Our Dining Room Transformation ~~~~the details~~~

THE CANDLE BASE IS AN OUTDOOR CAST IRON CEILING PORCH FIXTURE.  I TIED A VINTAGE REMNANT OF DELICATE FABRIC AND ANTIQUE CROCHETED WINDOW SHADE PULLS AROUND IT AND  EMBELLISHED IT WITH  A VINTAGE RHINESTONE STAR BURST PIN.  THE MERCURY GLASS CANDLE HOLDER IS ONE OF THE FEW NEW THINGS I PURCHASED.


EVERY ROOM NEEDS A LITTLE SPARKLE!



I APPLIED METALLIC PAINT TO THE FRAME AND TRIED TO KEEP THE DETAILS CENTER STAGE BY HIGHLIGHTING THEM WITH BLUE AND GREEN.






THIS CRACKLY OLD DOOR WAS IN OUR BARN ATTIC  WHEN WE MOVED HERE.  I LOVE THE COLOR AND AGE LINES.  I WISH I COULD HEAR IT'S STORY.


Thanks so much for stopping by!
