Loving Yellow Chairs

I must be thinking spring

or rather longing for it as there is still snow on the ground

and it was 25 degrees this morning

Anyway I have been loving the color yellow

so much, that I believe my new dining room

will have a yellow theme

So to get started on my new inspiration I picked up these

They were $30 for both

a bit more than I wanted to spend

but I love their curvy lines

and pretty details

I told my hubby I was going to paint them yellow

and he just gave me the look

The "what in the world is she thinking" look

I told some coworkers I was gong to paint them yellow

and I'm pretty sure I got the same look

I told Lilly I was going to paint them yellow

and she loved the idea

Good to know my 3 year old and I share

the same decorative style :).

I usually don't go for bold colors

I see them everywhere and think they look wonderful

but when it comes to actually taking the plunge

and doing it on my own renovations

I usually chicken out

But not this time

this time I went for it

even though after the first coat of bright sun yellow

I thought I might blind myself

but after a little distressing

the yellow was calmed down

and now it just looks warm and inviting and yummy

I thought about keeping the original fabric on the seats

until I remembered I still had some fabric

left over from Nolee's chair

So now they look like this

and I love them

and so does the hubby!

Just look at those pretty curves

Lilly's eyes about bugged out of her head this morning when she saw them

She told me she loves them and they are her new favorites.
