I have a pair of those chairs I love the linen look I was afraid to do thought it might look bland but that will give me the casual look I want?

I love linen but if concerned about it looking bland, go with very subdued color (to keep it feeling timeless). You can also use a lovely rolled pillow to give it some pop.

I love that color I guess I will search for swatches next thank you

Do you know the name of that fabric?trying to find something affordable Love What you suggested

Not sure why the existing fabric would not be considered classic.

I think fabric recommendations depend on the current colors of the room in which you plan to place the chair.

Mood Fabrics has some really nice choices and I found a color similar to the chair above and it is suitable for upholstery - it's 100% poly, but looks like linen, But there are lots of other choices in linen. http://www.moodfabrics.com/spa-metallic-silver-solid-linen-lame-hp21897.html

I kind of like it the way it is.

if you saw them in person they were not upholstered well and decided I wanted a different fabric after looking at them or a darker animal print might be better

Tamra, would you be able to post a photo of the area you think it will go in?

Probably not, and ask an expert, but does this chair lend itself to a design on the bottom seat, and solid on the remainder? Seems a delicate color and pattern both??

Or this seems pretty:

take velvet and fringe. The color depends on your interior, but if you have 2 chairs, they also might be done in different colors. The fringe can be in the same color, or in contrast, or two colored.

several examples

And in different colors...

love the fringe idea when they were my great Aunts they had fringe wish I could figure out what would work still looking for swatches I dont know if fringe would be casual classic and beachy

do you think I could do a pale linen look fabric with some sort of fringe?

Ok, I am reupholstering some chairs that I scored for free (YAY!!!) and fell in love with this fabric. I like having a print...it shows confidence!

The name of this site is spoonflower, they everything from the lowest grade cotton to silk, which is rare these days, all is hand created, if you want you can do your own! Sell it and reduce the cost of your own! But this is what I thought of:

this for the pleated fringe

this for the top part of the chair
These are examples, and will make your chair totally unique, as such, it never really goes out of style. Please do not pay attention to colors, if you do not like, because I am not a pink lover, but the concept almost makes me want this.

Sear Tamra, I don't think that linen is a good idea for such form of chairs. Linen is not so plastic and may be difficult to go on the round back of the chair.

All cotton and color of Maureen's? that you liked?

Just wanted the linen texture look I think and I dont have a room yet moving and plan on keeping everything light and airy natural textures casual ill be needing paint advice as well I like the blue gray

I have never done such a complicated chair, perhaps you will need more than one type of fabric?

Yes just want to get them done no luck on choosing yet
