The Dining Room of My Dreams

I have failed to mention in my recent posts that I have been in "project" mode with my dining room. Last month Danny and I finally bit the bullet and invested in a dining room set that can seat 8 (but really my space only fits 6). Even though we'll be empty nesters next year, part of the purpose was to have a set so we could invite more than one couple at a time for dinner. We believe strongly that our home is a perfect place to minister, reach out, and fellowship with others through hospitality. And no, that wasn't a bunch of bunk to convince my hubby to get us this set!

Before our furniture arrived today, I had my walls painted a light gray and a main accent wall SILVER! Its gorgeous but you can't tell from the pictures. There is some application issues and it will most likely need more work, but for now it will do and depending on what artwork goes on the wall, we might leave it as is.

Pics below are of the set but the window treatments will not arrive for another couple of weeks but they will be white, small chocolate stripe and a green band that is the same fabric as my green chairs. BTW the two end chairs match my grey and silver wall perfectly.



Below are the two lighting fixtures I hope to get to complete the look.

The crystally one is for the entrance

This pendant chandelier for over the table. BLING!
