Side note, DIY dining chairs

So this is slightly off wedding topic, although not really having to do with our "nest". The soon-to-be and I were out hunting at this amazing store called Treasure Mart. It's a salvation store but only with furniture and decor. Imagine 3 stories of rummage and bargain bliss.

On the look out for dining chairs, we came across an entire set... for only $150! It's the danish style I'm in love with. It just needed a little spiffing up with upholstering the chair seats.


And VOILA!


Our new nesting grounds for meal time.
Can't wait to have a dinner party!

After







Isn't that great?! Easily can seat 6-8 with the leaf out (also one extra chair now sitting in our living room). I'll have to take a picture in the daylight tomorrow of the great leather chair and retro lamp we also found.

We had a couple other great finds for the wedding. Some candle holders and an awesome serving tray.

I love a good bargain shop!
