I love your lighting and the neutral colors. I would say stick with either of the wooden chairs then. We kinda have the same look/style going in our dining room. We did a chevron rug under the table with a wooden bench as well. The benches are great, can pair them with 1-2 of those wooden chairs. I know that there are some online sites where you can order wooden benches to make it look a little more rustic ... paired with some chevron or patterns. I want a pic of the finished product! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-pick-dining-room-chairs#post-896242 Sun, 30 Jun 2013 09:03:05 +0000 lamariniere 896242@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@runnerd: Love the lamp!

It lets you pick a few chairs that you love and not just several of the same style. </p> <p>@Freckles: Love the suggestions, my first impulse was CB2 too!

I can vouch for their unIKEA-like longevity and looks (plus they're really comfy)--I use one as my desk chair! (Although I don't think they carry my color anymore.)</p> <p>Also, the Tolix chair has been around since 1934. If you're into the industrial look, it's iconic. (I know that Target doesn't sell actual Tolix chairs, but you get my point: Buy what you really like, regardless of whether every house on Dwell has the same chairs.) ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-pick-dining-room-chairs#post-896095 Sun, 30 Jun 2013 01:39:34 +0000 Smurfette 896095@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. High Heels: I agree not a fan of the metal.

I think the first option looks too matchy matchy. </p> <p>I really like the 1st chair that @Freckles suggested - I think it looks modern and classy! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-pick-dining-room-chairs#post-896048 Sat, 29 Jun 2013 23:34:49 +0000 T.H.O.U. 896048@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@runnerd: if the all metal are cheap you could always replace later. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-pick-dining-room-chairs#post-896047 Sat, 29 Jun 2013 23:34:38 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 896047@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I like the third chair @Freckles: suggested.

I really didn't want it to be matchy, wanted my own unique set but was having hard time finding something that looked right :) :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-pick-dining-room-chairs#post-896036 Sat, 29 Jun 2013 23:20:46 +0000 Freckles 896036@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Have you thought of something with metal legs but different material? Option1 may be a bit matchy (which is fine if that is your style) and option3 doesn't seem to go well with the table.</p> <p>Maybe something along the lines of these? Again, it is hard to recommend since i dont know your style.</p> <p><a href="http://www.cb2.com/phoenix-ivory-chair/f8249" rel="nofollow">http://www.cb2.com/phoenix-ivory-chair/f8249</a></p> <p><a href="http://www.westelm.com/products/scoop-back-chair-white-h163/?pkey=call-dining-room&#038;cm_src=all-dining-room" rel="nofollow">http://www.westelm.com/products/scoop-back-chair-white-h163/?pkey=call-dining-room&#038;cm_src=all-dining-room</a>||NoFacet-_-NoFacet-_--_-</p> <p><a href="http://www.cb2.com/charlie-chair/s361740" rel="nofollow">http://www.cb2.com/charlie-chair/s361740</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-pick-dining-room-chairs#post-895928 Sat, 29 Jun 2013 21:21:40 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 895928@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@runnerd: That does tilt toward their favor somewhat :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-pick-dining-room-chairs#post-895927 Sat, 29 Jun 2013 21:19:38 +0000 immabeetoo 895927@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@runnerd: Not sure if they're the exact same, but lots of reviews on similar here: <a href="http://www.overstock.com/Home-Garden/Silver-Tabouret-Stacking-Chairs-Set-of-4/5095638/product.html?rcmndsrc=2" rel="nofollow">http://www.overstock.com/Home-Garden/Silver-Tabouret-Stacking-Chairs-Set-of-4/5095638/product.html?rcmndsrc=2</a> if that is helpful! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-pick-dining-room-chairs#post-895923 Sat, 29 Jun 2013 21:16:47 +0000 mlm2934 895923@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@scg00387: i found them on target website </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-pick-dining-room-chairs#post-895917 Sat, 29 Jun 2013 21:10:22 +0000 immabeetoo 895917@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@runnerd: the metal chairs are from overstock, right?? i've been eyeing them!!

I think the metal wood combo still is a great look but a bit more timeless. </p>
