    Gotta say, I might have chosen a solid color for the seat cushions, maybe a color close to the table legs. However, you have a great eye for what you like in your own space, you weren’t selling the chairs so it’s whatever YOU like best. Super easy to switch out if you ever want a new look, too. Love the whole set!

    The rug is so pretty - personally I would’ve opted for a plain colour that compliments the rug. Anything with a design ‘fights’ the carpet …. Just my opinion 🌸
    Love your channel ❤

    I love the Aztec print, love the colours, and it looks very trendy. Just not with the rug. The colours might match well, but the prints are too different. I think that’s what’s making it not 100% cohesive, in my opinion. 🥰
    I admire all the hard work that went into it. Well done. 👏🏻

    I like the floral pattern better than the Aztec design but would choose a solid color, either the blue of the table legs or yellow to match the tv stand, I just felt the patterns clashed with the rug even though they had similar colors. But I do like the chairs! Great find!

    Truthfully, I personally think the aztec fabric clashes terribly with your dining rug. The new fabric you bought is very beautiful and a so much better fit with the the rug and the whole room! I mean, since you asked 😁

      I think the aztec material looks really nice with your table. Personally that's the fabric I would choose. I love the blue on the table legs. It looks so nice.

    My vote is the fabric from Joann's. I like the floral print a lot. If it was my dining set, I'd want the cushions refreshed as well as the wood. You just don't know what the old fabric may be harboring in the way of stains and germs.

  • @AR-gh1pc
    @AR-gh1pc Год назад +21

    I really like the original fabric! I think it looks great. However, I think I might not use the patterned rug under the dining room table. I might just not use a rug or something simple like a natural fiber without a pattern so the chairs can pop. I know… you didn’t ask about the rug. But I think I’d work around the chair fabric. It looks vintage mid century to me. :)

    The floral looks a lot more high-end, the Aztec seems like an outdoor design and has a cheaper look to it.

      The floral you chose from Joanns is way prettier. The “Aztec” pattern is outdated, faded looking and competes with your rug instead of complimenting it.

    I do enjoy watching your videos and your willingness to make due with what you have on hand. The chairs are beautiful and simple lines. However, I will say this the rug is full of nice colors. Even the fabric you purchased was busy for the rug. Who am I to say, whatever you're comfortable with is all that is important. You guys are doing awesome on your journey. Busy is Busy and too much busy does not always compliment one another. Same colors well, don't always work if it is too busy. I am with you on the note, they were able to be cleaned and will last for a while. Who is sittling on them? You so who else cares. A multilcolored rug, a solid color cushion. simple. Not busy.. I love the chairs and you got a great deal on them... Mid Century Modern is so popular now. What I know about asking opinions, every one has one. If you like it and are satisfied with it, who cares what someone else thinks. You are the one living with it. : ))

    I like mixing fabrics and if you like good it looks, go for it! I think i may have just recovered for it to be new, like a mental thing. If choosing from scratch, im thinking something darker just to hide spills and general use. Feel like something darker may go with the richness of the wood tones you have so beautifully done.
    But again, if you like it, that's wonderful! Fabric chairs will need to be recovered again in their lifetime and you will have opportunities to experiment. What a great find and great work as always. Love your style

    Hi, I like the chairs. I got some similar ones about 20 years ago and still use them. I had to strip them down and redo them like you did but these are great chairs. I have recovered mine a few times and what works the best is fabric that can be wiped off. Even if you are careful you will spill food on them. I use textured vinyl in a neutral pattern or something in that family. This is not expensive and recovering the chairs takes less than one hour or so.
