The Lettered Cottage is having a favorite room redo party.
I thought I would share my eat-in area.
It was a train wreck.
But then again, 3 kids in 5 years will do that to you.
For a long time it was survival mode everyday just trying to keep up the the tornado my children created. It wasn't until this last year I have been able to step back, take a look at my surrounds, and really start to put the effort and energy into them that I want to.
Tah dah! Just new paint,a painted table, beadboard wall paper,molding and a mirror, new space!
Next, I have to get those cabinets done....eventually....
And don't forget the 25th for the first new project of the new year party!
And Stop by Funky Junk Interiors for another great party!!

I love the bench and the mirror--I would enjoy a cup of coffee there every day.
It looks great..I love the fact that you put that mirror above the table its so cute!
Jen, It is beautiful! I love the mirror and the wooden basket on the table with the number on the side! Awesome!!
I didn't realize you had 3 kids in 5 years...we also have 3 kids in 4 years...isn't it great to see a little light at the end of the tunnel and tackle new projects :)
I am so happy to have met you here in blog land!

Wow, isn't it amazing how small changes can have such a big impact? I love the way it turned out.
Fabulous! I think you've managed to combine absolutely everything that I love.
I want to feel like that when I look in my own kitchen. Guess I'll add this wish to my 2010 list!
Happy New Year!

I love the re-do! The mirror is fantastic and so is the table! Amazing what a few little changes can make!
Girl, I love this new room. It looks great. The table is awesome, the mirror is beautiful and I even love the little crate with number on the table. Excellent!!
Love it!! I have my table painted ... but haven't been brave enough for my chairs, yet ... they're slipcovered for now ... Great job!
Gorgeous! May I ask what the wallcolor is?
This is a perfect little corner. I love having "real" seats in the kitchen and the bench is wonderful. The mirror is pretty fabulous too.
What a great space you've created for your family!
It's gorgeous! Looks like a photo from a magazine. Great job! :-)
Beautiful redo! Encouraging to know that these train wreck days in my house soon shall pass, too.
