Bar Stools

I have perfectly good barstools. There are four of them from IKEA. So in the new house, our island seats six. What does that mean!? Do I buy two more of the same white IKEA chairs I already have? Do I buy six new chairs, that are totally different? I haven’t decided what I will do yet. Two of the four white IKEA chairs, that I already have, are very well loved and used. In the meantime of trying to decide what I should do; I have picked out a few of my favorites. Just in case I need to buy all new barstools 😉 .

I am really loving the natural light wood furniture lately. These World Market French Bistro Barstools are just perfect. They still have the “X” back, which will match well with my dining room chairs. My dining room chairs are the same as the white IKEA barstools I have. I don’t want to buy all new dining room chairs too. I will definitely be keeping those six chairs, so the barstools need to coordinate. These would blend well and break up some of the white in the kitchen.

I thought about doing the Natural Linen Paige Backless Barstool from World Market too. Lets be honest, fabric chairs don’t work with my kids. I need something that won’t absorb food and wipes up easily. We mostly sit at the bar and not the dining room table. I don’t know why but we just always congregate there. I have to wipe up and mop the floor under my little one’s chairs after every meal. So I quickly threw this chair out of the options. It sure is beautiful but just not the right fit for our family.

Target always has such cute stuff. I came across a chair similar to the French Bistro barstools from World Market. They are called the French Country X-Back Barstool. A little bit cheaper and still really cute. Again they would still blend well with the dining room chairs. This is important since they will be all together in one open space. They even go on sale occasionally. I really am leaning toward these as a front runner.

This last one is a bit of a wild card for me. It is the Adjustable Round Wood and Metal Stool from World Market. Can you tell I love World Market? I thought that it might be nice to tuck these away under the countertop. they have no backs so they won’t seem busy. They are more industrial than I usually tend to like. Definitely easy to clean with the wood and metal. I don’t really have dark metal anywhere else in the house. A fun option to think about none the less.

I still have some time to think over all the bar stool options. The new house is all sheet rocked! I am beyond excited to see the progress coming along. I will be doing another house updated soon to show you how it is going.
