Dining Room in French Green

 

 

I wanted to do something to warm up our dining room. Initially I moved our living room rug under the table, having purchased a new one for our living room which I'll share soon. 

 

Here is the before ...

 

This made a huge difference as you can see.

 

 

 

Next I decided to do something different with our French doors. I considered painting and/or curtains. So after scouring Pinterest, I decided to look for a muted green colour to add to the walls.

 

I found this one from Porter's Paints called French Green. It's a very neutral green and gives of a vintage vibe. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I also added a few vintage prints to the walls after discovering at Christmas the doors sit out a fair distance and will easily slide over the pictures. We mostly keep these doors closed so it made sense to utilise this real estate space.  

 

 

The other walls I had repainted pure white but to add some interest I added back my Sharpie Shiplap, but this time I went from floor to ceiling.  

I'm also considered making some cloth slip chair covers, maybe in a stripe pattern. 

 

 

 

Ideally I'd like to get another table that extends. This would be especially good at Christmas when we need the extra table space.  

I also need to get a move on with my Easter decorating!
