My Newest Obsession: Woven Dining Chairs

I apologize for not posting for over a month but right before Christmas my father was having major health complications and had to go into the hospital for pneumonia.  He is doing better now that he is over the pneumonia but still in the hospital so the past month has been really hectic with going back and forth to the hospital with a little toddler in tow so it hasn't left much time for blogging!  I hope to do some projects soon and maybe even a couple of tutorials of my own:)  For now I just wanted to share what has been a new decor obsession for me and has me dreaming of decorating our don't have yet but will hopefully in the near future house we've been dreaming about for a while now!  A few months ago was when my obsession with woven dining chairs began, after seeing this in the Pottery Barn catalog

I just love that the chairs look relaxed and formal at the same time!  So began my search for other woven chairs and ideas to creat the same look...

I came upon this photo and became even more inspired

from the blog http://www.paintingtheroseswhite.com/.  I loved her mix of the woven chairs and the white slipcovered chairs!  Love how beachy and airy yet still formal her dining room is.

Below is the Kaya chair from World Market which was given 5 out of 5 stars on the site

Here it is in GiGi's dining room from the World Market site

In World market user Azn's dining space done in bold colors!


And finally in World Market user Mel's dining room for a contemporary look



I am really in love with these chairs and trying to convince my husband that these would be great in our future home but he doesn't love them quite as much as I do...

Here are a couple more

From Pier 1, unfortunately these are not in the store at this time, I'm hoping they will bring them back because I love them and would love to see how they look in person

The Hyacinth Chair From Z Gallerie


And finally from Ikea, the Majby Chair

And seen here in their 2010 catalog
