Fabric, Fabric, Oh my!

I am re-upholstering some chairs of mine that are in DESPERATE need of a make-over! But I have been on the hunt for fabric for almost a year. I just cant make a decision. I think because I hate the fabric that is on the chairs right now, I am a little worried I will hate whatever new fabric I choose down the road.

But my friend Lauren turned me on to this site and I had some luck finding some patterns I really thought would look great and went with my style.

Here are my options:


This is my favorite. Of course, I love gray. I think it would be so pretty with some pillows that have some pops of color? Or is it too bland or too much? I am not good at this....

I liked the flower pattern in this one with the cream background. But is it too much for two chairs and an ottoman?


This one Is just a basic cream on cream paisley design. Very simple, but Im not so sure it is me. I like things that are a bit more eclectic but this could be nice?


This one is similar to the other flowered one but it has more of pinkish background. Not so sure about that pinkish background...


I really love this one too. I thought it was very classy but very cute too. What do you think I am leaning towards this and the Gray from above.



It is such as tough decision. If I do the gray should I do every piece in it? Should I mix the fabrics up and do one chair in one and one in the other or no? Help!

Here is a better look at the fabric samples I chose:








Let me know if you all have any other fabric suggestions or other places to look!
