Tessa's Pretty Dining Room

I had another post planned for today, but yesterday when Tessa posted her re-styled dining room, a change of plans was in order.

Many of you may have already seen this either on Tessa's blog, Nine & Sixteen, or on Holly's blog, but just in the off chance that you missed it, here it is.  A while back, Tessa asked Holly for help with her dining room and together they came up with a beautiful plan.

  10. Both ways are beautiful but the "after" is much more warm and inviting! I love the changes and the fact that the same furniture was used. Such a pretty room!

  13. A lovely transformation, and an excellent example of reusing and repurposing what you already have into something new and fresh. Try it, move it....you can always move it back. Great job! :)

  14. Wow, that was truly inspiring. I have not finished redecorating my kitchen dining area after painting the walls white back in November. You gave me some great ideas here!
