Happy Wednesday! <\/p>\n

I have been absent thanks to a hard drive malfunction which had me without a PC for a few days.<\/p>\n

Last year, I worked on this dining room for one of my favourite clients.  I worked on a few rooms in their home including their bedroom<\/a>. <\/p>\n

\"Vanessa<\/a> Photos: Leah Kirin<\/a><\/p>\n

This is how it looked before:<\/p>\n

\"Before\"

And this is how it looked when the woven wood shades (which we did throughout the first floor) were installed. They were using the room as an office when I suggested that we make it into a breakfast\/dining room.  The room has a wonderful view with open space and then the Escarpment. They can still use the table as a desk but this way they and their dinner guests can enjoy the view as well.<\/p>\n

\"before\"

\"Vanessa

The table and chairs are from one of my favourite suppliers, Geovin<\/a>. I just love the base on this table and the simplicity of these chairs \u2013 always a classic.  I have used the floral linen fabric from Tonic Living<\/a> on a few projects because it is so darn pretty. <\/p>\n

\"Vanessa

I had suggested another lantern fixture (just love them over dining tables) but my clients wanted this one which they had seen in this dining room<\/a>. Who am I to argue?<\/p>\n

We chose to not have an area rug in the room because of the room\u2019s shape. A rectangular rug would not have worked and I\u2019m not a fan of round rugs. Plus, it\u2019s much easier for cleaning.<\/p>\n

(PS We had to take the photos from this tight angle between the kitchen cabinetry as the other angle is a lovely view of their neighbour\u2019s brick as you can see in the Before photos.)<\/p>\n

I think Bella approves of the room. What do you think? <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Enjoy the rest of the week!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
