The Present State Of The Breakfast Room (And The Plan)

I’m so glad to have this room again in usable situation once more, but it surely’s removed from the place it was earlier than being changed into our short-term bed room. Whereas ending different areas, I’ve shopped our home for gadgets that might work in these different areas, and most of these gadgets got here from the breakfast room. So now this room is wanting a bit naked. Right here’s what it seemed like earlier than…

And right here’s what the opposite aspect of the room seemed like…

The art work above the benches was the very first thing I “shopped” for my closet, and people now dangle above my washer and dryer.

And as you may see from the above footage, the curtains from the breakfast/sitting room at the moment are in my closet as properly.

I reupholstered and painted one of many benches for our bed room suite lobby. (This isn’t the place the bench ended up, however this image reveals the bench higher than the newest footage.)

And I even took the plant and the orange and cream throws for our bed room suite. So in spite of everything of that, that is what the breakfast room appears to be like like now. The gallery wall with the TV is the one factor that hasn’t modified…

However the remainder is wanting a bit of unhappy and naked proper now.

However that is the wall that wants probably the most consideration. My wire covers have fallen off the wall, and now there aren’t any benches or the rest to cover them.

And this wall is in determined want of COLOR!

And I’ve lastly determined what I need to do. I need to purchase or construct two matching sideboards to go on these partitions. I extremely doubt that they’ll be pure wooden, however I couldn’t discover what I need, so I simply used these for the mockup. I type of have my coronary heart set on inexperienced sideboards. Now that I’ve used inexperienced fairly prominently within the bed room, I’m type of on a inexperienced kick. After which above them, I need to use my spoon pinwheel artwork on one aspect, after which I need to make one other coordinating piece of art work out of the identical factor (wooden spoons) however in a special sample for the opposite aspect. My spoon pinwheel art work might be my favourite piece of artwork I’ve ever made, and I don’t suppose it’s present placement in the lounge is one of the best place for it. I feel this will likely be significantly better.

UPDATE: I discovered a inexperienced sideboard that can work for the aim of illustrating my imaginative and prescient, however this isn’t fairly the suitable colour or type that I need.

Since I hope to show this room again right into a breakfast room with a eating desk and chairs by the top of this yr, it simply is smart to have sideboards there as a substitute of benches. These benches by no means obtained used like I assumed they’d.

After which, after all, I’ll be looking out for the proper material for these home windows…

This time, I’ll make them correctly. The final ones had been just one width of cloth for every curtain panel. They’re excellent for my closet window, however they had been really means too skimpy for such a big window space on this room. So I’ll double up on material this time. And I feel I additionally need to search for a patterned material — one thing daring, colourful, and enjoyable. I haven’t even began my seek for material but, however I’ve a imaginative and prescient in my thoughts of what I’m searching for. In fact, after I begin a search already realizing what I’m searching for, that usually makes it rather more troublesome to search out the suitable material. However I’m not in a rush. I can take my time with this and get it proper.
