Dining Rooms

It's Friday so that means it's Show Us Your Life time at Kelly's Korner. This week is dining rooms. Our dining room is one of the few rooms in the house that we didn't paint when we moved it. I really like the color. This is a picture I took standing in the foyer.

I love my dining set & china cabinet. It took forever to get it. Apparently, coming from Indonesia causes all sorts of problems with customs. Who knew? Not me! I didn't even know it was coming from Indonesia but that's another story.

I'm thinking about taking down the grape plaques. I think I'm tired of them. The door just next to them goes into the kitchen. This is a vase that our friend brought us from Mexico. The picture came from Kirkland's.

I just bought the window treatment a couple of weeks ago. Yes, we've lived here 5 years. All of the windows are tall which means you can't find window treatments just anywhere.  I found these panels at a home decor store in town, Red Door Interiors. I was excited to find the right length. I've spent enough money on custom treatments. The panels are Dupioni Silk & they're shimmery. I really like how they look with the wall color.

You can see a little peek of the ceiling. I would really like to paint it something other than white so the crown molding shows up better but I don't know if I'm up for that.  I know Dean isn't. This is the table decorated for fall.

Another pic of the table from a different angle.

This print is by R.C. Davis. He's from Louisiana & all of his work is related to Louisiana. This one has a bowl of gumbo, oysters & all sorts of other good Louisiana food! Sorry about the glare. I obviously need to work on my photography skills. 

This picture was taken from the opposite end of the dining room looking into the foyer.  All the molding is one of my favorite parts of the house.

That's our dining room. Thanks for visiting!

Toodles!
