Vintage walnut accent chair

This item has been sold BeigeChair
This chair was a Goodwill score, which for me at least, are very few and far between. Most of the (very limited) furniture selections at all of the Goodwill stores in my NC area are junk. Lots of pressed wood, laminate furniture, or upholstered pieces that have seen their better days. But this time I found this great, solid wood accent chair. I can picture it nestled next to a foyer table in an entry way, as a great place to sit and put your shoes on. Or maybe sitting in the corner of your dining room, for when you need a little extra seating.  Then there’s always the old stand by – using it as a desk chair.  I painted the chair a neutral sand color, and then distressed the edges just a bit to give it some dimension.  The fabric is burlap-colored (but soft!), with teal blue design.

This vintage mahogany captain’s chair was updated with Powdered Snow paint, and a sheer silver metallic glaze. The glaze adds just a hint of gray, to tie it in with the gray and white Braemore fabric. It would be perfect in front of your vanity table, your desk, or even sitting in the corner of your dining room.

Mahogany bench

This item has been soldMahogany bench

I found this mahogany bench from a private seller. The good part, it has beautiful lines and curves. The bad part, it smelled as though it had been in a damp basement for a while. And the fabric was VERY dated. So I completely replaced the seat base, and covered it with new foam and a modern, colorful fabric from Waverly.  I painted the wood to match the fabric, with a creamy antique white. Wouldn’t this seat look great in front of a vanity? Or maybe in an entryway? It’s a great place to sit down and put your shoes on.
