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.

Beautiful - I love how different it looks even though all the furniture pieces are the same!
ReplyDeleteRene, that is a great transformation. She has my fabric in my dining room on those pillows in the chairs. Love them.
ReplyDeleteWow, what great changes. The room is so warm and welcoming and more dramatic now. The art layout is genius!
ReplyDeleteBoth 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!

What a stunning before and after! I absolutely LOVE the wing chairs with the big luscious ruffles at the bottom,... and the new color of the hutch... this is an amazing change... love the gingham curtains too!

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! :)
ReplyDeleteWow, 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!

What a great transformation! The color used on the china cabinet is perfect and I adore the large silhouettes!
ReplyDeleteThe "after" looks terrific. I love the corner vignette.
ReplyDelete*** I cana't get OVER the HUGE change~ it's amaazing what was done with paint and the patience to take time & respect the basics that were there, but totally UPDATE the accents!!! ABSOLUTELY CHARMING/EVEN "STUNNING" "AFTERs"!!!!
ReplyDeleteSO GLAD this was SHARED with us! THANK YOU!!!!
