I found these adorable reproduction Hitchcock chairs online when I was searching for chairs suitable for making a small bench. When nestled in next to each other they make the perfect sized bench for an entry foyer, for putting on your shoes in the morning. It’s the perfect sized bench for the foyer that’s not too large.

Rock Maple Captain’s Chairs
This was a major score. A set of 2 captain’s chairs in super heavy rock maple. Overall they’re in great shape. A few scratches and nicks….the downside was really the fabric. The foam beneath the fabric felt hard and crumbly to the touch. And when I finally removed the 2 layers of hideous fabric I discovered that the foam had completely disintegrated and turned to sand. Blech!

Vintage walnut accent chair
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 is a set of 6 antique mahogany chairs with upholstered seats. I’m not going to lie…..these have seen better days. But I’m going to fix these up and breathe some new life back into them and with any luck they’ll be around for another 100+ years!
There’s 1 captain’s chair with arms, and 5 chairs without arms.

Scandinavian Ottoman/Bench
Isn’t this table unbelievable? I’m so in love with it. The awesome details (like the fluted legs), the size….and now it can be used as either an ottoman/coffee table, OR an upholstered bench. Wouldn’t this be great at the end of your bed?! The table was painted white and then antiqued with a gray glaze

Cane back chairs – Set of 4
Old school cane backed chairs. 2 side chairs and 2 arm chairs. This retro set goes with the Oval Dining Table.
I ended up painting & staining these chairs to match a cherry dining table that a customer of mine brought to me to refinish. We chose a creamy white paint for the skirt and legs on the table and used the same paint on the caning in the chairs. The remainder of the chairs, as well as the top of the table received a rich, Kona brown stain. The seats were reupholstered in a taupe & cream ikat print.
