Affordable Dining Chairs Round Up

Affordable Dining Chairs Round Up
March 3, 2020

Let’s talk dining room chairs, and I have an affordable dining chairs round up for you below. My advice – don’t buy the dining room set! I like to pick out a quality table, one that is classic, with clean lines that will work with any style.  Then I like to choose the chairs that will coordinate but not match exactly. 

See more of this dining room.


Another tip I have is to select 2 chairs that are different from the others and put these at each end. Some may refer to these as captain’s chairs. For instance, I might choose some wooden side café chairs but then a pair of upholstered parson’s chairs for each head of the table.


By using a mixed set of chairs you can swap out the side chairs or the chairs at the ends of the table at anytime if you want to change the look. Just be sure they coordinate in style. I’ll show you an example.

A Thoughtful Place


Courtney, from A Thoughtful Place, has done it right. Look at this beautiful dining room. The chairs don’t match the table, but they coordinate so well.


DINING CHAIRS


I’ve rounded up some great dining chairs that will work with a variety of styles. You can mix and match many of these if you’re in the market for new chairs. Some of these are under $100! That last chair I have in my dining room and love it!

This table from Pottery Barn has a clean and timeless look, and would work with any of the chairs in my round up.


I love these vases with a few of these floral stems for a simple, spring centerpiece.

This is a gorgeous light fixture and for a great price.


I love the colors and pattern of this rug.
