Before & After: Breakfast area

This has got to be my favorite before and after we have done so far
We've done quite a bit!
I've actually skipped ahead a few posts to put this one up because I just couldn't resist...


Before:


After:
(please excuse the light switches that have not been replaced, yet. 

You might have noticed the addition of the window seat! It was not in the "before" above, and was built by my dad and David this past weekend! So grateful for them putting so much time into it. And, believe it or not, it was all David's idea! 

Stripes! I couldn't resist, ever since I got my first glance at them on pinterest...
And the chairs! Those were a DIY in themselves, I'll be posting the before and after on those later.

Our glass gumball machine cookie jar, which will soon be filled to the brim with gumballs, who could say no to such a tasty pop of color...

Lampshade over the kitchen table!

The "Dave Lund" being referred to in here is actually David's grandfather, I only wish this had a date on it!

  5. Oh, WOW, this is absolutely beautiful. The after photos make me want to transport myself right there with a mug of warm coffee wrapped in my hands, gazing out the window. Way to go!!

    And since you were inspired by Pinterest, I only think it's right you are now pinned yourself :) .
