I was driving my son to school and went the other way around the block because on my earlier train run, thought I spied a goodie- I did...The chair back had me at cane...This chair was out by the curb and the garbage truck was dangerously close to gobbling it up. ( I wish people would put their excellent trash out for appraisal earlier.) My son jumped out and popped it in the back of the Jeep and off we went.
Now, I know I took before pics, but can't find them.- It looked similar to this as far as color and seat color-gold velvet, well worn.
So as as quickie I present cane back beauty painted black and seat covered
to match this desk!
$25 Craigslist
which now looks like this!!!! I will shabby them up a bit, but right now I like the simple black...

ReplyDeleteI love caned furniture and toile, so you combined two of my favorites. Great piece!
ReplyDeleteWowsers! The desk and chair are beautiful! I especially like the blue toile fabric with the black chair. I'm glad I saw that because I've been contemplating painting the vanity cabinet in one of my bathrooms black. The shower curtain in there is a blue toile and I just couldn't visualize if the blue shower curtain would look okay with with black, or whether I should just leave the vanity white. Now I know!! Thanks! :)
