She's got a beautiful collection of interesting vignettes, a sophisticated and playful choice of colors, and a discriminating eye for the things she displays in her home. She's letting us take a peek into her home, but with the notice that this is to be considered the "before"--she has just recently moved in with her boyfriend and is working on incorporating her life with his. While she dives head first into making her (very beautiful) style work with his, we can see just how she expresses herself in her home when the canvas is all hers.

I wanted to know if you or your readers could tell me anything more about them. I think they could be from the Art Deco era. They have a slight curved detail to the front legs, plus the curvature in the back, as well. Also, the original batting was the old-school cotton batting. The green fabric is the original fabric, the flowery one shows how they looked when I bought them, and the red paisley is my new upholstery. Any answers about these chairs would be awesome!
