Art of the Mismatch

A picture I'm loving today and want to share with you all:
via Apartment Therapy

Bent-wood chairs like these shown are making big comeback---
and I love all the whimsy colors on these.

Want the look for yourself? 
Start pricing bentwood chairs at garage sales, estate sales, and thrift stores: 
Then, after choosing a color scheme---such as:
-pastels, shown above
-brights
-natural earth tones
-different tones of one color

hit the hardware store and pick up some spray paint. 


Easy weekend project!
