Dining Room Before - note the stunning coordination of the wallpaper and curtains...yes, they're the exact same print...
Dining Room After - note the stunning look of the stained dining table and corner table. Thank you, thank you.
Now, try to relax and don't let your intense desire to see the rest of our house take over your daily responsibilities. We'll get to those pictures soon enough. :)
The curtains look great!
ReplyDeleteyour house looks great.I am really looking forward to come and visit you next spring.
ReplyDeleteAh you didn't like the whole matchy-matchy? I love your new dinning room. I can't wait until I have my own home and I can re-do the entire house. Congrats!
ReplyDeleteOh Linds, it looks great! Good work. It's so chic!! :o)
ReplyDeleteI'm so impressed! Way to go Alders!
ReplyDeleteHey Linds! I really like reading your blog! It's fun to see what you guys are up to. Sorry we don't keep in better touch. Your house looks like it's coming along great! Chris and I are very much looking forward to the day we'll have our own home. It might have to wait until we make it back to the States-side, but we'll see. Anyway, I can't believe how old McKenzie's looking!!! She's already 4 1/2 isn't she? Wow!!! Time flies!
ReplyDeleteI love what you've done!! I am in the middle of having four or five projects/rooms almost done but not being able to finish them. I'm so impressed you jumped that hump!! It looks GREAT!!
ReplyDeleteI'm impressed! (And I'm speaking from personal experience.) We've just been finishing up our living and dining room, and it's been too crazy. The previous owner of the house made her curtains out of what Jeff lovingly called "old nylons" and then she decided to paint AROUND the old nylons, so when we went to replace them, we discovered huge spots on the wall that were a different color... So fun. I'm going to post new pictures on my blog as soon as we finish completely, but unluckily (or luckily) Jeff was so eager to rip down the old curtains, I didn't think to take any "before" pictures.
ReplyDeleteSorry that was so long, but anyway, good job!
Linds, it looks wonderful! I love the colors. Very, very nice. Isn't fun to finsh something and then stand back and love what you have finshed. I am so excited to see what you guys do with the rest of the house. :)
ReplyDeleteOkay... somehow I missed the word "before" in the "dining room before" part and I about freaked. I thought the pictures of the before part were what you had actually DONE to the dining room. And you were all pointing out how the wallpaper and curtains matched and I thought you were so proud of that fact. I almost threw up on my shoes. Bless you for NOT decorating like that. Now that I understand how the before/after thing works, I'm happy to say that I love it! It looks amazing!
ReplyDeleteWow! It looks great! What fun!
ReplyDeleteI love to look at these pictures! I hadn't seen the 'before' pics before.....you worked a miracle! Good job!! miss you
ReplyDeleteIt takes a lot of vision to see the room you paid for and know the potential it has. Excellent job! I might have to fly you out to wherever we end up living and have you do my house! I love reading your blog. Your writing is amazing. We miss everyone in Durham. Take care. --Brenna
ReplyDeleteOh my WORD. Lindsay! What an amazing transformation - it looks BEAUTIFUL!
ReplyDeleteOkay, that is by far the most radical change I've ever seen. I love how you've taken something so hysterically funny and turned it into something out of a magazine. I really should have you come do my house! I look forward to seeing what you have in store for the rest of the house. Oh, and I love how great your "new" table looks in it.
