Monday at My Home

First of all I need to give big thank yous to some extremely sweet readers and fellow bloggers! I got some of the sweetest emails from Chantale over at Skiny Mini Kiki and Stephanie from Bonita Bellita. They totally lifted my spirits this weekend and they are two of the sweetest people you will meet. I also want to thank Miss K from Love, Lipstick, and Pearls for giving me three awards this past week! I was tickled pink to get them and I love your blog, your such a doll! And for all the people who constantly leave comments and send me sweet little notes, it means the world to me and I look forward to all your wonderful input and love. Thank you so much!

So for this Monday at my home I wanted to show you pictures of all the chairs in my home. I have quite a variety and I know you have seen most of them but just in case you want a closer look, here you go.

BTW I got half off the amoire this weekend and put my money down for it, so hopefully we will get it picked up from the store the beginning of this week! Yay projects!

Luvs!

Spare vintage tufted chair in family room.

Vintage office chair in family room that we got for free.

Holy chairs, Batman!! Lovely.

The IKEA light looks perfect in your entry way! I remember being shocked at how large it was the first time I saw it, those high ceilings highlight it so well! I bet it looks great through that window.

So no shortage of grabbing a seat in yours then! Bit like our house..my husband thinks I have a problem with chairs and stools (maybe I do!!?!)but comes in handy when you have guests over and I think they make a house a home - relaxed living! x

I love chairs, this was a great idea! And you know I wanted to see those black and white ones up close. I'm still working on mine, it's been too hot to be outside sanding, ugh i just want them done!

Will @ Bright.Bazaar said...
