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!

Lately I have been seriously considering painting some of my interior doors a light grey.
This is hard because my walls all have a color on them so I would definitely have to change that to a cleaner color a light creamy white or a slightly darker grey. I just love this look and am completely afraid to commit to it..
What about you? Do you have color on your doors? Do you love it if you do?

Okay so here is my question.. do you like the cabinets in a greige with white walls or do you like the walls in
grey with white cabinets? This is a dilemma, because I really like the color on the cabinets but it is a complete commitment. While if you paint the walls you can change that a bit more easily.
I loved the color on the cabinets in the top picture, Farrow and Ball of course!
What do you think?
