FARMHOUSE MEETS MODERN: INSPIRATION FOR THE BREAKFAST ROOM

One of the things on our "want" list is a new table/chairs for the breakfast area.  Our current set ("set" being part of the problem) we purchased over ten years ago, and although it is nice and has held up beautifully, it just isn't our style anymore.  I'm thinking farmhouse meets modern, mix and match...I have been scouring the Internet and design magazines for inspiration and here are a few I love:

[LOVE the farmhouse table with upholstered chairs (note the nail head trim!)]
love the simplicity

[The mix of benches with chairs at each end]
via white and gold design

[But also drawn to farmhouse style table with modern chairs!]
kitchen?

[How cute are these scalloped slipcovers with piping!]

Maybe this is why I have had the same table and chairs for over 10 years!  I can't make up my mind! 

Happy Hump Day!

  2. So many options.... My DDD (decision deficit disorder) would kick in too! It's good to know that my Amish made farmhouse dining table is still in! Now I just need to find chairs to go around it!

  3. Oh, Jen, I love your style!! I want a farmhouse kitchen with a modern twist. Industrial meets reclaimed wood. Make sense?? Oh, and with splashes of color because I heart color!

  4. Jen,
    I hope the boys had a great Birthday today! Cards went in the mail yesterday (always seem to be a day behind no matter how hard I try!)

  5. Oh boy do I have the same issue. I am constantly changing and adding (or subtracting) the table and chairs in my breakfast room, because I keep changing my mind on what direction to go. I love the modern chairs with a farm table, especially the ghost chairs, but I also love a bench and/or upholstered chairs, and the mix and match look. Good luck making up your mind!

  6. Those scalloped slipcovers are calling my name! Scallops are just the best. :)
