Wishing for: Wishbone Chairs

I would adore new dining chairs - you may remember the ones I found on Craigslist last year - GREAT deal, and I put a TON of work into them to make them look the way they do today...but I'm itching for a change (this seems to be a theme in my life lately - at least when it comes to my home). 

I have looked at a few options, but am really loving wishbone (or 'Y') chairs. I know the 'real deal' costs upwards of $1,000/chair, but high-quality reproductions are available for around $200/chair - a much better deal, if you ask me! I'm not one to splurge on something like this - I'd rather save the splurge for something that adds a little more punch - like a rug. 

I'm hoping to make this purchase soon...but that means I'll have to sell my current chairs first. Here are some photos that are inspiring me. 













What do you think of the wishbone chair?

    1. I loooove o.co, but they don't have the natural color right now! :( I found a seller on Ebay for $180/chair...not bad! xo

  2. I think they are super cute!
    What do you do with your furniture or other things that you've grown to just not like anymore? I have so many things like furniture, lamps, etc that I purchased years ago and I want to change. Its so annoying! I guess tastes just change and that's it? My husband gets so mad at me! I've tried CL, but have not had that much luck suprisingly, because my stuff is nice!!! Its so frustrating!

    1. I sell on Craigslist - sometimes you have to be patient, or drop your price - whichever comes easier to you ;). I don't always get what I want for things, but if I want to sell them (or buy new items) I figure some cash is better than none!
