Dining Room

We've been here almost six months and have yet to get a dinning room table! Our dinning room has sat empty this whole time. I was waiting for spring/summer to go out garage saleing and find one that way. Our dear friends here, Philip and Leah, offered one evening to loan us their table for a couple years!! They are living in married housing while he is in school for a few years and had to downsize and put quite a few things in storage while there. They just delivered it this past week, along with a free treadmill. =) Philip delivers exercise machines to people in their homes and some of these rich folk can't be inconvenienced with selling used exercise equipment. So often they will just ask him to "take it away". =) This one is only a few years old and works great!! So back to the table - the chairs had been covered in a country plaid that Leah described as "hideous" and gave me free reign to recover them. Here is what I picked out




Who knew it was so much cheaper to make your own curtains??!! All the home interior fabrics were half off at Joannes so I bought some material while I was there to make some curtains. They were $18 total.



Too much puddling? Does it even work on carpet?


I want to get these to sit on the table...



...and this runner


Our new home is starting to feel like home!
