It's taking all of my self-control (of which there is not much) to not buy furniture for our new place yet until we sign a lease. I really want a HUGE farm house style table and tons of chairs. I want a place to spread out our craft projects and to put down groceries. A place to do homework (I will have a kindergartner next year! tear...) and somewhere to lay out fabric samples and floor plans. We love to have friends and family over for dinner, and I want a chair for everyone!
For a long time, I've been dreaming of this Parsons-meets-farm-house oak table from the Lorimer Workshop in RI. I LOVE IT.
But over the weekend, I was doing some furniture shopping for a client and I stumbled across this 8-foot long table for $300. I don't have a photo of the legs, but they were really cool - chunky and turned on a three-inch apron frame.
I decided to wait on the table (at least a little longer). But I did pick up this pair of bentwood chairs for $2 each.
Someone did a horrible glaze job on these and the seats are covered in grime. But they'll sparkle when I'm finished with them.
I think it would be cool to have an assortment of chair styles, but all with the same paint and fabric treatment, surrounding my huge table.
Though, there's nothing wrong with a full set of bentwoods...
