When you need to match...

there's no better chair to do so with, than a Chinese "Chippendale". Okay, I know we've seen these around quite a bit, but I'm just not sick of them yet...and you can't go wrong, they look great in any color. Am I right?

Love the new header and I'm not sick of these either. I'm loving that bright ultramarine blue one especially!

I've always loved them, too. For smaller spaces, I also love placing a bamboo ballroom chair in a room or hallway. They're simple and inexpensive...the bamboo gives a slightly exotic touch to a room with more conventional elements. They're also extraordinarily practical!

You do see them everywhere, but I'm convinced there's a good reason. They are so attractive and versatile!

The chairs are great, but wow- your new banner is so nice. I need to design something for my blog, it seems a little daunting ! Was it hard?

I love that these have made a comeback. They remind me of Babe Paley in that 196O's beach house kind of way.
