When I used this chair in raspberry in an online design plan for a client’s dining room last year, it seemed like a bold choice. With the exception of my daughter’s room, I haven’t used a lot of pink throughout our own home. However, I’m seeing it pop up more and more on dining chairs and I like the energy it brings to a room:
House Beautiful
Want to give this look a try without spending lots of money? Here are some inexpensive options:
This might be my favorite look. I love the boldness of painting the frame the exact color of the fabric. (I wish I had a clearer picture and a source for you—anyone know?) This would be a great way to make over a set of old dining chairs. Instead of searching for a fabric, you might even want to consider painting the existing fabric, using a method like the one by Kristy I featured here.
And, if you don’t want to invest in upholstered chairs, here are a few options for more casual dining at a great price. . .
Have you infused your dining room (or any other space) with a bold shade of pink?

Love!! I have pink in my family room!
ReplyDeletePerfect timing for this post Emily! I've actually chosen pink as the color to incorporate into my dining room as part of a blog challenge I'm a part of that kicks off tomorrow. I'm excited and nervous about the color at the same time :D
ReplyDeleteEmily I just did a post about pink last Thursday. I am loving it! These are great examples. Hope you are feeling well.
ReplyDeleteI love pink. Check out my kitchen I posted about today where I did pink curtains! Love the inspiration images and the pink chairs you feature!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE that pink is incorporated in these spaces without it looking too frilly or girly. I'm thinking I should make some pink decor investments now while I'm still single! The future hubs can't nix the look if I already own it! ;)
ReplyDeleteI believe it is from Black and Spiro design. The owner has a blog, absolutelybeautifulthings.blogspot.com. Isabella and Max Rooms had a post about how to find the source of images which was the only way I knew how to find this. http://isabellaandmaxrooms.blogspot.com/search/label/Sourcing%20Images
ReplyDeleteI do love the pink chairs, my husband would immediately put the kibosh on them though:(
Loved Ruthie Somers' ice cream parlor inspired breakfast nook. So cheery! And I think she was one of the first to put handles on the chairs. Great post!
ReplyDeletei have a bar space in my living room and the kelly green bar is flanked by white chinoiserie chairs with david hicks la fiorentina magenta/pink pillows. this is very bold, esp for my ultra conservative husband, but i love the unexpected fun and modern vibe it adds to the rest of our house. pink is a mood lifter for sure!
ReplyDeleteI am a huge fan of that. We always seem to have pink flowers and a hot pink dish towel somewhere in the kitchen. Happy Monday.
ReplyDeletelove the options you listed, GO FOR IT! I think they are FABULOUS!

You are right it does bring some good energy to a space. I think for a temporary look or if I was having a party, but not for all the time in my life. I do love all of the above options and I think it adds a touch of whimsy. Happy Monday,

I painted the doors to my 'pool bathroom' dark pink..I think that counts! :) I'm thisclose to painting the dining room pale pink.
ReplyDeleteI'm loving these pink chairs! That little Thonet number...

Beautiful images...I have never used pink or raspberry but am loving the look from these pictures. I think I will buy some pink flowers and fill a vase for the kitchen table. After all, as the Queen of my Castle(only girl in the house) I deserve a little pink here and there!!
ReplyDeleteI'm loving the pink chairs! Would your husband go for it? I don't think mine would. But those pink garden chairs could rock my backyard! Great roundup!
ReplyDeleteThere's just something about that raspberry pink that adds such a happy feel to a room - not too girly or baby-ish, it looks so chic :)
ReplyDeleteLove this shade as an alternative to red. It just seems fresh and lively and is perfect for a dining room!
ReplyDeleteIt is perfect for a dining room. I love all of the examples! I just posted my dining room reveal today, and I kind of wish I had done oink chairs!

I love that raspberry colored chair!! I have never really been into "pink" but love the color of that chair. Now I think I need to go see where I can add that color in our home!! Thanks for the inspiration!!
ReplyDeleteJust added a pink velvet ottoman to my living room, and I'm loving it! I have a house full of boys, so I've got to get my pink where I can :) Love the raspberry pink dining chair.... hmmmm....
ReplyDeleteI love any shade of pink! However I think hubs would appreciate at that I keep it to flowers and accessories! Love the thornet hot pink chair!

I love that first chair-of course I'm really digging anything that's velvet lately. I can see my kids fighting over who sat in which color chair on that multi-colored pic, but I still think it's a fun idea.
ReplyDeleteI wanted to infuse pink in my new office in the form of drapes, but instead went with Robert Allen Kiki Pinata and am not sure so I like what I have lol. It's a very bold print and I'm still getting used to it I guess.
I love the Thonet chair in pink! so fun!
ReplyDeleteJenna
What gorgeous images...loving pink chairs in a dining room. The first image is perfect!!
ReplyDeleteI love pink anywhere...BUT I YOUR dinign room with a pop of orange instead - or a coral - it just seems to go with what is there more to me.
ReplyDeleteLOVE all that youve doe so Im sure either way it will work.
Pink is awesome! I have been thinking about incorporating it into my living room amongst navy, orange and yellow. The chairs above are great! My fave is the Thonet Chair.... Or the upholstered one...
ReplyDeleteWow, I love the pink! Hmm,I might just have a new project on my list.

ReplyDeleteRight now Design Within Reach (dwr.com) has a sale on their perforated steel classic Marais Armchair in hot pink. They are structually and visually beautiful. Orignally $525 now on sale for $157! I'm thinking of getting them for extra seating side chairs in my dining room.
ReplyDeletePersonally I love it but I think my husband would be challenged by that decision :)
