I like the shape and contrast with the gray of #1 better but it sort of looks like a sloppy DIY version. I do like #2 but it's such a trendy look right now it's kind of "blogger/pinterest" overplayed.
I think #1 is more classic. Maybe I look at pinterest/decor blogs too much but I see #2 everywhere. It's still nice but really kind of common. #1 is more special IMO.
I don't like the deeper tufts (or whatever it's called where the buttons are) on #1. I'm also not crazy about the lines. I like the color of #2 better, and also the straight, clean lines.
