REVISITING OUR DINING ROOM

With everything going on lately in our lives, I haven't had many chances to blog. I feel like I am falling behind. :) 
But caring for our son and making sure he gets the proper medical care has been my first priority.

I have not done any Spring decorating yet, hope to fix that in the next few weeks, but I have made 

some small changes here and there to our home.

Today I am sharing our dining room. I try to keep it clean and organized since it is one of the first rooms 
you see when you walk into our home.

We bought the new furniture about a year and a half ago.

We couldn't find a set that we liked, so we purchased the table and buffet from Ashley and the chairs from Overstock.

A few weeks ago, a created a simple everyday vignette to decorate the table using items I already had. 

I am also using the same drop cloth runner I made last year.

The white basket is from Ross, the burlap flowers from Hobby Lobby, crystal vase was a gift from my in-law, the silver and very heavy candle holder I also purchased at Ross last year for $3.00 if you can believe it, the little ceramic orb is from Kirklands and the monogrammed plate I bought at Goodwill years ago for $0.50 cents and just added to it our initial that I made on the silhouette cameo.

The buffet is decorated very simply and it has been like that since the new year. I think I want to make some changes to it soon, but for now it holds a few of my old decor items and a new lamp I bought last Fall at Kirklands.

I am sure by now you have noticed the design on the walls.

I stenciled the dining room walls many years ago. Since then, I have been tempted to paint over it, but after all the work that I put into it, I think I will keep them for a little while longer. :)

I also hope this is the year we can replace the carpet with hardwood floors. It may be Summer time before we can get into such a big remodel, but, for now, this is what we have.

And this is the view from the butler's pantry.

And that is it for today. I have been working on making some changes in our kitchen that I will share with you 

all soon. Meanwhile, enjoy your day and thank you so much for stopping by.
