Dining Room Reveal

It's been a busy, busy time but things are finally slowing down for us.

I've shown in my last posting our living room, we added 

curtains for a little more privacy

I need to do something though with the bottom of the curtains, I like curtains to touch the floor but the end of those are a scalloped finish  so not sure how I can change them, maybe add fabric to the top, hmm? That's another post.

So the dining room space, which is off the living room.

I will start with before and the after:

Before:

Beautiful hardwoods that just needed freshening up, dirty ceiling and a light fixture that was ripped out.

After:

Smooth clean white ceilings with a new light fixture.

I want to make a tablecloth out of the drop cloths you can get at the home improvement stores and make a runner for the buffet we're using as a TV stand as well. (winter project)

Before:

This is during the renovations. UGH! Every time I see the ceiling before it grosses me how dirty it was and shiny it was. 

After:

Before:

After:

So that's our dining room. 

Our table used to open for an eight seat dinner party, but we had to remove the center piece. There's room to extend it when we need to but for everyday it's best to have it as a six seat.

Next posting will be bathrooms. 

We're so close to being done with the inside, still need to finish the guest suite downstairs, 

our bedroom needs to be touched up and some other little projects.

Thanks for visiting!
