Dining Room

First we painted the accent window wall a rich Barn red, Sherwin Williams-Martha Stewart Signature

We changed out the wrought iron chandelier to an antler chandelier. We used what we had to furnish the Cabbage. Furniture we've collected over the years has found a home here and it's worked out perfectly.

The table is very old. I've had it for over 40 years. It was given to me by a neighbor in Chicago when she moved. It was too heavy. Someone had given it to her years earlier too. The ladder back chairs were bought in Long Grove, IL many years ago.

 The antique corner cupboard, one of my favorite pieces, was bought in Ohio.

The original watercolors are by Jack Schmitt. There are several pieces of his art here.

 The bamboo blinds and suede valances are from K-Mart.

Free books from the Bryson City Library line the window ledge.

A collection of oil lamps, some new, some vintage, an antique wood cheese box all sit on top of the corner cupboard.

Pine cones and wooden apples fill an old wooden bowl on the table.
