With a lot more time on our hands, we finally got around to painting our dining room! It was one of the projects we kept putting off after moving in, as we got busy with the holidays and everyday life – but it was time to wrap things up. I️ didn’t think painting would inspire me so much, but it did – and now I️’m excited to complete the dining room project in full! We ended up going with SW Agreeable Gray because the front living room was already this color and these two rooms open up to one another.

Dining Room Project
I️’m excited to be working with Havenly to come up with the full design for our dining room. I️ first heard about Havenly from Christina from Carolina Charm and bookmarked the site for when we were ready to decorate our new home. We are not planning on buying a new table and chairs at the moment, so I️’m primarily seeking help with wall decor, table decor, window treatments, a new light fixture and possibly a bar cart or buffet. I️ thought I️’d share a photo of how my dining room looks currently along with some of my inspiration photos. My Havenly designer started on my dining room design yesterday and I️ should have a few renderings in a couple of days, so I️’m excited to hear her input!

Dining Room Inspiration






As you might can tell from these dining room inspiration photos, I️’m not 100% sure what my ‘style’ is – the Havenly style quiz I️ took said my #1 result is Coastal, followed by Traditional. I️ definitely lean on the side of Traditional, but I️ also appreciate a bold punch of color or a pattern here and there. I️’m hoping my designer can help me pull this together into a cohesive room design. I️ will definitely share the final details as soon as we settle on the final decor.

Oh there are so many favorites here
We actually eat in our dining room a lot, so I try to keep it fairly casual. At the holidays, I keep the table dressed with place settings.
Yes, we always eat in our dining room too so I️ definitely want it to be functional! 🙂 I️ need to step up my holiday place setting game – that’s one thing I️’ve always wanted to be better at!
I love the drapes so far! Can’t wait to see what you end up with as your final result. Looking forward to the reveal!
Thank you! I️’m excited to see it too!
Oh my gosh, all of these are BEAUTIFUL! So excited for you!
