We have our first ever poll today and I really want your opinion. Ever since I redid the breakfast nook, the dining chairs around the breakfast table have been troubling me. I snagged all 6 of them (we usually use only 4 unless we have guests) for an awesome deal on Craigslist. To top it off they are in excellent condition, made of real wood and very heavy.
The plan was to paint the back rests and legs the same color as the table base (Annie Sloan chalk paint in Old White) leaving the seat in the original stain. Now with the new rug, the plate wall, and the red bamboo table I’m not so sure.
Oh, one more thing…..we finally found out pendant! So that light is eventually gonna be switched out to this!
This Urban Outfitters Triple Tiered pendant was one of the very first things that I had ever pinned. Wonder what took me so long to go back to it! I think the gold/ brass like finish will go with the antique gold finish on the mirror. The tiered shape is also very similar to the capiz pendants hanging above the island.
So what do you say?
Your nook has been Nicely transformed. I like the chairs as is.
How about red to match with dishes and table?
After i casted my vote, I realize the answer you are looking may not come out so easy 🙂 Its a close fight 😉
Good luck with whatever you eventually try and wish that will satisfy your heart 🙂
Try photoshopping different options
1. Paint legs only
2. Paint legs and back rest
3. Paint back rest only
4. Pain back rest on the back side only or on the front side only.
You get the drill? Then post about which one looks best, you might get clear answers then I guess.
That is an awesome idea Aroohi, will try that soon.

I love the color combination of the whole nook; the walls, plates, red bamboo table etc; I suggest getting complementing cushions for your chair; that way if you don’t like the look you can always change it!
cheers,

Great idea Ammu. Will try that too.
