Choosing a Look for a Quick Chair Overhaul

As I mentioned earlier this week, the sitting area in our kitchen needs some serious help.  One quick and pretty easy way to perk up this room will be to update this old chair I have never gotten around to recovering.  I'm also thinking of painting the frame to give it some contrast, since the current color is somewhere between cream and beige-- but not in a nice way.  


There are so many fun combinations!  I'm thinking of either black or off-white for the frame, and something contrasting for the fabric.


Here are some fun ideas from Ballard Designs.




Jenny on LGN painted her bergere chair frames white.


And I love, love love the color of her stool here, Behr's Kiwi Squeeze.  I'm thinking it would look pretty amazing paired with a black and white bold print-- either a zebra or a chevron.

Stay tuned for a transformation!  


And I haven't decided which look to choose yet, so I'd welcome your ideas:)
