Here are a few chairs from my craigslist that I think could work really well. I'm looking for something with a really interesting silhouette for the back.
or this pale gray shagreen vinyl and maybe a color on the chair frames?

Upholstering the backs of vintage chairs
I've been thinking of host chairs lately for our dining table and nothing gets me excited (well, if you had a pair of Elkins chairs, I'd gladly take them off your hands!). But then I saw this image from an old Style at Home and it made a lightbulb go off for me. From the article is looks like the designer, Samantha Pynn, found a set of vintage chairs on Craigslist, painted and reupholstered them, including the backs of two chairs. This would be so easy to DIY, especially with chairs that have a perfectly flat back. You could just use chipboard or plywood. Otherwise you would just use webbing which isn't that hard to do (I did it here).
I'm thinking either this slate ostrich vinyl or this pale gray shagreen vinyl and maybe a color on the chair frames?
