Entryway table

 

Entryway table from Kirklands. 
Honestly, everything in this picture is from Kirklands except for the Bible.


I knew I wanted this table the moment I saw it! I love the rustic edges.


      I think the knobs and the white/burlap drawers are really sweet and feminine. Love! Our previous entryway table went behind the sofa in the living room where we displayed more pictures of family and friends. We love "memory lane" (pictures).


    
   In front of the table/behind front door. One of my hubby's church friends many years ago made the framed art that says, "Lord bless this home" along with a Bible verse. As for the wreath, I have a blog about it HERE

Dining room updates

 
     Our dining room as been a slow project. We went several years with it being an empty space, then we had only a table; no chairs. Finally, we bought a new light fixture and rug. I'm proud to say our dining room is complete. The only remaining large projects are installing arch molding and replacing our french doors, but that's on the end of our long list of house projects.



I really love the picture frame I purchased from Target.


I haven't filled the three frames yet.


We get lots of sun during the day. This is why we chose black out curtains. They aren't the prettiest curtains but they keep the summer heat out in the afternoon. I usually open them after 3pm when we get lots of shade. <3

   
Our new light fixture from Lowe's and our new rug from Kirklands. 

 

     This is the view from our Kitchen doors. For me, this picture captures the truest colors of our dining room.


My dad teaching hubby how to install the lights and do the wiring.  



     I wonder how long it will take before one of our three dogs has an accident on our new rug lol. I've  mentally prepared myself  and will not freak out. Our main perpetrator has gotten better, or shall I say, mommy has gotten better at letting her out when she notifies me lol.
