formal dining room Archives - Farmhouse Chic Blog

This Season I have been decorating with neutrals, natural elements and pops of red! We finally finished painting our formal dining room furniture and I just love how it looks! I will share the full reveal in another post 😉 One day while I was out and about shopping at a local hardware store, I spotted some beautiful cedar garland and snagged a 12 foot bunch!

The smell of the fresh cedar is just sensational! The perfect addition to any Holiday decor! I simply swagged it over my formal table and cut it to my desired length. I rearranged some of my mercury glass pieces, vases and votives, as well as, a few sporadic glittery mini bulbs into the design. I love using candles in my center pieces because it gives it such a romantic, intimate feel!

I added an additional swag of cedar on my buffet, as well as, a fresh boxwood wreath! The beautiful shades of green mix perfectly with the neutral tones and pops of red!

Sharing on these lovely blogs!

Hey you! I bet you’re just as glad it’s Friday as I am 😉

Thanks for stopping by and starting your weekend out with me!

This week I’ve been loving the bold look of black details around the house!

Lately, I’ve been more daring than usual and incorporating black into my decor.

Join me as I share a few of my favorites this week!

1. I’m crazy about this dutch door in this rear entryway. Not to mention the gorgeous exposed brick flooring and fabulous stairs! The door really makes this space for me though! The perfect addition for that cottage look, yet it screams bold with black color!

2. I love the idea of turning a small or unused coat closet into a quaint reading nook! It doesn’t need to be big but it makes a big impact! My kids adore to read so this would be something we would use a lot! I’m still working on my husband to grow keen to the idea, let’s hope he grows fond soon (wink!)

3. This is a beautiful fireplace makeover from The Lettered Cottage! Such a drastic before and after for only $82!! Our fireplace is in need of a little makeover and this project gives me great inspiration and I’m sure it will YOU too!

4. If your home doesn’t don a space for a formal dining room, perhaps you have a wide hallway? Think outside the box a tad and turn that wide hallway into a cozy formal dining room using a narrow table. This is a really unique idea! Add pendant lighting or a large chandelier to tie the space together!
