I've never really liked this little chair in my family room. It IS the perfect size for that spot in the family room and it IS the perfect shape...and it IS very comfortable... but for this Goldilocks.. it was NOT just right!
It was a little ... off! I think it was the color and pattern. It did not enhance the decor of my room.
I was considering selling it or slipcovering... until I relocated it to it's new home...
Here is where this little chair used to live... a little too "oatmeal".
And here is the little chair in it's new home...
It fit right into the J&J guest room I have been making over. Because the room is now a guest room I wanted to keep it very tailored and free from extra furnishings and clutter.
I think guest appreciate a soothing room they can move around in.
This chair was just the right size to tuck into the far corner of the room.
Draping a throw over the chair gives this whole neutral room a little splash of color!
A big basket sits next to the chair for pillows.
Is switcheroo a design term...
Well, I think it should be!
It's a lovely chair, Yvonne, and I'm glad you found a new home for it! I would love to get a small scale upholstered chair for our guest bedroom. I have a perfect corner for one, too.
ReplyDeleteCute chair!
ReplyDeleteit looks good there yvonne...i might have to add a little chair to my guest room i'm re-doing..thanks for the inspiration!
ReplyDeleteLovely and perfect for that spot! Love the writing on it!
ReplyDeleteYvonne, everything you do looks wonderful. You have a creative eye and talented hands. The chair looks wonderful in the guest room. Have a great weekend. Blessings...Mary
ReplyDeleteHmmm...I think that was the chair I sat in when I visited with you. It looked good in the family room and it looks fab in your new redo.

You are right... come visit again!
DeleteIt's perfect! have a wonderful weekend Yvonne.
ReplyDeleteYou found the perfect spot for that little chair!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely chair. I'm glad you found the perfect spot for it and the little touch of color is just what it needed. I love to switch up my furniture also. Hubby... not so much. It drives him bonkers when I rearrange because I'm not so sure about placement.
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful weekend.
Sweet chair -- looks like its found its home!

I agree that it is perfect in it's new home! I am always carting chairs up and down he stairs, to and fro. Poor hubby! The bonus of moving the chair? You get to find a new one for the family room!
ReplyDeleteYvonne, the chair looks great in the guest room! The pillow and the throw are so inviting!
ReplyDeleteThat's a perfect spot for it. However, if you decide you MUST get rid of it, I'd be happy to adopt it for you. :)

Switch-r-roo...is defiantly a design term here, switching into this guest room from the living room makes a world of difference....remember when the actor Billy Crystal said,"YOU LOOK MARVELOUS,DARLING",well this looks marvelous here and is perfect.
ReplyDeleteLove the pop of color and your beautiful hardwood floors too!!
It looks fabulous in the bedroom. I love it. Your rooms are all so beautiful. Hugs marty
ReplyDeleteThe chair looks perfect in it's new home. I love the little splash of color to bring out the same color in the comforter. Now, you have to show us what you replaced that chair with in your family room!!
ReplyDeleteThe chair looks like it has found the perfect corner to show its beauty to your guests. It is good that you were able to do the switcharoo instead of getting rid of that pretty chair. Have a great weekend, Yvonne!! --------- Shannon
ReplyDeleteI love this pretty chair Yvonne and now it is in the perfect spot!!

The chair looks beautiful in it's new location. I love when I get the nerve to move furniture around. It feels like brand new furniture. I love your technical term of switcheroo.
ReplyDeleteIt just perfect! love that pink splash!
ReplyDeletePretty chair Yvonne and it looks great in it's new spot! Have a super weekend!
ReplyDeleteIt looks wonderful Yvonne, just needed a little inspiration to make it shine. I love your splash of color too.
ReplyDeleteIt's a lovely chair Yvonne! I liked it in it's original spot but it also works perfectly in it's new one.
ReplyDeleteYou found a perfect spot for your little chair! It looks great there.
ReplyDeleteIt does look more at home in the bedroom.
ReplyDeleteThe chair looks perfect in your guest room, Yvonne! I'm glad you kept it! :)
ReplyDeleteXO,

Yvonne, it now fits in its perfect little spot. Looks great!
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful weekend.
Hi Yvonne! I'm a new follower. I joined your blog a few days ago. Unfortunately I do not have a blog. If I did, it would be a dollhouse blog. I love your blog. There is so much variety here. Your followers are all so very talented! The recipes are amazing although I have not yet tried one. But I will one of these days. Your chair looks just right where you have placed it. It's a gorgeous room as is the rest of your lovely house. I love your kitchen. It's like a dream!
ReplyDeleteHi Yvonne,
ReplyDeleteSometimes it is so difficult to find just the right chair for a guest room since they are usually a smaller size than other rooms. And this chair is so perfect! I'm sure you could have found many places in your home for it, but it is so pretty right there.
I saw some fabulous Fall decorating by you on my way in, so I'm going to go explore some more. :) Happy Weekend~
Perfection! Have a great weekend........Sarah
ReplyDeletePerfect spot I think!! :-)
ReplyDeleteCheers, Gee
I think a small comfy chair like this is needed in a guest room. It looks very inviting in your pretty room. Linda
ReplyDeleteI think your chair looks perfect in the guest room. Can't wait to see what you'll do in the family room! ;)
ReplyDeleteEven just adding that brightly colored throw and that neutral toss pillow made a huge difference in the "oatmeal" feel of the chair! Putting it in the new guest room provides it with a comfy new home in which it...and YOU...will feel much better! :-) I am still just jealous to the core of your beautiful hardwood floors in the bedroom!!! I just can't get my husband to understand that is the way to go!
ReplyDeletePerfect! The throw makes it all really pop and the pillow looks great too. I think this room would work for me. :)
