oh darn i have to shop

moving forward with my journey to build our dream home!

following the recipe for making a credit score...  i now have 2 lines of credit with Best Buy (they gave me $2000 which is a good sign!) and The Gap.  now my bank has instructed me it would help my credit score to get a line of credit for something like furniture and finance it.  THEN i can apply for a bank line of credit (if i apply to early and get denied it's a BIG ding on my credit score for 2 years).  THEN i can get a pre-approved mortgage and THEN i can get a construction loan!!!

so when i look at my floor plan, i have already allotted where all of the current furniture we own will go (oh yes i even did it all to scale).  the only furniture i don't already have for the house is dining table and chairs (and guest room stuff).  off to research dining furniture!!!

table

i love this rustic table under $500 from World Market

chairs

i almost didn't give a link to these chairs because they're one of a kind and i really like them!  but i don't have a way to get to NC soon and the shipping could be outrageous.  anyways.. i love the idea of wingbacks like these for dining end chairs!

as for the other chairs here are some options i love

i love bucket cane chairs!

from left to right:

yellow cane chairs found these on decor pad - not the color combo for my dining table but love them!

white cane chair great redo on a vintage piece from etsy.  not cheap though...

set of white cain chairs another image from decorpad - these would be ideal!

global views cane chair i've had my eye on this guy for a while now.  their white version is beautiful too.  doesn't hurt that i have an interior design wholesale account with them! (still not cheap!)

i also love bamboo chippendale chairs!

from left to right:

white pair of arm chippendale chairs  found this awesome bathroom pic on decorpad love them as a pair

black desk chippendale chair love this with the bamboo desk and the white seat

white and turquoise chippendale breakfast chairs great combo for a kitchen!

teal chippendale armchair wisteria's version - they have them in multiple colors and armless - not too crazy about the pattern change they did

black and white chippendale these Jonathan Adler ones are done perfectly to respect Thomas Chippendale.  you'll pay an arm a leg though...
