Apartment Tour: Dining Room

Fridays this summer I will be linking up to do Kelly's Korner's Show Us Your Home series (see schedule at bottom of post). Today: the dining room!

I don't have a separate dining room but I do have a little dining area. Excuse the bad lighting-June gloom in the mornings and then I am not home from work until it is dark out.
I have the table folded down on one side so it fits better. When I have people over I put the side up so it's round. You can see a better photo here



The table is a floor sample from Crate & Barrel that was on super sale. Unfortunately they only had one blue chair on sale so I got three white and one blue (hey I didn't want to pay full price for more blue chairs!). I am still searching for a matching blue chair! The reversible placemats are from the Preppy Princess


I have this lamp sitting on the table for now. Not sure if it will stay


I absolutely love these prints from Etsy


This orange thing is a thrift store find. I bought navy paint but decided to leave it orange for now. My last apartment really needed a big piece of furniture for the corner of my living room. Thankfully this fits in my new place.




I can't remember where the anchor print is from. The extra white chair sits in the corner unless I have people over


I found this piece at a garage sale. I call it shabby chic nautical. I use it as a sort of bar type thing. On top I have coasters, drink umbrellas, etc. In the monogrammed basket from Whitney Caroline Designs I have napkins, placemats, etc. I haven't hung up the welcome aboard sign yet


Here's the schedule for the link up:
June 29 - Show us kids rooms
July 6 - Show us your bathrooms
