The banquette has taken a lot out of me. It was way harder than I anticipated. Maybe it's because I'm a bit of a perfectionist; but those damned tufts! Ugh, why can't they be completely even and look like the tufted chairs in stores?
So I'm taking a mini break until I muster up enough energy to complete it.
In the meantime, look what I found.
And at an unbelievable price of $5 for both. Yes, you read that right, $2.50 a piece! Yes, they're gross and the kids refuse to sit in them ever, even after I recover them. But ooh the possibilities.
Let's have a look, shall we?
Graphic or floral?
Way too busy I think.
Narrowing it down.
Love all of these Caitlin Wilson prints.
Which one do you think I'm going to go for?
This is definitely a contender. It's outdoor fabric so great for repelling stains; it's pink, which I love; and the pattern is not too bold that it overwhelms the chair.
But there's something about this next one that just speaks to me.
Yes, I know, bloody chevron again! I know most of you are probably sick of chevron, but this is slightly more chic wouldn't you agree?
But then again I'm also leaning towards no pattern.
But instead a lovely soft velvet. Decisions, decisions. I hope I don't ponder too long over this one. What would you choose?
Those are amazing. So many possibilities, but I think I like the first one best (the outdoor fabric). Can't wait to see what you do!

Angela, my husband also likes the outdoor fabric the best. I still haven't made up my mind as it changes every minute!
DeleteHa, ha—you actually went to the DI! I can spot those tags a mile away. I'd go with the outdoor fabric, too, but you know how I feel about chevrons. ;)
ReplyDeleteJenne you know I can always count on you for an honest opinion ;)
DeleteOh wow, what a steal! I think they are all rather pretty but if it were me, I'd go for a sophisticated velvet but in an unexpected colour l like that juicy melon colour of the chevron fabric - lush! xxx
ReplyDeleteYes, sometimes less is more. The simplicity of the brass frame calls for something understated.
DeleteI love the idea of different fabric on the front and back. :-)
