Mr. B and I started 2014 by feverishly house hunting. Though we saw lots of great options, we
ultimately put it on hold for a few months, as we felt not quite ready to pull
the trigger.
But that hasn’t stopped me from obsessively mentally decorating our
future home- when we get there, I want to be ready! I’m particularly excited at the idea of one
day having a dining room. Right now, our counter doubles as a bar, and when
guests are over, I pull out a folding table. It’s fun, but crowded. The idea of an entire
permanent space devoted to entertaining seems awesome.
Besides, I’m a novice at decorating, and a dining room seems like an
easy first project to tackle. There’s not that
much furniture and what you need is pretty straightforward: table, chairs,
lighting fixture, place to store your china.
I know I want a very traditional, formal dining room, and very “done”
looking walls- patterned wallpaper or a decisive color, and some molding. Here’s my current inspiration for my way off
in the future home:
I'm really into the colors in this dining room- they feel fresh and light, yet are grounded by that rich, classic wood table. Definitely some real inspiration here.
I love, love, love this traditional, almost colonial scene here. I love a round (or square!) table, and I'm obsessed with the transferware pitcher.
I love this wallpaper with this molding. It's so finished looking. These were some of my wedding colors, so maybe I'm biased there.
Finally, I like the idea of a hutch- great for displaying more transferware to match that pitcher!
