I kinda feel like they need to be slightly more substantial. I don't know if it's the way the pictures were taken but they seem to small for that island almost dainty in a way. Maybe you need one more?

Kudos for seeing what they could be. I think what might be holding you back from loving them is the proportion. I think if you had two more, they would fill up the space nicely. Since they are petite, three seems a little out of proportion with the size of the island.

I giggle at 'balls' too. My hubby calls me Jack when I do this (Jack mcfarland from Will & Grace). Anyway, I wonder if it is the size of the seat that is 'off' or tripping you up? I like them as-is (great re-do job!), but I could see liking them even more if the wood was a bit bigger (hehehehe more giggling).

I like the colors and how they tie in with the little bits of industrial/rustic you have going on but I agree with Carrie, the scale of the seat is to small.

I DO like them, and it goes without saying that they're 1,000 times better than they started out being. But, something is off. I LOVE the metal base, but the scale of the top seems too small.
