First Look - The Dining Room

I haven't been uploading posts recently as I was busy preparing to and travelling to New York last week - a city where I return with at least three pairs of jeans, shoes and some form of dress or top! Last week I returned with a kitchen sink plug and a sink tidy....  There you have it... things have changed.


Anyway, since having a break from blogging lots of nice changes have been happening in the End of Terrace House.  Mainly our dining room.


This is where the dining room began...






Firstly we had to take down a paneled wall and underneath this wall we discovered some 1950's print wallpaper.  Mr V also discovered a fireplace behind the electric heater so this was uncovered too.    




Only recently we stopped using this room as storage - it's now freshly decorated and ready to be used to dine in - there are still lots of things that need doing to this room - namely laying some flooring, replacing a fire place, fittings some light fittings.  The furniture you see here too will eventually be replaced but for now - here is our gorgeous new dining room.


Colours used to create this space were Skimming Stone by Farrow and Ball on three walls (a warm creamy stone colour) and Adventurer by Little Greene on the feature wall.  


A fire place will be replaced soon but until then, we have filled the space with logs.  We also have a very beautiful voile curtain that lets the light in and keeps the nosy neighbors out.
