Dinning Room with Bling

 Happy Monday! I want to say "Thank you" to each and everyone of you who so kindly left us a note on our kitchen post. You all are so sweet to us!
This Monday we want to share with you our dinning room.Below are the before pictures, you will see that we removed two of the can-lights the ones in front and had a new electrical junction box installed in the ceiling so we could hang a chandelier.

 Custom trim was added around the windows and doorway that leads to the kitchen, also the rug was removed and new flooring was installed.

 In our last post I shared with you my love for brick and that we had used it in several rooms in our home. Another place besides the kitchen was in the dinning room. We had a brick mason install a brick wall as our focal wall.. the brick we used was 1/2 brick paver's.

 In this picture the cement was still wet so the brick looked darker. I couldn't believe how many choices there are for brick, it was crazy with choices.

 And Wall-La its done! We decided not to use the shutters that were in the dinning room after the windows were trimmed out the shutters no longer fit. I love roman shades so decided to have fabric shades made.

 The door to the left leads to the kitchen. I was able to use my mirror and buffet table I had bought for our previous home. We purchased a new dinning table and chandelier.

 The roman shades are made of  a floral linen toile. The grandfather clock fit well in this little corner.

 Here's the door way into the kitchen. The brick wall in the kitchen flows into the brick wall into the dinning room. Oil painting (Private Reserve) by Stiltz

 Buffet table and dinning table. They are from different designers, but work well together.

 The brick wall gives the house a kind of lofty cottage look I think...

 The dinning room table was handcrafted by Simply Amish from the  Aspen Trestle collection made in the USA.. I love the Arts & Crafts feel of the table and chairs. The chairs are so easy and comfortable to sit in.

 A closer look at the roman shades.

 The chandelier we choose was designed by Schonbek and is from the Madison Collection with handcut crystal made in the USA. I really love the mix of metal and crystal, its like wearing blue jeans with your diamond earrings. It gives our dinning room a touch of bling the ( diamond earrings) and the brick wall (blue jeans). I am a jean girl who always has her diamond earrings on...Yep that's me! bluejeans and diamonds. So why not have my dinning room comfortable and blingy LOL

 From our living room the dinning room is visible in our open floor plan.

 A little peek of the living room, next week I will show you all of the living room.

 Since our last post of the kitchen we found these cute little bar stools. They tuck ever so nicely under the counter. Bar stools are from Pier One.

 During all my picture taking Shiloh hardly budged from his bed, he was a tired baby after his bath. Shiloh brought his chewy to bed with him, how cute is he ( we are such proud puppy parents) love him!

 Nite, Nite baby...

Aw such a sweet face, Shiloh was plum tuckered out!

Have a safe and happy week everyone.
