Hi there friends...
While out antiquing a few weeks ago I came across a pair of these pretty cane back chairs.
I LOVE any chairs that have either cane or rush on them...and when the owner of the shop said he would give them both to me for $50 I said SOLD!
~~~
Of course they got a makeover...
Here's the before...they were in great condition but when I bought them I knew I was going to use them in my kitchen as the head chairs so I painted them AS Versailles to match the other chairs in there.
Cute fabric...I just didn't like the way it went in my kitchen.
I always love seeing a before and after side by side...
I'm having a new valance made for the window over my kitchen sink and this tiny check fabric is one of the fabrics that will be used...so I tried a piece out on the chair cushions.
Once I'm done making the changes in my kitchen and family room...I'll show you how the chairs look in there.
~~~
I love having head chairs that don't match the rest...how about you?

I love those chairs, Martina. I really like the makeover..and that monkey print is hysterical!
Is that a Waverly print on your chairs (has a coordinating floral?) Love the mini-check and it looks like I used in our cottage. xo Diana

Those chairs are great! What a bargain!

Great find on those chairs. I love them and love the new finish and fabric. Can't wait to see more.
Good buy!! I have the armed version of these as my end chairs. Yes, like you, I luv my end chairs to match ,but be different from the rest.
You did a great job on the chairs. Love what you did. Anxious to see the room finished.

I love them Martina and the fabric is adorable! I can't wait to see the kitchen valance!
Wow! What an amazing deal! They are beautiful! Especially now that you've painted them!
So much prettier now!

Your chairs are beautiful. Love the new fabric!
oh Martina it's always so fun to see your before and after photos. These chairs are gorgeous, I love the cane backs and the Frenchie legs. And I'm a fan of mixing up chairs at a table. I like seeing different ones at the ends.. I think it looks more interesting. I'm looking for two right now.
Thank you btw for your comment on my office. You're always a ray of sunshine in my blog world :)
hugs,
Leslie
they are gorgeous!! what a great makeover with that wonderful teensy check!
Those are beautiful chairs! I like how you changed them to match your kitchen better. Looking forward to the big reveal!
Great find Martina...the chairs look beautiful..and looking forward to the kitchen valances...
You did a beautiful job on the chairs.
I also love the look of non matching head chairs.

Oh, I'm with you on the head chairs not matching the others. You got a great deal. The chairs look like great quality and I love how you transformed them. I love your style, Martina. xxx ~ Nancy
Great find! Love what you did with them, Martina...Christine
Martina, these chairs were a steal. Get find!
Love their new look. I agree the original fabric is cute. I'd use it to make some pillows. I'm a fan of monkeys.
Lovely!
You did a great job!
What great chairs, Martina! They are great! xo
What a great bargain! You made them look completely different- love them. You are so good at painting and accenting furniture. The red check is so cute for a kitchen area!
Oh I can't wait to go antiquing this spring.
OOO I love those chairs!
Awesome chairs Martina and a fabulous makeover~
Love your new chairs! They look like the ones I had in my DR before I got new ones. The little red check really makes the look along with the paint -- perfect for a kitchen.
I hope you can still see my blog. The invitation from Google may have landed in your junk mail.
Hi Martina! Oh, the chairs are so pretty and I love their makeover. The color is so pretty and can't wait to see your kitchen.
Be a sweetie,

These are great chairs. I love Cain back chairs too. I enjoy having different chairs at the ends of the table. I have it in my dining room.
Great color. Looking forward to seeing the rest
