Chair Backs
By Jan Littlejohn
Chair back offer extra potential for decorating a room and
have been relatively under used until recently. There is
something very charming and quite unexpected about a chair
embellished with a tied post or trimmed with a great gauzy
ribbon. Pay special attention to the brides and grooms
chairs and use simpler ideas for the rest of the seating, if
you prefer. Choose long-lasting flowers that will look good
all day.
Some ideas:
Hydrangeas are a good option as their papery flowers last
well.
A simple paper cone overflows with green and white
variegated foliage and a froth of humble cow parsley tied
with a wide satin ribbon
A single diaphanous bow of palest yellow organdie softens a
painted chair back
Or perhaps a washed-out sky blue of a mophead hydrangea
partnered with a narrow pale blue ribbon on a white bentwood
chair
