We're in dining heaven with mismatched chairs :)

Dining settings in the past have generally been quite tame and rigid
and lets face it ... a little boring!

The dining room is a place of fun and happiness
and your setting should represent that!

Steer away from the good old matching table and chairs that your parents had...
it's outdated and super uncool :)

The key to achieving the mismatched look is to keep the table quite simple
(either a timber or stainless steel legged table works perfectly)
and then decorate it with mismatched chairs!

If you're nervous about it all 'not matching' ...
(even though that's kinda the point!)
you can maintain consistency through the style of chair or the colour...

Personally we love a mixture of materials, textures, colours, prints and styles!

Have fun with it and don't take it too seriously :) 

Our favourite renovators on the block Sophie and Dale used mismatched chairs
in their dining setting! We also LOVE the exposed brick and handmade
'bon appétit' sign. Perfection!

Here are some of our favourite ways to use mismatched chairs!



Here at Sky Parlour we also have a range of chairs available for you to purchase!

timeless decorating









Clocks have the ability to change the face of a room...
whether it's an oversized farmhouse style clock or a group of
mish mashed small vintage alarm clocks, they create great
focal points throughout your home.

Clocks are very versatile and can be incorporated into any decor style;
rustic, traditional, eclectic, country... there is something very
romantic and dramatic about an old clock.

Whether used for it's function or purely a visual element,
they make such a handsome piece of decor... vintage style clocks
are truly timeless and every house should have plenty of them!





Check out Sky Parlour's rustic yellow wall clock and 
vintage style black alarm clock...

{ Pigeon Hole Shelves }

The pigeon hole shelving system was derived from the early
17th century where they were literally used as a hole for pigeons!
This system later developed as a compartment
system for leaving messages and papers...
today they are making an appearance in the interior design world and
we think there is nothing cuter than a pigeon hole shelf
to store all of your collectables, jewellery, candles, letters, keys
and anything else you can pop in there!

Pigeon hole shelves are super cute for the kids room
to display their books, wooden toys, dolls and cars!
