Duck Egg Dining Chairs Create Dilemma in the Dining Room (and cute baby sheep!!!)

Happy Thursday!  Hope you all have had a great week so far!  I survived my first R.I.P.P.E.D. class at the gym and really enjoyed it, as much as one can enjoy exercise I suppose.  I could have done with less push-ups though. :)  After class I spent the afternoon working on the chairs I am about to share.  And finally, when the kids got off the bus we visited some friends who recently welcomed a bunch of new babies into their family....

Aren't they all the sweetest?  My kids were in heaven petting these little guys!  And their little "baaaas" are the cutest!  Anyhow, I just had to share these pictures because you can't look at a lamb and not melt just a little.

Yesterday I shared a cool Duck Egg console piece with you and also told you that I was working on some dining chairs in the same color.
Here is what the looked like when I purchased them,,,

I gave them two coats of Duck Egg chalk paint, used my wet rag distressing method, and finished them with a clear wax.  I recovered the seats in burlap.  And here is what they look like now...

Now.... I am going to be honest.  I painted them this color because I thought I may want to keep them to bring some more aqua into the dining room.  Also, I liked their scale better than my current chairs.  (My current chairs were given to me by a friend and were meant to be used until I found "The chairs".  I had to replace the modern chairs I had that Chris couldn't stand.)  As a reminder, here is what the chairs look like in my dining room....


Now, I switched them out for the photo shoot and I think I am going to keep these new ones.... what say you?

I love how they tie in the aqua from the front door, now that it was recently painted.

These also have higher backs and I think the scale better suits our table.

So, what do you think?  Which chairs would you keep??? Would you forget about the chairs, and just go snuggle a lamb?
Hi, I am an adorable lamb and I love you.
