With the
dining room floor now installed, I am giving myself permission to think about the dining room as a space that will actually be useful to us in the nearish future. That means figuring out the fun stuff like furniture, art, finishes, etc. I looked through my Pinterest folder of dining rooms recently and discovered that I am gravitating toward warm wood (hello, exposed log walls), crisp white and black accents. Since our dining room is basically a pass-through room in the center of the house, I want a space that isn't too cluttered or busy. Maybe I'm turning into a shaker in my old age.
I found this on Pinterest, and the original source is uncredited. Anyone know?
These are making me pine EVEN more for a real dining room. Possibly with a chalk wall.
ReplyDeleteI love all of these muchly.
ReplyDeletedon't know the source but i have the Panton chairs of that picture and they're soooo confortabl. Also, plastic: easy to clean, esp. with toddlers around
ReplyDelete(mine are replicas -or replicae? whatever- but what the heck, who's counting?)
I have always loved the Panton chairs. I don't know if I could do a whole set, but I have thought about doing one on each end or something.
DeleteI want to have dinner in every one of these spaces. I love the minimalist look when it's cozy and warm like these. PS - I ordered the Tabouret chairs on Overstock like the stools you have. They are fantastic! Comfortable, beautiful and going to be easy to clean kid messes. :)
ReplyDeleteOh yay! They are surprisingly good quality, right? I thought about them for our dining room, but with the stools in the kitchen that would probably be overkill.
