Where can I buy just chairs for the dining room table?
My mom gave me her farmhouse table because it was too big for her house but she kept her chairs for her new table. We had chairs from our old table but 1. they don't match, either to the table or each other lol 2. they are vintage and have cane seats that are either ripping off in pieces, are so used that they are sagging and in one of the chairs a person is going to fall through any day now, and the cats have scratched them all up.
What chairs would go with a farmhouse table and where can I get some at a good price but also quality. I want to make this purchase once until like 20 yrs down the line so they have to last that long plus survive 2 cats and 2 boys!
I have a Pottery Barn style I guess you would say or a shabby chic meets beachy meets Pottery Barn meets vintage antiques... not too much of them alone but a tad of each combined.

Re: Where can I buy just chairs for the dining room table?
I Loooove farm dining tables. I am actually looking for one for our non formal dining area. I have narrowed down my list to the following chairs to accompany
#1 Wegner wishbone chair #2 Eames Plastic molded chair #3 Phillipe Stark Ghost Chair
The originals are sold at DWR, Room and Board, ABC Home + Carpet
BUT there are many quality imitations available on sites like Overstock.com.
I just love love love the look of a farm table with those chairs. Google the names along with farmhouse table as keywords and you will have tons of ideas if it is a look you are going for.

Try one of the dinette stores. We used Top Dinette on Rte 25 in Selden/Medford area. They have the catalogs of the manufacturers, so even if you find a chair you like, but don't like the finish you see, the catalog shows lots of other color options. We went this route as we didn't like the chairs that went with our kitchen table, so we went to the dinette store, sat in a bunch until we found a style we liked and then reviewed the various color (staining) options.

^^ this!!! The dinette stores provides catalog from where you can choose the color, design & finish you want. That really worked with us also.

Gothic or PB-- or even try Pier 1, but I personally don't like getting furniture from there cause everything comes off the floor and there is no stock.

Try the Pottery Barn Outlet in Riverhead in the Tanger Mall. It often has very good prices on their dining chairs. If you know what style you like, give them a call. The staff there told me lots of people call them for particular items.
I'm sitting in one of their chairs now.
