A Closer Look at the Dining Room

<div style="text-align: center;">Hello Everyone!  </div><div style="text-align: center;">Hope your week is starting off well. </div><div style="text-align: center;"> We had a busy weekend. </div><div style="text-align: center;"> I felt like I was going full speed from Saturday morning until I fell into bed on Sunday night!  </div><div style="text-align: center;">The weather was PERFECT!  </div><div style="text-align: center;">I can't get enough of this kind of weather... </div><div style="text-align: center;">And, in an attempt to get cozier during this cool Fall weather I've changed up my Dining Room again.  Last time you all saw it I was sporting a <a href="http://beauxrevesamore.blogspot.com/2012/09/antler-fun.html" target="_blank">"Bridge into Fall"</a> Look with Aqua, Creams and Browns.  It was actually the first time that I had EVER hung anything onto my dining room walls.  I guess I was afraid of messing up the Faux Finish!  </div><div style="text-align: center;">But once I took the plunge I started thinking of what I really wanted on the walls.  </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiCg7eOyK9Zb__JpmmpF7RUa-eFsucEYA_ozwLP3cx21uyLEXZevmORCk3bAb4YTahkrbQz92V3ZrQvI2UYU5Z28InhgYctiVzuR9kUHqDs210644P4euZIiINIhHT9-D4Dj6YILRvPh5Q/s1600/IMG_5686.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em;

text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj7QXiGIaAsXbPGaj6oKzh0dTsAr5NT9RQ2nhbUzGLPDdupn5MFkWRR-LYX9SiPa3WOCIXs7vdRRJNUGjlppm79R3p60Bg5FQr6sMDzSIJQlrEKbQjr9xRAUdob91bZjJqDQ_jk4002SCo/s1600/IMG_5703.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em;

text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj6IGtfNLuiVDHgL0jf7OXznC-36YfBL19T-vyxie8Y8x5lRaiYimjpatvSbOFOJLZ1NfRfUvgChj31q68_k8M5aPX3GWuN6nm5EjcNn-d5YFvkDhszdEb3IRs89QYkAEMCK84e3tbrD2U/s1600/IMG_5705.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em;

text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhdwG4OPaK87K_E_OZxv3zGU02YfFJGHiOZw415dZizmmbFzMbRmVrRQDrKzEFUMZOVe0YsWBGB_koS0weDPRHa0ppkCBr6lxUpK0WjHSd2jt_lOg8vjlEQH-jEE0q3kFnh7oqkHtJlGzE/s1600/IMG_5682.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em;

text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgGRlG4nSzzPJrur7x3VL7ZUvNj0UV9oU4OzQxkN-1JqROb6EmSse2rtlwKAJ2Mg7uLSiyXHiJR4s28pW1TCbk0-0wYfS3fOOJMnBa88epw5diXkdNaN54zd0WNqKt6-4YmutogHM9bnLg/s1600/IMG_5698.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em;

A Wall?  The problem that I was having with the design was that as you walk into the house you could see too much.  There was no element of surprise.  You know what I'm getting at?  I believe that homes should be designed so that when you walk in the entry you are intrigued and you want to see more!  Also, I didn't want anyone to see my dirty dishes when they walked in the front door!  So, after much sketching and talking and drawing on walls and putting 2X4's down on the ground we came up with these Curved Walls.  As you walk into the house the curved wall on the left keeps you from seeing all the way into the Kitchen.  </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

text-align: center;">We had it faux finished to resemble stone.  It was a very interesting process that they used.  They took drywall mud and coated the walls with a thick troweled coat.  Then they pressed crumbled up Styrofoam into the drywall mud.  They made the lines with string like you would use a chalkline.  When it was dry they poured acid over the wall to dissolve the Styrofoam.  Don't try this at home!  Then they painted the wall with paint and a mixture of the Ralph Lauren paint that has sand in it.  THEN, the glazed over that to get the antiqued finish!  </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhCViNvJnD995xI_t54wpWykhY0vhgTz3o8C9ERKXVsItvKUckS2_eCIoCUYpdSis3pQ_7YdaTbhWzOFQGzL-7_JUEHJMZrV6WsG9OkOqZttALnhdDOJ5GYv_bnxiQRYmBLAhoaW9x5Jqc/s1600/IMG_5690.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em;

text-align: center;">You can see on the top of the photo how they finished off the edge with a stone pediment.  Isn't that what you call it?  Help me out if I have that wrong.  Anyway, I was afraid that I might get tired of the look but I still love it and it really fits with the house.  It is really neutral and most of the time I don't really see it. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">The rug matches our stairway carpet.  I was looking for a 9X12 rug or larger for the space but they were so expensive.  It was much more cost effective to have the rug made and have the border put around it.  </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

text-align: center;"> I ordered my curtains from the Smith Noble catalog.  They are Pinch Pleated Silk lined drapes in a pretty dark sagey olive color.  I wanted a lot of fullness so that they looked like a ballgown.  So, I ordered triple fullness instead of the normal double fullness for the width.  </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

text-align: center;">I would love to have a new/old Chandy in here.  But the budget at the time only allowed for something less expensive.  We chose this fixture to coordinate with the Huge Chandelier that is in the Entryway.  The ceiling is painted Sherwin Williams Palladian Blue.  I love this color!  It is so soft and serene.  </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;
