Have you ever noticed that movies come out in theme waves? Like all of a sudden there will be two movies out the same weekend about deadly meteors, or volcanos, or illusionists, or computer animated insects. Two Snow White movies?! Weird. Anyway I’ve been noticing over the years that my inbox works the same way. I’ll get multiple requests for the same very random thing around the same time . And lately it seems everyone needs cute little chairs for their cute little kiddies.
We’re doing a mix of four different kid chair styles in the girls room at their play table, and I needed to pick up two new ones, so this post was helpful for me too! Win-win!
Last night I ended up buying the pink Bertoia and an orange Panton S chair from this site. The prices were the lowest I’ve seen for modern kids chairs. And of course, if you’re not wanting to invest a little cash in kid’s furniture, IKEA and Target always come through for me. I bought a pair of these bubblegum pink chairs a couple weeks ago on clearance for $20 (I only need one though – anyone want the extra chair?). I’ve got a fun project idea planned for the pink chair. And one of these old Louis style chairs is getting reupholstered. Won’t that be a fun mix of styles?
Have you seen any really cute kids chairs out there lately? I think I like little chairs to be a bit on the modern side. You?
PS Can you think of other movies with similar themes that came out at the same time? (#TriviaNerd)
PPS I love love love Evie’s little chubby thighs. She’s two and a half and is starting to lose some of the baby rolls. It is breaking my heart. :(
This is such a great blog post! Very good information! Appreciating the hard work you put into your site. It’s awesome blog.

Have you tried Little Nest? I have a magenta egg chair from there and it's amazing!! A little pricey but you get a designer discount;)
Xxx
Have you seen the cute kids stools at Ikea, they are wooden and my S loves spinning around. Hope the move is going well!
Such a great round up! Sounds like the girls' table and chairs will be amazing!
I bought the baby Bertoia chairs for my son. He loves them, but be warned…they tip over easily. =)
I love them all!
my 2 favs are 8 & 10…i teach at an all girls school & my first grade girls would LOVE to work in some of these fun chairs! would love to get a couple for my classroom.

I love the purple ghost chair. It's so adorable!
Lolol I blogged about the same thing today! Two little Bert's are headed my way:)
Thanks Jenny! I've been considering working a kid table into a corner of my living room, but it would have to look good enough or it would drive me nuts.
Evie is so cute! I love those chunky leggies! My babies are precious, but they never chunk up like that. You must just eat her up with a spoon! I love her ruffly suit! Wish I could find one like it for me!
so cute! We have a Babee Tenda chair that came with our feeding table, and I love it. It is white with blue pinstripes and feels very grownup, but it's tiny! Also, a red nest-like chair- also looks like a miniaturized grown up chair.
Those are some great ones. My kids are *almost* too big for their little chairs, sniff sniff. Other cute ones are:
