Our 2014 Dining and Sitting Rooms ...

One week away from Christmas ... wow!  Where has this season gone?  Before the holiday is over, I wanted to share a little more of our seasonal home.

I haven't shown you our new dining room yet since we moved in a few months ago.  It's very similar in layout to our old dining room ... 


In "this" dining room, we decided to go a tad bit darker on the walls and had it painted Sherwin Williams' "Perfect Greige."  We love the color and how well the white shelves and pieces pop against it!  We plan on adding shadowbox molding in the New Year.


Thankfully our fragile antique sideboard didn't get "injured" in the move!  


I placed the big brother of the reindeer on our great room mantel in here ...


and kept it simple with just a few mercury pieces.


I brought our mirrored chest (that used to be in the bedroom in our old house) in here and, instead of decorating a full-sized tree, we went with a smaller 4ft instead ...


and dressed it in ornaments mainly silver and gold:


Our silver and white dinnerware is from Home Goods: 


I brought out our mirror again this year and used it as the base for our centerpiece.


Love the afternoon sunlight streaming in ...


Now, let's walk on over to the sitting room:


Since this room was already done in a brown, blue and cream palette, I kept the tree in the same theme, but added pops of gold and silver, as well:


I kept our bookcase pretty simple by adding just a hint of holiday greenery and embellishments:


A few more splashes of the season made their way to this side, as well:




Next year, I just might have to make this more of a "coastal" tree!





Cute, reindeer pillows from Hobby Lobby:




Another snap of the afternoon sun ...


Time to go wrap a few presents!

Thanks so much for stopping by,

  6. :) IN a word Becca... beautiful. I luv the blue with brown tree in the sitting room. I always look forward to your installments! Been a BUSY day looking after Baby Winston, he's almost 4 months old and an energetic little bundle. I have had your poet pulled up on my tablet waiting to be able to savor it with my coffee!!!

  22. Your new home looks so pretty dressed in so much white, silver and gold for Christmas! That was a great idea to use shelving to display white dishes in your dining room. I also love how you furnished your sitting room too. Hope you had a great Christmas and made some good memories in your new home.
