can get a little serious. I think it goes well with the many woodtones in this room - from the desk to the floor.



The drapery panels came from Pier One clearance and they pick up the coral/orange in some of the flowers in the chair fabric. Unfortunately, the picture doesn't truly represent the color of the drapery - but take my word from it - it looks great!



I love the "skirtless" bottom of the chair so this beauty can show off her curvy legs! I especially like this style for smaller rooms because it helps give the illusion of space.



Thank you, One Kings Lane, for the opportunity to 'share my chair!' I truly do love it and it is my favorite chair in our home.  Be sure to check out One Kings Lane for more information on chairs and to shop their amazing sales.  You won't be disappointed - and their inventory is always changing!


 
As always....
thanks for stopping by,
 
Jane

Feeling Cornered

I am such a fan of nooks and crannies in a home. You know, those funky little spots that are sometimes difficult to decorate, but always fun! Living in a newer home, I don't have too many quirky areas, but this little corner of my kitchen is just a sliver of space between the counter and patio door.
This chair was a GW find for $2.00 - I painted it with black, gave it a little distressing and a wax. Too cute! On it, a basket full of pretty towels to wipe off the dirty paws of our buddy Parker.
Adorable galvanized tin sits atop an upside down WalMart utensil holder that I hadn't been using for awhile.
Plate holders with plates and a framed W from Hobby Lobby. I love putting things other than plates in plate holders thanks to inspiration from Liz at Savvy Seasons.


Close up of one of my favorite plates - I am sure it was a Home Goods or TJ Maxx find a few years back. Love the little sitting dog.


 That's it from my little corner of the world!
Wishing you happiness,
Jane
