When it comes to creating a coastal ambiance in your dining room, the right furniture can make all the difference. That's why I recently embarked on a little makeover journey in my own dining space, with the help of Serena & Lily. Their stunning Carson dining chairs caught my eye, with their intricate woven detailing that perfectly complements a coastal or lake house setting. I opted for the black chair option, which inspired a complete transformation of my dining room.
Coastal Dining Room Chairs
A few years ago, when I first ordered my dining chairs, I had envisioned a gray color. However, what I received was more of an off-white shade, hardly the gray I had hoped for. Take a look at the "before" picture below:
While the lack of contrast with our white walls was a bit disappointing, I was content to have functional chairs after the entire building process. I always had the plan to paint them later on, and a few weeks ago, I finally did just that.
Before I proceed, let me share a funny incident related to my old slipcovered parsons chairs. My 10-year-old son, in his attempt to channel his inner superhero, had leaped off of them, resulting in skinned knees and broken chair springs. Ever since that incident, I had been warning everyone not to sit on them, but I still managed to forget from time to time and almost fall through to the floor.
Realizing the need for a better solution, I was thrilled to partner with Serena & Lily once again. Not only do I get to showcase their exquisite Carson Chairs, but I also get to share their new shopping option. Considering the challenges of lead times and shipping delays over the past year, they now offer a filtering system for a more convenient shopping experience. You can select items that will arrive within 1-2 weeks or even qualify for 2-day shipping.
With the holiday season approaching, this new option is a lifesaver for last-minute shoppers like me. Serena & Lily has always been my go-to destination for finding special pillows and decor items that truly make a statement in our home. And let me tell you, these new chairs are no exception. The intricate details are even more stunning in person.
To complete the transformation, I also added these beautiful Poetto Vases as a centerpiece for the table. I love how the white color blocking at the bottom conceals the faux stems, making it a versatile choice for both real flowers and artificial arrangements. Unfortunately, hydrangea season is over here in Michigan, but these vases still bring a touch of coastal charm to any space.
If you're interested in chairs similar to my new black ones, you'll be pleased to know that Serena & Lily offers an almost identical option, already painted in black. I'll provide the links below, along with some of my other Serena & Lily favorites.
This transformation has truly revitalized the ambiance of my dining room. It's amazing how such a simple change, like painting the chairs black, can have such a profound impact. The addition of black accents, which align with the lighting, picture frames, and hardware throughout our home, creates a seamless flow.
In conclusion, if you're looking to refresh your dining space, consider the power of black chairs. They can effortlessly elevate the style and create a cohesive look in your home. Embrace the elegance of black, just like I did in my coastal dining room makeover. And remember, Serena & Lily is always there to help you curate a space that reflects your taste and personality.
