Show Us Where You Live - Dining Room

I know many of you have already seen my dining room, but I thought I'd join in the party over at Kelly's Korner for Show Us Where You Live Friday. She has been featuring different rooms over the last several weeks, but this is the first time I have participated. My dining room used to be red like my kitchen, but I painted it and the foyer yellow/gold a while back. It definitely brightened things up! I have tried to decorate it like my kitchen, not formal, so they flow. I have a mix of different things. As you can see none of the furniture matches, but that's OK with me. Check out lots of other dining rooms over at Kelly's Korner. Hope you have a fun and safe Memorial Day weekend!!!

I love your dining room! It is exactly how I decorate!! I have mismatched furniture, some painted, some dark wood, some light wood. I just feel I have a hard time with accessories and making them look good.

Beautiful dining room. I am trying to figure out what color to paint mine right now. I did participate in the dining room show this week though. We also seem to have one matching accessory... a dog in the pictures. LOL

Love your cabinets and storage pieces. Very inviting room.

Hi Angie~
I LOVE your dining room! It is perfect! I love the color you painted it, too! Your white furniture just "pops" against those yellow walls! LOVE all the pictures~ truly they could be in a magazine!

I hope you are having a great Memorial Day weekend, too! :)

Rechelle ~Walnuthaven Cottage~ said...

What a very pretty space. I love how you've got the nice big window for natural light and I am really digging that dry sink. Do you use it regularly or is it more the "formal" area?
Loving your panels. Waverly? I love Waverly!

Love your dining room. It is totally my style. I looked at your list of your favorite things on your side bar & every single one of them is on my list of favorite things (if I were to actually write down a list). Thanks for visiting my blog & leaving me a comment on my lamps. I posted a 2nd post for the lampapalooza party & I show a rooster lamp with a toile shade that you would probably enjoy as well.
