Sneak Peek of Dining Room...

I promised a sneak peek of my dining room...

I still have to bring in the fresh greens, fruit, flowers and make my centerpiece and decorate my chandelier but since that is going to take all day, I decided to give you a little sneak peek of what's going on in there....

It's funny, I bought that painting for my family room but loved it in this room too.  During Christmas, it is going to stay in here.  I love the old gold frame. After Christmas I may move it back to the family room and paint the mirror I showed you in an earlier post.  I bought those Barbara Barry lamps for the living room but liked them here with the painting.   That's what I love about changing things...everything old is new again!   Do you like how I channeled Mary McDonald with the peacock feathers and peacocks?  Mine probably came from India too, only I didn't get to go along for the shopping spree! What do you think?  Do you like?

I typically make arrangements for my buffet but

 I loved this bright fuchsia Christmas cactus and decided it added 

 the perfect accent to the room.  

Here is a bigger peek of that wall...

Once I get it all decorated, I will show you the entire room...




Since it is Christmas, I have a little give away for you!
