dining room

My last post I put pictures of my new corner cabinet in the dining room so this time I thought I would show my whole dining room. After adding the new cabinet I got inspired to change a few things around. This room is very small and always seemed dark to me so I've tried to add lighter colors to make it feel happy and bigger than what it really is.





The chalkboard that we write the menu for each night on


.
My wood cities sign (would like to visit all these places with my family eventually) and my stained glass window that hangs from the opening overlooking the living room.



My cactus that I wrapped in burlap and sat on my breadboard and wooden tray. I've changed the centerpiece for this table numerous times but I like this one so far. The green adds a little color to the room.




I got so excited about changing everything I even reupholstered the dining room chairs in this neutrals striped pattern. I went to the fabric store and was immediately drawn to it. Overall I'm very pleased with the outcome, although I'm sure I'll still continue to rearrange..it's in my blood:)




I hope everyone is having a good week so far. The weekend is in sight!

    I love your table-the white with the warmth of wood. You did a great job on the chairs. You are right the cactus does add color and brings life to the room. Thanks for sharing --Susie

    Your dining room is really charming! I love your chairs with the striped fabric too. The chalkboard is a cute idea. I love chalkboards and yours is a great size for that wall! Now, you must be happy because the weekend is officially here now.
