{Dining Room} Tour

Pin It
I shared with you here, our girl's room in the new house!



Today I would love to share with you our Dining Room.  It is SO NICE to not eat every meal in the kitchen any more!  I love that we have a separate dining room for dinner time and holidays.  

I know some families wouldn't use a "formal" dining room, but we do!


So here it is!



We got at extra long table, with leaves than can be taken out.  The six chairs in the middle are fully wipe-able   And boy, am I glad about that!




I'm in LOVE with these "queen" chairs, as Miss J calls them.  The high backs are so fun!


Pillows for each of the "queen" chairs.  Love this print.



I couldn't believe my good luck when I found this buffet!  It's perfect for the aqua accents I did it the room.




The weathered, rustic feel is great for this space.  The little drawers are handy for storing all my entertaining supplies too!





On top of the buffet, I found these aqua lamps, and my favorite white candlesticks.  They belonged to my great-grandma.  She is the one who taught me to sew-I miss her an awful lot.





The brassy mirror above my buffet *might* be my favorite part of the room.




Or this life size pocket watch.  It's a tie!







For the middle of the table, I found this chippy, aqua tray.  I threw in a few succulents, and called it good!






Thanks for checking out my new space!

    These rooms are gorgeous. Do you mind if I ask where you found the rug in your dining room?

    You've done a great job! I was wondering about the rug as well. And where did you find the buffet?

      The rug is from Z Gallerie. The buffet was a Home Goods find. Love that place!

      It is Mindful Gay by Sherwin Williams. It is the perfect gray!! A true gray is hard to find, but this is it.

    Very well done space. I think the large watch/clock on the wall is my favorite.

    Your 'formal' dining room is beautiful! Love the wall sized pocket watch - looks like something from Alice in Wonderland.

      The chairs are from Pier 1, and the clock is from Hobby Lobby. I've even seen the clock there in red. It's cute too!

    Gorgeous! Your dining table is just what I've been searching for. Would you mind sharing the source? We're looking for a table that can withstand meals, crafts, homework, etc.

    I found you at A peek into my paradise linky party... I totally love your style! I've been on a huge aqua kick lately so i'm in love with your accents! Also your girls room is adorable! We just moved and for the first time my girls are smooshed :) together in a room so I'm trying to come up with some creative decorating to fit both of their personalities.

    Dining room chairs play a vital role in the dining room. How they look and fit in the room is important, but it's also imperative that they be comfortable.

    Would you be willing to share your source for your curtains? I love that they are neutral while still having so much style!
