[dining chair reconnaissance]

Dan's friend bought his first home.

He was over the other night and asked if I would accompany him furniture shopping.

What girl would say no to that!

With a little time on my hands the other day I began investigating looks for his dining space - because I'm pretty sure most men really care about what their dining space looks like.

My first thought - An industrial style with Tolix chairs paired with a lovely wooden dining table to add a little warmth.

They come in so many delicious colours too!

Or there's the more organic look of the mid-century classic Wishbone chair.

(Side-note: enjoying the wall collage)

And finally the Eames Shell chair.

I gather he's unlikely to select an array of colours but isn't it a gorgeously unique setting!

This shopping for others could get dangerous.

I'm looking at our own dining space and dreaming of a facelift.

I'm sure Dan wouldn't notice if a few lovely duck-egg blue powder-coated tolix chairs were to magically replace of our white wooden cross-backs!
