changes in the dining room...

Posted by MAKMU ta On Thursday, March 15, 2012


This is a picture of my dining room from many moons ago..  I have been "changing" it for what seems like at least 2 years now.  I am struggling.. I want something unique, I want something that is a reflection of me, I want something I love..

So since this photo was taken I have painted the room Slate from Restoration Hardware, which I love.  I have taken down the mirrors and put up a sunburst mirror, which I was not in love with and I have traded chairs many times.  Now we are having some vintage chairs I found upholstered in vintage linen and I am so excited to say that I am picking up my new artwork today.  I had a pair of pieces custom sized for that wall.  

Keep your fingers crossed that they came out perfect and that I like them on the wall!  Hopefully if they look super cool I will be able to share them with you when they are up.

I cannot believe we are already on Thursday- wishing a nice smooth transition into the weekend!

Dining room love with a casual style

Posted by MAKMU ta On Thursday, January 19, 2012

My dining room, er, nook in my living room, is really in a sorry state so I'm hoping some of these images get my butt in gear and give me some ideas for sprucing up the space!


Gorgeous table - and right by a cozy fire!

So pretty.  I'm considering a round table for our space.  Even though round tables aren't the best use of space (ie: not great for tight spaces), I feel like they are more intimate.

Love the modern pendant hanging from the medallion.

Dark dining...

Posted by MAKMU ta On Thursday, December 22, 2011




I know it's almost Christmas and this is in no way a wish list or a Christmas decorating post...  but I liked it...
The windows and chandelier are to die for!

Unique dining chairs

Posted by MAKMU ta On Saturday, November 12, 2011




How completely wonderful are these dining chairs??  I just love everything about them!  Tomorrow we will be going to Rose Bowl to search out some new dining chairs for my sister.  Our hopes are high that we could find something this amazing. 

I am also excited to pick up the custom lights that I had made from Cleveland Art while I am there!  I cannot wait to put them in the bathroom, they will be like the finishing touch hopefully late next week!

Gorgeous grey storage

Posted by MAKMU ta On Thursday, October 13, 2011


I am going back and forth on my bath details and searching all over for inspiration photos, then I came across this little beauty.  I love the different shape and the little drawers inside.  Very fun!

White and Hydrangea

Posted by MAKMU ta On Monday, June 20, 2011


Good Monday Morning!
I trust you had a good weekend and a well celebrated Father's day.

We had a simi impromptu dinner here last night and I would say that it went fairly smoothly.  I think that we should entertain more often.  I am not sure that this space would put me at ease though!

It is very beautiful but the thought of all of that white scares me a little!

What about you do you entertain?  Do you enjoy it?

Crisp and Clean dining...

Posted by MAKMU ta On Monday, May 09, 2011




I totally fell for these images when the sweet Angela sent them my way for some kitchen nook inspiration!  So clean and really just perfect.  I am pretty sure I would loose my voice from yelling at the kids not to get anything dirty if I took this road, but it would look great for a few days!

Stay tuned for the design ideas for Angela's home coming next week...

Also, this week starting tomorrow I have some wonderful guest posts coming up!
