Serena & Lily Shore Dining Chair Review

Last fall, our dining room got a major upgrade with a new Serena and Lily dining table and chairs. Since then, it’s become our new favorite hangout room in the house! That was my entire goal for the project, as I really wanted to maximize every room in our small home. Since we’ve been living with and using our new furniture for a few months now, I thought I’d share a bit about how we’ve been liking our new Shore Dining chairs.

The chairs in this space were the main driving factor for wanting to make a change, as I wanted something that was comfortable enough for us to spend hours sitting in them in the evenings. We have my parents over for dinner often, and we wanted to create a space where we could have a meal and be comfortable enough to sit and talk afterwards for a couple hours. The Shore Dining chairs are definitely the perfect fit for just that! The deeper seat and padded seat cushion are very comfortable. I’ve added in a decorative throw pillow to each chair to provide some back support, which makes these chairs super easy to lounge in for hours. I love that they are deep enough to accommodate a pillow, as it also allows me to add another layer of color, pattern, and texture to the space to create a welcoming feel.

My husband and I love doing puzzles, especially in the winter months. We like to do a puzzle every single night, and will sit at the table for hours working on them. The Shore Dining chair is so easy to for us to sit in for long periods of time as we work on puzzles until late in the evening. I’m 5’3”, and I’ve found the seat has plenty of room my legs up in with the blanket on colder nights. Our dining room also gets the most natural light in the house, and has the best view of the backyard, especially in the summertime. I tend to sit here on sunny days and look out the window at our gardens, so having a comfortable place to sit was definitely on my list. Since we used our old dining room so infrequently before, I had considered turning this room into a sitting room. With our new comfortable Shore Dining chairs, I feel like I have the best of both—a comfortable place to sit and enjoy the sunshine, but also a place to have a meal and entertain.

Our dogs love them, too! We each always have at least one dog sitting in our Shore Dining chairs with us. The seat cushion is covered in Serena & Lily’s perennials fabric, which is a really durable, easily wipeable performance fabric. We’re never worried about stains or spills with these cushions. They are machine-washable, and will stand up to years of use and plenty of entertaining. The Shore Dining chair cushion covers come in a variety of colors and patterns, which is another great way to add in some personality to the space, or change up the look from season to season. I’m going to link a few of my favorite Shore Dining chair cushion covers below.

Apart from their comfort and functionality, the Shore Dining chair is beautiful! I really love the curves and silhouette of the chairs. They has a really unique look that is sure to elevate any space. The woven rattan frame feels warm and inviting, and keeps the space feeling casual. The handle detail at the top of the chair makes them easy to pull out or push in to the table, and they’re light weight enough to do so with just one hand. I really love the pairing to the Shore Dining chairs with our Faux Bois dining table. They both have a natural feel to them that keeps our dining space inviting but unique. The Faux Bois dining table is truly a work of art! The gathered twig base is such a beautiful detail that makes the table feel almost like a sculpture.

Overall, we’re very happy that we added the Shore Dining chairs to our dining room this fall. We were able to enjoy them over the holidays and have spent countless hours sitting in them this winter doing too many puzzles to count! They’ve not only made our dining space more enjoyable, but have also made it more functional as well. Since we live in a smaller home, it’s really important to us to have each room serve multiple purposes. Since adding in these new Serena and Lily pieces we can definitely say that, and we’ve spent many many more hours in our dining room over the last few months because of it.

Right now Serena and Lily is having their Spring Design Event, where everything is 20% off! If you’ve had your eye on something special, now is the time to bring it home! Use code: HOME. I’m going to link a few more of my favorite Serena and Lily dining pieces below!
