the living and dining room is the biggest room in our house so we took our time picking a color. we wanted a greenish grayish type of neutral color and bryan, who is weirdly talented at picking out paint colors, found the exact right thing. while my mom was in town we painted and decorated and we couldn’t be happier with it!
the view from the door. my parent’s old couches, my mawmaws old table and chairs
view toward the door
my sister Karen and i found this at a vintage store for $10!
dining room! i’d like to get some cushy fabric chairs for the ends of the table
my make-shift china cabinet. one day i’ll have a real one!
our family picture wall is in between the two spaces. Karen arranged this for me and she did such a better job than i did! and there’s plenty of room to add pictures over the years
view of the living area from the dining room. i’d like to place a small child’s table and chair set where that black chair is, and find some art to go above it. it would be great to have a little area for zu to color and do homework
so that is our living/dining room! i’m going to paint the hallway the same color and possibly paint the sunroom a lighter shade of this (maybe). i’m so grateful to my mom and sisters for helping me put this together–without them it would’ve taken me months (or all year!) to get everything done!
