Holy Malawi Chair! This Just Got Real.

April 11, 2017 · In: Design, Interior Design

Malawi Chair

Rattan and wicker.  They are the coconut scented sunscreen and bathing suits of chairs.  Even if you are 10.6k miles from the sea or any other body of water than might get a ray of sun, these woven materials just make it feel like summer is here… and with it, possibility and endless bliss.

Enough said, right?  Who needs more coaxing to pop a few of these Malawi chairs into their cart and sail down the virtual shopping aisle?  Not me!  BUT, did you know that if you purchase from CB2 (the least expensive place I could find online anyways) you actually get to save Africa.  No freaking kidding.  You can literally save an entire village… while shopping.

Who knew shopping could be so life altering!  Each one of these chairs is hand woven and even hand knotted out of bamboo to create a truly artisan piece.  Each one is signed, too.  I love that!  Here are a few of my favorite ways to incorporate the Malawi Chair into your home…

Earthy:

Use pale colors on the wall, accent with vintage portraits, and go dark with your chair.

Sultry:

Add palms, a deep wall color, and florals + linen (all affordable at H&M home!)

Earthy Modern:

Use Sheepskin, a bohemian rug, and modern accents to bring the Malawi chair indoors (this one is $399 at CB2)

Use them in the Dining Room:

Pair a set of chairs with a beaded chandelier, an oversized bohemian wall mirror, a distressed table, and wood accents for a relaxed atmosphere.

The Outdoor Dining Room:

The Lace Jute rug (starting at $64!) + The Claw foot Tub + A Laundry basket with handles for easy toting?  LOVE!

Go Bold:

Paint it bright turquoise… or orange or pink or whatever strikes your fancy!

#TargetPartner I love creating a Baking Station for the festive season so it’s super easy and cozy to spend time whipping up all of our holiday faves! 

Hanging a wreath over the window & potted trees to the counter really gets the mood started!  No Baking Station is complete without a Kitchenaid.  And this one in green is just DELICIOUS!  @TargetStyle has some of the CUTEST holiday supplies, starting with sets of kitchen towels, snowflake embossed measuring cups, and plaid plates!  The snowflake stencil that comes with the red stitched mug might just be my favorite!
