My Chair Fetish

Yesterday, I had fun wandering around one of the largest Antique Markets in the country - Scott's Antique Market right here in Atlanta. Usually I'm so focused on my client sourcing list that I don't take photos but this time I was there with a short agenda so I was able to take some photos to share.I realized after I looked back at the photos I took that there was a very obvious trend - I clearly have a chair fetish!!These chairs repurposed by our talented friend Kemp Hickey of Kemp Designs, were my favorite. Covered in a soft, gorgeous calf hide, they were YUMMY!

I'm a sucker for gracious curvy lines mixed with little bit of rustic burlap....

If these were mine, I'd paint them in all different vibrant colors and cover the seats in white vinyl for a sherbet filled party!

How great would these look in a glamorous living room? I might have to change out that pillow though -  hot pink hide?

Let's jump back to the 70's - these were in stellar shape. I'm in love.

Now if you were a small child living in England in the late 1800's, you could hang out in this sopisticated little chair. Then when it was time to dine, your governess would lift up the chair and screw it into this little table so you could reach the table......

This stool was not only adjustable but super comfortable.

Kemp got these from a camp ground in Indiana. They would look SO GOOD on the porch of my parents boathouse!

I also have a thing for sweet little chairs. I guess because you can stick them anywhere in a room as a conversation piece or to simply welcome a small visitor.

I'm on the hunt for something interesting for my foyer. This one caught my eye. I would definitely replace the cushion with some brightly colored, geometric pattern to add a contemporary flair to this stately beauty.

I love this delicate Hepplewhite beauty. A new fabric and it could be quite a show stopper.

This Italian cutie would have come home with me if I had a place for it. The handle at the top did it for me. Hmm.... what to recover the seat in??

It's a fun fetish isn't it?
