Spring In The Breakfast Room

When we moved in I only had the accessories that I had out when the house sold, everything else was packed away in boxes and in a storage shed.  Well, we finally have most of the boxes here and I am having so much fun playing with accessories I haven't had to play with for a while.  Time to spruce up the breakfast room table with a little Spring White and a little Gold to go with my new kitchen.


I love the big windows in this space, but it does make it a little difficult to get a picture.  This is where we eat all of our meals and where the family gathers most of the time.





I love this pretty white swan and of course a little gold is always a favorite.  (ok, maybe a lot of gold)  Instead of one runner down the middle I like to use two runners, it just adds a little different texture to the table.  Some greenery and a few candles and we are good to go.


Wall space is limited but I just had to find a spot for my favorite painting.  "Old Man Praying - Giving Thanks".




Not a really big space but we can easily fit 8 around the table and have plenty of room.  I love my new waterproof floors too, so perfect if the grands have an accidental spill.

    I love how you used two table runners. It looks fantastic and eliminates the need for placemats!

    That painting always reminds me of my mom. It was one of her favorites too. Spring is finally on it's way, we all seem to be hungry for it.

    Your idea about using two runnings that way down a table is awesome - I have done two runners before but not like that - I really love that good use of runners and will try it on my kitchen table. My dining table is so long I'd have to make the runners custom. And I haven't sewn in a very long time. I like the texture of yours - looks awesome.

    The Spring Tour will be wonderful. Looking forward to it.

    Hugs. ♥

    Marty, I think we all love the use of two runners rather than placemats...so inviting!

    Your breakfast room looks darling Marty! Love your use of two runners...they add such pretty texture to the table. I also adore your "Old Man Praying" painting along with your other signature pieces.(the gorgeous horse picture and beautiful gold gilded mirror!) Looking forward to the spring home tours this year. Hope you had a relaxing weekend and wishing you a fabulous week ahead!

    Looking good, Marty! I also like how you used two runners on the table, great idea. Won't work with my little round table that turns into an oval, but perfect with yours! Isn't it nice to see all your pretties once again that were packed up for so long?

    As you all know Breakfast is one of the superior meal of the day. It is important to take that meal in a well furnished table. So, as usual a great information. Thanks for sharing.

    What a beautiful breakfast room decorated for Spring. That same picture of the man giving thanks always adorned my Grandmother's dining room. You made me think of her this morning. I hope that you are enjoying your week!!!
