Comments (13)Don't write off fabric just yet. You could use microsuede, Crypton, or any of the newer indoor/outdoor fabrics available now. My DD chucked a whole bowl of tomato soup on one of my pale blue microsuede chairs and I swear it cleaned up perfectly. I think softer lines, and fabric, would bring some balance to the angularity of your room. I love the artwork and might think about pulling some color from the painting next to the stairs into said fabric. I know and love your kitchen from the KB. Nice to see you over here. looking forward to seeing more! :-)...See MoreHave you ever seen the MacKenzie-Childs house?
Comments (37)The Mackenzie-Childs brand isn't "out of business" per se-- the bankruptcy was a dozen years ago, but their wares have never gone off the market. Their line was bought by a firm that had the wherewithal to handle the production and marketing. There are a number of stores, a lovely catalog and website, and department stores like Nieman Marcus and Saks Fifth Avenue carry the line. The business moved to Aurora long before the designers' farm was sold. (Article about sale: http://auburnpub.com/news/local/updated-buyers-of-mackenzie-childs-property-just-like-other-folks/article_2493296a-70a0-11e3-9080-0019bb2963f4.html) Just because it's a mug doesn't mean that it's meant for coffee. Their enamelware is similar in styling to mid-20th Century enamelware, with the capping rims and all. Graniteware mugs get hot too. It's metal! It's not insulated. It's to be expected that hot liquids will make the mug hot and then cool off fast. OTOH, for glampling and picnics, if you don't want to deal with plastic or glass, what better? Try them for cider, or lemonade cooled in a mountain spring....See MoreDining room chair suggestions please
Comments (10)You can go so many ways with that table.. and by so many, I mean sooooo many... ;) Any of the better stores in your area should allow you to purchase chairs on approval, meaning you can try out a number of chairs at home and return the ones you don't like. You may need to secure the arrangement with a deposit, but it could be worth it to see what works the best with the table and your style. Any better stores should do that for you, and you can work with their in-house designer. You can go any number of ways with that table... industrial, rustic, transitional, modern... You have a lot of flexibility with that piece....See MorePlease suggest a dining chair for this table
