Once we’d got the new table<\/a> in place, it was time to start looking for new chairs. Obviously.

Since last summer, when Olof started building the table, I had been toying with the idea of doing mismatched dining chairs to go with it. I really like the look, plus it can be a lot more affordable than buying a set of matching chairs.

In case you can’t see it well, there are two each of four different chair styles. I’m happier with the result than I thought I might be.
