For today’s House Tour, I’m going to show you the dining room which is a work in progress. Of course I’d rather wait to show you the house when everything is the way I have envisioned it but that will probably take years and I think there is value in showing the good and the “not so good” as a reminder that it takes time and money to fill a house and doesn’t happen overnight.
Wall Color is Sherwin Williams Sandy Ridge
We recently bought this amazing hutch that you can read more about here. It’s the nicest piece of furniture we have bought since we’ve been married and I still have no regrets.
Most of the items you see on the bookshelves were thrifted, gifts or diy projects which make for inexpensive décor items.
The wall art was a birthday gift from my mom last year and is from Kirklands, it’s large and is such a statement wall piece that you see when you walk in the front door.
Wooden Planter was a clearance find at Home Depot
Dried Hydrangeas are from a family friend’s yard last fall
Table Runner is from Marshalls that my mom picked up for me – thanks again Mom!
The table was my husband’s breakfast table before we got married, it will stay there until we decide it’s time to upgrade to a real dining room table.
Plans for this room:
1. Add shutter style blinds
2. Purchase a Dining Room Table and Chairs
3. Purchase Large Area Rug
It may be months or years before we get to those plans and that’s ok! I have to constantly remind myself that it takes time, money and patience to fill a home.

I picked up a plain frame without glass or artwork from the thrift store for $1 and painted and distressed a little. Then I purchased this H at Hobby Lobby (50% off of course) to go inside the thrift store frame. This is a customizable and inexpensive project that worked great above the toilet.
