My Tolix Chairs Do Over
Helllooo Lovers,
Welcome to my first blog post. I am new to this whole blogging thing so hopefully I won't screw it up! Please bear with me. If you are anything like me, I am always "working" on a project in my home. Whether it be, painting furniture or moving furniture etcc..so I thought I would start my new blog off with my latest project...My Tolix Chairs for my Kitchen.
As you will learn about me, I am a very white and beige type person. Nearly everything in my home is white or beige--including walls. In my Family Room, for instance, I have a beige linen slipcovered Mitchell Gold Couch and 2 Mitchell Gold white denim slipcovered chairs. My lamps are beige, my bedroom has a white chaise in it to go along with my white bed! All the walls in my home are off-white. I think you get the picture.
Anyway, back to my Tolix chairs. When I ordered them, the girl told me about a new color they just introduced "Tiffany Blue". Oh My, I thought. Tiffany Blue! I have to have them. --they would add just the right amount of color to my home. I have an open floor plan, so my Kitchen is open to my Family Room. I thought these would be a perfect addition to my French 1800's farmhouse table...and they were...for a little while.
Until I got sick of the color, like I always do. And that brings me to my current project. I stripped all the Tiffany Blue off them to reveal the steel underneath...and ..drumroll...I love them!!!!! I love a little industrial look mixed with the farm, cottage style look, how 'bout you? Are you a fan of Tolix chairs? Do you like an industrial look too? Let me know your thoughts..
Thanks for letting me share,
