Mood Board Monday... Come Play!

PK at Room Remix has asked me to choose the inspiration pieces for her next Mood Board Monday McLinky party. Obsessed with chairs as I am, I couldn't help but choose these two beauties from Anthropologie. Click on the pics to go to their source.

Bertram

Antwerp

Both chairs have leggy profiles and are upholstered in fabrics with dark backgrounds. One, however, has clean, contemporary lines and is dressed in mixed-up menswear stripes while the other boasts brightly-colored paisley and suzani embroidery on a classic, curvy French bergere frame. Even the backs of the chairs have their own unique designs.

I love tham both and have no idea which one I'll end up using. I hope you like them too and I can't wait to see all the creative ways they're put to use. By the way, if you use Polyvore to create your mood boards, Bertram and Antwerp are already there, listed by name.

This Mood Board Monday is scheduled for November 9th. Mark your calendar and get ready to show your work. Thanks to PK for asking me to host the party here too.

As a reminder, here are the "rules"... otherwise known as "guidelines":

1) This is NOT a mood board competition for designers (although designers are certainly welcome to participate). This IS a fun way to share all of the creativity out there, and showcase how we can all start from one inspiration point and end up with a variety of ideas.
2) To be a participant, you need to create a complete mood board for a room of your choice using at least one of the two inspiration items shown here.
3) On MBM party day, you will need to include sources in your post and give a brief description of the room and how you used the inspiation item(s).

Now, go get "designery" and we'll see you back here on the 9th!
