sneak peek @ the chairs...

We enjoyed the dusting of snow and chilly weather on the weekend, it was the perfect
 excuse for baking. We indulged in delicious Petite Pumpkin Spice Donuts I found on Pinterest.

I also found time to work on recovering the Craigslist chairs for our dining room...

I chose this bold, neutral...

to coordinate with this fabric for the two upholstered host chairs.

Part of the reason these chairs were so appealing to me was the open style of the back. I plan

 to use pillows on the chairs, and can easily change them out seasonally. The neutral fabrics

 will allow for endless choices, :) bold florals will be a fun mix with both of these patterns.

  I was playing with all the pillows I could find all day a pillow from our sofa to give you an idea.

 And, speaking of chairs, remember my post last week, 'interest for your entry' here,

I showed you how you could give your entry a little pizazz by incorporating a simple
 chair. My friend Patty didn't waste a second moving this chic black and white striped
chair to her entry ~ it's perfect!
 If you'd like to see more of her gorgeous home stop by Patty's Epiphanies here
for a peek at a few of her beautiful rooms. 

I have a rub 'n buff project in the works to show you later this week.
