Good Morning
I am sitting here drinking my cup of coffee. Just LOVE my morning coffee. We got up late today. I love that about summer.
My oldest son is with my husband at work ... he is going to be 16 next month and is working this summer with his Dad. He is finding out that work isn't so fun! My youngest son has his friend over for the day and I am listening to their chatter & giggling back and forth as they play a fave video game. I am sitting here looking at pretty blogs and websites trying to find some dining room ideas.... life... sometimes sweet memories are just in these ordinary moments of the everyday.
Know what I mean?
I wanted to show you these cute goblets I bought last week at the dollar tree! Yes the dollar tree! aren't they cute? If you live near a dollar tree you should check out the glasses. They have some pretty ones. I bought 8 of them... they look so much like vintage ones I think.
This is my little dining room. It isn't really a formal dining room space... it is just off of my kitchen and is kindof small.
See this cupboard? It was my husband's Grandfather's tool cabinet. I drug it out of his grandparents basement when they sold the house. It was dirty and filled with tools when I got it... but I saw the potential. It will be moving to my bedroom soon. It was only here in this space temporarily until I could get another cupboard that i have been working on finished to move in...
This is her.... the new girl that just moved in. My husband moved it for me last night. My sweetest Mom gave me this cupboard last year when she decided she didn't have a place for it... which was SO nice because I really LOVE it! It is an old bakers cabinet. It was in the process of being stripped by my Stepfather so the part that is white-white is the part that I painted. The doors and drawers are the original paint and weren't stripped yet. I kindof like the chippy paint on the drawers and doors so I thought maybe I might just leave them like that. . but am not sure if I should try to match the paint on the main part or leave it as is? It still needs glass and hardware added. I am just kindof still thinking on what I want to do with it.
What do you think? leave the two tone look? or try to match the paint? or paint the drawers and doors the bright white too? any opinions?? Or maybe I should paint the whole thing a color? I am just not sure what to do with this girl.
I am also a little worried that it might be too big for my small dining room. So anyway, I still need to think on this one...
Well, I hear the kids calling now... I am going to take them out for pizza for lunch. It went from late morning coffee to lunch time since I started & finished this post.. :) Have a great day!!
