Divine Deals & Steals - Designer Edition

At first glance, one might walk right past the sleek, modern pieces below that are sitting so modestly in our showroom. Philippe Starck? Zanotta? What does that even mean???

DIVINE DEAL
Philippe Starck Kong Barstool - $439 (Original $1,945) (Item # 33073)
2 available

The chairs and barstools in today's post came to us from consignors who purchased them exclusively from high-end design showrooms in downtown Chicago. And, for some crazy reason, they've decided to part with these pretty much perfect-condition items, meaning they are yours for approximately one-quarter of their original retail price. Say whhhaaaa??!

DIVINE STEAL
Zanotta Italian Dining Chair - 20% OFF @ $175 (Original $650) (Item # 32061)

Chair back into picture frame (or mirror, or cork board, or dry erase board, or…)



We've been inspired!

As a furniture and home accessories consignment store, we want our customers to feel inspired every time they come in, without having to spend an arm and a leg on redecorating.

Today, we’ve come across a repurposing idea (thanks to allthingsthrifty.com) SO great, thrifty, and inexpensive, we just couldn't keep it to ourselves!

You will need:
- An old chair
- A saw
- A razor blade
- A can of spray paint
- Some elbow grease
- A husband (optional)


Step One: Go up to your attic and dust off that 3-legged chair you just haven’t been able to part with for one reason or another (Don’t have one of those lying around? We’ve got lots of super inexpensive chairs here at Divine!)

Step Two: Get to work sawing off the top of the chair, scraping, sanding, or sawing off whatever is inside (i.e. basket weave, etc.) sanding the edges, and spray painting it to your color of choice.

Step Three: Ta da! Look at what you’ve created! We’re so proud of you….now use that creative mind of yours to decide what to put inside of it!



Pictures...or a mirror...or a chalk/cork/dry erase board...or...


Let us know how yours turned out!

Mix-N-Match Your Dining Chairs!

We wouldn't go so far to say that matching dining sets are "out" - in fact, a well-appointed matching dining set always looks divine (we like that word).

Here is our big BUT (hee hee) - mixing and matching dining chairs is just so fun!! There are all sorts of ways to combine different chair styles to achieve an eclectic and finished dining space.

Each chair is different, but two or more chairs have the same finish.
Grab a can of spray paint and finish chairs the same color to create cohesiveness.
Paint chairs a neutral color and reupholster in the same fabric - love it!
Divine Consign always has dining chairs just waiting to be transformed. PLUS, with our brand new DESIGN CENTER we can REUPHOLSTER your chairs too! Woo hoo!
