CRAIGSLIST MONDAY: DINING CHAIRS AND DINING ROOM

Happy Monday!    I can't believe Thanksgiving is around the corner.
Are you hosting this year?  Is your dining room ready?
Here are some dining chairs I found on CL...


via decor pad

dining table with 6 cane chairs - $125
(These are pretty and easy to update - paint and new fabric are all you need!)



drexel set - $600
(I love these Louis XV chairs.  Pretty good deal too considering the set comes with 2 servers and a buffet)






And now for the fun part.  Let's build a dining room out of craigslist finds...





wing back chairs -$155
(They are in pretty good condition but these would look good reupholstered in black and white stripes)

crystal chandelier - $250
(Love!)


curio - $50
(This would look great painted, then a contrasting color for the back and shelves)


oriental rug - $295

If I didn't have any dining room furniture,  I would seriously consider buying them all...

    Great inspiration! I love how you show that chic design doesn't have to cost an arm and a leg. Craigslist is definitely the way to go!

    Very good! I have some white painted shield back chairs in my booth now with teal velvet seats. Love them! Great finds as usual. Love how you used an old rug in your board - did you see my antique rug post today?
