I don't know about you, but even after I make over something in my house, I still feel the need to tweak. It's kind of a never ending project.
After I re-did my dining room/ living area, I liked it, but I felt like it needed more.
So I switched this chair out from the living room.. then of course, you know how one project leads to another... being next to the china cabinet, the wood colors kind of swallowed up each other...
So red it was! I covered it with a grain sac I had bought from this flea market trip
and sewed a little burlap-y pillow... Now I am wondering if I should paint the china cabinet a creamy, beigey kind of color and distress it.. what do you think? Should I?

I also have some new items in my Etsy store...

Yep, def. every room needs a red chair. It's just beautiful. Love the burlap pillow too.
ReplyDeleteOh yes Ma'am every room does need red~ and that Red chair is perfect! Great job!
ReplyDeleteHave you seen those burlap pillows at ballards...very pricey! You did a great job on that pillow and saved lots of money!

You are right the red chair was the answer, although I do love the leopard print chair in the right spot (my living room, haha). As for the buffet I think it should be painted creamy and distress it. I think it will really lighten up that corner. (Not that I am a professional just a wanna-a-be). Plus you do such beautiful work it will look great! Can't wait to see the finished product if you do paint it!
ReplyDeleteThe red chair looks great. The red color really brings out the great detail in it. Good job!! What did you do with your other chair?

Splash of red always looks good. The pillow is very sweet! gosh i don't know about the cabinet, painting it sounds pretty and it's pretty now too... don't think you could go wrong either way.
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see what you decide.

Jen, I think you have a sickness. I can't imagine making a change that makes you want to make another change. jk ;)
ReplyDeleteI LOVE that anywhere pin. I have supplies on my fabric store list to try and make some fun fabric pins. I love how you incorporated tulle into yours!
Love the red chair!

ReplyDeleteLove the red chair with the crisp white seat! I say go for painting and distressing the cabinet...
ReplyDeleteLove the shirts and pin too...very cute on the hat!
I agree! Red in every room is a must! That chair looks wonderful with its new color and cover....

I love the red chair and the happiness tee! I wonder how long until I introduce red again into my main living area,
ReplyDeleteLove it red! I think most rooms could do with something red (but then it's my favorite color)!

The splash of red in a room always adds a touch of class! What a lovely chair!
ReplyDeleteLove the T's! I wish I was cute and skinny again I'd get one, LOL! :)
LOts o cuteness in that post!
ReplyDeleteDo I need the Queen B t or what ????? How adorable !!!
ReplyDeleteThat chair is so much better in red. I would definitely paint the china cabinet cream and distress.
ReplyDeleteI'll be here on the 25th.
Loving the red chair, it looks perfect in that room and uhm, lovin' that super cute t-shirt! I love a good T to wear with my jeans! Happy Sunday~
ReplyDeleteI LOVE the red chair!!! The only room in my house that doesn't have red is my upstairs bathroom. I was just thinking yesterday of painting one of our current dining room chairs (when we're able to get new ones) and keeping it in the living room.
ReplyDeleteOh, it's brilliant!!! I love your red chair...and that happiness t-shirt. So cute!!
ReplyDeleteHi, Jen. I just checked out your blog and you have really cool furniture re-dos! I love damask on anything...
ReplyDeleteI am making fabric brooches, too, but yours are prettier. :( Well, maybe I'll end up buying one from you instead.
I just started on etsy and am trying to get it going. Do you do well on it?
that's a great red too...love the shade. beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI love that chair!! You do fantastic makeovers.. Your blog is fabulous!!
ReplyDeleteok, will you come help me paint an antique side board and chairs I've been wanting to paint a cream color and distress...after you do your china cab.? That is going to be my summer project...so make sure and tell how you did it...
