This was actually the second room I painted (after the foyer). BUT, I didn't want to post anything until we changed out the 1980's light fixture....ok the house was built in 1992...bottom line, it needed to be replaced.
I don't really have a "before" except of the fixture...the room was just the same color (flat creamy color) as the rest of the house...this is the view from the kitchen and you can see the older style brass/white fixture.
AFTER: Greg found this fixture on Craigslist for $15.00!! The Kentucky Farm Print is centered between the wall and the door, so it looks off center from this angle....we weren't sure of the decor rules...We are currently looking for a piece of furniture (buffet, credenza) to go under the print to transition our home school room to this space. (hope to update that in the summer)
Below: We are/were collectors of Hull Pottery (in the case) and Hoffman Pottery on top of the case.
When I painted, we had vertical blinds that I knew wouldn't go back up. The "problem" is that these windows are not standard size, so I'm shopping around for window treatments for this and all rooms previously posted :)
But check out the view!!! (i.e. the snow)
Yes, those are fish on the table: Wildcat and Corral...Beta fish...and that's also Hull Pottery (Avocado) salt/pepper shakers and a butter dish in the middle of the table and the tea pitcher on the side table.
Have a fantastic day!
