It used to be that a family room was made up of a sofa, a loveseat, and a BIG comfy chair. I’ve noticed that there are a lot more recliners and oversized chairs on Craigslist these days and an abundance of smaller, matching, streamlined accent chairs in the magazines. A strange coincidence or a sign of the times?
I definitely love its clean look!

When planning my family room I knew I wanted to create a similar look, however, as I searched around I was faced with a BIG problem! In many cases just one nice looking chair cost over $500. That meant 2 matching chairs would cost at least $1000! (impressive math skills, I know):-)
After a lot of research though I discovered you can get this look for less! A lot less. Here are a collection of attractive, stylish accent chairs for under $235 a piece! (Disclaimer: It is the nature of prices to fluctuate. Prices listed are current of 2/13/14. Additionally, I can only attest to the aesthetic qualities of the chairs listed, be sure to check their dimensions and reviews before purchasing! (boy, do I sound like a mom or what, make sure you do your homework, nag nag nag):-)
