The Dining Room

Read Time:1 Minute, 20 Second

Alright tonight is a bittersweet post for me.  The dining room is done but we won’t get to enjoy it much.  I wish I could take my house with me but we will leave it behind and let someone else enjoy all our hard work!  I am so excited to be moving and having a new house to  decorate/diy/tear up and redo!
So here is what the dining room has looked like pretty much since right after we moved in.  I posted the before and after pictures all together so enjoy the show!

At one point we were going to add in these great corner cabinets that our neighbor had removed from his house. We decided against them eventually because it was going to be a bit of work to get them installed and painted.

Here’s a reminder of the buffet before:

So that’s the dining room!  I would have added a few more elements if we were staying in our house but seeing as we aren’t, this is how it will stay.
The weekend of May 21st/22nd 2011 we will be house hunting and I will take my camera along and let you join me in the search, so look forward to that posting next week!  I’m sorry I haven’t blogged much but we’ve been busy knocking projects off our list.  I hope to have some good news to post soon so stay tuned!!  I really miss everyone and feel like a big blogging slacker right now but please don’t go anywhere, I promise I’ll be back soon!!!!

  1. You are so NOT a slacker! I love the dining room. It looks so much brighter and airier! Hoping you have good news to share soon too! Hugs! Chris

  2. Love the reveal, green is so beautiful in there and it looks wonderful. I don't blame you for not putting in the little extra into the room. It looks awesome! Good luck to you on the new house search and hope to hear good news later in the week(maybe that you've sold this house)
    Have a great week, miss ya BTW!!

  3. Oh Ange! It looks absolutely gorgeous! You guys really did a fantastic job and I know that it will help to sell your house quickly. I feel your pain though, because we finally got our last house all done and then moved…isn't that the way it seems to go? I know you will make the next one just fabulous too! 🙂

  4. Turned out beautiful! I loved it BEFORE, but I can't believe how different, but amazing it turned out AFTER! You are so creative! Just remember, no matter where you go, or what kind of home you live in, keep it open to show Gods love and use your home to serve Jesus by loving others:) We will miss you, my new friend! So thankful for you r blog and fb so I can keep in contact! HUGS! x0x0x0x0x0!

  5. Wow, this turned out beautiful! I love your tall wainscoting and your serene green. Beautiful.

  6. Absolutely beautiful transformation from where you started to where the dining room looks like now. Hat's off to you both!

  7. I love all that white trim, and my guess is all that detail will attract a buyer. If you were keeping the house, I'd say install the cabinets. I really like those, but agree that is too much trouble since you will not get to enjoy it.

    I'm your newest follower too!

  8. Ange, it's gorgeous! I love the new beautiful creamy white trim The table and 'buffet' are amazing! Thank you so much for sharing your transformation in the DIY Project Parade! I'm including a link back in tomorrow's highlights! 😉

    Take care.

  13. Holy cow! I didn't know you were moving! The dining room is superb! The people that move in there are going to LOVE it! So sad you won't be able to enjoy all your hard work! I have missed you and wondered what was up. Glad you are alive and well. Hope the house hunting goes well. 🙂 Thanks for coming by to say, "Hi!" Talk to you soon!

  14. Hey Ange! Thanks so much for sharing this with us this week! You know I love your dining room (and kitchen and your sons room, etc. lol)! Hope to chat with ya soon! Chris

  15. Oh my gosh, oh my gosh! It's fabulous Ange! I mean really fabulous! I'm a little sad that you have to leave it but I know you are going to find a great new home to fix up and make your own. I am not surprised one bit that your house sold as quick as it did with all of the incredible things you've done to it. Can't wait to see pictures of houses that you look at…do we get to help vote on them. 😉 Have fun house hunting sweet friend!

  24. Hello…

    Wowzer…what a AWE INSPIRING transformation! I love your new paneled walls…they look fabulous! What a difference they make to your beautiful dining room!

  26. Hi Ange! Thank you so much for checking out my blog 🙂 I just love that you painted your dining chairs, the set looks so fresh and inviting now.
