I had been searching online for a side chair that I liked to put up in the upstairs loft sitting area, still completely empty of any furnishings. Something I like AND didn't break my budget. I think I found something I really will like. It was on Wayfair for $149 and very good reviews. I was about to order, but then saw it said 10-12 weeks. UGH! I don't mind a little wait, but geez. So, I googled the chair name and found it through Walmart.com for $142 and will be here in 10 days!
I have also picked out a loveseat I like, but waiting on getting that until I have the money for it, but figured I might as well get the chair now and at least get started on the room. The loveseat has 104 different fabric/color choices! Then I saw they they will send free fabric samples, so I just ordered 5 of them. Spending $600, I'd like to make sure it's something I like and it's sometimes kind of deceiving looking at colors via the computer. Like the photo above - well, the pictures that buyers shared in the reviews the wood looks quite a bit lighter (which is fine, but again, just a bit deceiving). I had done fabric samples when I picked out my bedroom roman shades and was glad I did that.
I'm also going to find a small coffee table to put in the middle. I'm thinking round. I haven't decided yet on a floor lamp next to this chair or a small table with a lamp.
DH has been busy measuring and drawing out his storage shelf for his shop. I think doing it with wood might be a bit cheaper than the metal racking, too. It's not going to come out from the wall as far as the loft he just built, I think he said 32 inches. Enough to fit the plastic bins he has stuff stored in
these bins (we have a LOT of them)
And the ceiling is tall enough I think he can stack 2 high. Then underneath he is going to build a long workbench, with storage underneath that, too.
Sounds like a busy Saturday ahead, best get to it.
I love the chair, but not the 10 to 12 weeks! That's a long time. In June I finally got my hubby to replace the sun setter awning on our back patio. By time he got around to it, they said they had a backlog...just got confirmation this week. They will be here to install it the first week of October, so I'm sorry but I'd like my summer to last a tiny bit longer this year...
ReplyDeletewe ordered a roll up door for our garden shed. It's going to take like 6 weeks. Good thing we didn't wait any longer - or there will be snow blowing inside it LOL
DeleteIt is a very smart chair and I like it. Easy to clean underside too. Nowadays, since I am doing the cleaning, I started hating all those very low bottom furniture at home.
ReplyDeleteI'm tired of cleaning too, haha.
DeleteI am glad you found something you like. With the chair in the house and samples to choose from, you can more easily get a good look for the room. I have to sit on chairs and sofas to find one that my back likes!
ReplyDeleteI find even if it seems ok in the store, it's not always comfortable for long periods. Like my office chair. Seemed perfectly comfortable at Staples, but sitting all day, it's not much :(
DeleteI had a ridiculously long wait four years ago when we ordered a new sectional couch. It was originally supposed to be four weeks-the only change we had made was picked the pillow pattern, and we eliminated on of the armless sections as our family room is narrow. It didn't make it by the first promised date, the end of September so not in time for my daughters Confirmation party, whihc worked out ok as we could set up more card tables. October came and went, thanksgiving came and went, Christmas came and went until finally came th week after. I think it was 17 weeks!
ReplyDeleteI don't have that much patience to wait for something, LOL.
