This past summer I had planned on a dining room makeover with my friend Leslie who was coming to visit me as we were getting rid of the nasty carpeting and having hardwood flooring installed, scraping off popcorn ceililng and getting new curtains and light fixture.

Dining Room Chair Debate
While cruising magazines, pinterest, blogs and online shopping for the dining room, the one design element I am just not sure on is the seating. I have two styles of chairs right now that I pretty much love but it’s form vs function between my man and my choices for seating. He is practical, […]
Making over the Dining Room

Dining Room Dreaming
I was browsing good ol’ CL this morning when I saw this for $40: After dinner we’ll be going to take a gander at that light. Hopefully I like it as much in person as I do in the picture. Then I can remove the mother boob. Seeing as our dining room here is smaller […]
