Corner stools/chairs in rooms - tanTALK

Maison Du Solei · 03-30-2010, 11:39 AM

I was wondering what stools or chairs you guys had in your rooms and do you have the same ones in every room? Reason I'm asking is because the salon we bought in July 09 has those typical white outside cheesy chairs in every room and was wanting the Benjamin stools from Ikea but everytime I check the availability online, they're sold out! So, 9 months into this, I NEED new stools/chairs ASAP because these stupid chairs have got to do! I cant find anything I like that isnt $100 or more so maybe you guys can give me some ideas. Thanks in advance :)

I have the herman chairs from Ikea which work out well.

Those are very nice! thanks!

I thought about having my husband make something like in this but of course, paint them to match every room or making it not so plain

I started with little round stools from Ikea, $5.00, but I always wanted the rooms to appear more welcoming, hopefully not to welcooming that they don't get out quickly.

I did eBay. 18" stool. VERY nice wood, built tough and LOOK great. $20 each, bought 6. Or go to Pier One for $100 each - EXACT same stool.

I got a steal and I am sure these can be found cheaper, but here are the ones I got:

So check out eBay too.

I just bought on 4 ottoman's on clearance from Gordmans..and 4 heavy wicker chairs from Craigslist that I will spray paint to match the rooms. The 4 ottomans are going into tanning rooms and 1 wicker chair into a tanning room. The other 3 chairs are going into the nail tech waiting room. Each ottoman was $30 and the 4 chairs were $80. It was difficult to find something that looks nice and wasn't over $100! Gordman's has lots and lots of cool items.
