How to Mix Rainbow Dining Chairs

One thing we like about going multi-colored is that your dining chairs absolutely do not have to match. Simply keep your rainbow dining chairs in the same hue and material. Choose any color you like, but make sure they all have the same level of intensity. The shape of the back is also not as important as the material used. Stick with all wood, all plastic, or all metal. You can mismatch materials on the host chair at the long ends, if you wish.

Brighten Up All-White

If you’re going for the all-white kitchen that is ever so popular these days, don’t let it disappear! Keep your dining area vibrant with rainbow dining chairs or colored tables. Add bright works of art and fresh flowers so that the room stays lively. Kitchens and dining rooms should be the most social areas of your home, so encourage conversation. This is also the area we generally start and end our days, so make sure the atmosphere is a positive one.

Have Fun With Paint

Color like this is also perfect for the Creativity + Children center of your home. Be sure to check out our Feng Shui guide for a simple map to this area. Multi-colored paint is also a fun way to dress up vintage chairs or get creative with neutral woods. One of our favorite ideas is to mix up how you paint rainbow dining chairs seats and legs. If you have chairs all the same style and wood type, try painting the legs only and see what you think. Or, do the reverse, and let the legs stay bare. It’s fun to create little optical illusions with dining room seating and the possibilities are endless.

Tone it Down With Industrial

Mix-and-match dining sets with a multi-colored effect doesn’t have to be kindergarten style. You can definitely keep your rainbow dining chairs at least 2nd grade by using muted color tones.  This is a nice look that the guys in the house will go for, too. If you’re doing the industrial thing, you can mix materials as long as you stagger the seating. Get creative and work with your existing decor.
