We moved into our place over 6 months ago, but didn't get to decorating our dining room until this week. I guess the dining room is just one of those rooms that doesn't look that bad if it is sorta empty. Anyway, I decided to take on a little project with my free time and spruce it up a bit! Here is what it looked like before:
|
My decorating buddy (stuffed crust pizza sleepover!) |
|
I just went to Ross and bought a few cute little items for our previously empty shelf, and a mirror! |
|
I made this flower center piece with some flowers from Joann and got these salt & pepper shakers for 80 cents a piece! |
|
Okay, I know this is SUPER old lady of me... but I have a weird "bird fetish", so I stuck two love birds in some marbles in a heart basket. So sue me! |
|
Also made this arrangement from Joann flowers and pebbles. |
|
Stick some $1 potpourri and some marbles in a dish and call it a day! |
|
I decided last minute to include this frame, so I had to scramble to find pictures I already had printed up. Just some pics of family and Hawaii. |
|
My sister gave me this picture/mirror. |
|
Picture I took of Haight/Ashbury: one of my favorite places! |
|
Someone is enjoying the new decor.... |
|
I needed some art work for the room, but didn't find anything I liked or anything cheap enough, so I just painted this for the room! Yeah, I don't know why I am all into birds at the moment?! |
|
We still have to keep our bikes in the dining room because we really don't have many other places to put them. That's okay though, they kinda add to the room! :P
Well, hope you enjoyed my dining room makeover! It feels a bit more homey now that it isn't empty. |
Ashleigh! I love that painting!!!!
