Break the Bank vs. Cheapskate {Leather Barstools}

Long time, no chat!  I took the summer off from blogging but have enjoyed keeping up with everyone via Instagram!  I hope you had a great summer!  We enjoyed ours, but it always goes so fast!  Regardless, my girls are back in school and I am excited to get back to work!  

So...let me jump right in and show you some fun finds I came across while sourcing bar stools for a client.  She liked the leather look and she knew she wanted to keep things budget friendly.  Easy enough....here is what I came up with:

Break the Bank:
Link:  Crate and Barrel Lowe Barstool
$299

Cheapskate:
Link: Kirkland's Faux Leather Barstool
$149.99

Another style we considered:

Break the Bank:
Link: Pottery Barn Manchester Barstool
$399

Cheapskate:
Link: Kirkland's Everitt Leather Barstool
$129.99

I just love that Kirkland's has some affordable, yet stylish, options! I think my favorite is the Everitt...I am a sucker for the nailhead trim!
