My Dining Room

I wanted to start sharing my house with you. It's little but it's home to us and we love it! Here is our dining room. We bought the table/chairs and buffet from Pottery Barn Outlet after we bought the house. Yes, we are lucky and live less than 15 minutes away from a Pottery Barn, William Sonoma, and West Elm Outlet....it's dangerous to say the least! The table and buffet are from the Montego collection and we got a great deal!! I don't think PB sells them anymore though...boo! I'm not a HUGE fan of the light fixture that currently hangs in there...it came with the house and we have never changed it. I may paint it black to give it a wrought iron look...or we may just buy a new one soon. As you can see, we have a pretty bay window that looks out into the back yard of the house.

I got the mirror over the buffet at World Market and the candle scones were 1/2 price at Hobby Lobby. I try to always have fresh flowers as part of my "table scape".

Right now, we have a "spring" type set up going on. I figured this was the easiest thing to do since the baby would be here so soon. I have a glass atrium filled with vintage books, a white bird, and a fake succulent plant. I also have a vintage white milk glass vase filled with some fresh flowers.
I love our dragonfly stained glass window that hangs on the bay window. It was a wedding gift from my mom's college roommate. She knows that we LOVE dragonflies.
For the art on the walls, we have a vintage style subway sign from Z Gallerie,
some DIY art of the old NYC subway system,
and three pictures from our trip to Thailand. I periodically change these pictures out.
So there you have it....our dining room :)
