TEA Themed Dining Rooms

Hello Friends!

It has been a while since I have shared with ya'll!

Over the past few months I have tweaked several rooms

in my home and I thought you might enjoy seeing some

of the changes?

My dining room has not changed drastically in the 15 years

since we painted the walls between the gorgeous trims a

Royal Blue.  I love this color soooo much that I have yet

to tire of it.  Thankfully, this room is some what

hidden from the main rooms we live in...I am pretty sure that

is why this girl, who LOVES color, hasn't changed it.

As you will see, I have maintained a *Tea* theme

throughout this room. 

Also, I have incorporated and large quanitity of Blue/White

themed items as well.  This is a good sized room and since it

does not get used a lot, I have taken advantage of all the wall

space that I could...lol

For many, Brass is out, but I decided a few years back to work

with what I had.  I actually like golds so adding pearls, beaded

vines, and single tea cups, I created a unique look for my

chandy!

My hutch sits back in a neat builder built in area and

houses my Johnson Brothers Rose Chintz china as well as

misc other items that are tea and rose themed!

My mom started me on Rose Chintz by giving me several

miss/matched pieces, and over the years I have been able

to aquire at set of at least 8 place settings.

As I look now at my picture, I am thinking of either painting the

inside or papering it...would do YOU think?

As I go around the room, you will see how I have

displayed uniquely, my Tea Pot and Tea Cup collections.

I honestly DO use them and that is why I

love to have them around.  They provide such beautiful

*eye* candy, for this girl who needs it!

One of my favoritest EVER finds is this tea cup

holder.  Snagged for $3 at a yard sale.  I have

added more tea cups now and it shows them off so sweetly.

It also houses a collection of creamers too.

I recently brought added our sofa table to this room and now it

feels just like home in its new place.  It acts more

like a side board and houses more collections, of course!

This beautiful shelf was actually up in my studio and

when I was tweaking it, I decided to move the shelf down into

this room.  I am loving it in its new place.

Lastly, this darling *plant* holder got roped into use

as another way for me to display my tea pots.

I have tried to think outside the box and yet present

a homey sweet place for my family to eat special meals

togther.

I hope this inspires you to use what you have,

show them off and create fun and unqiue ways to

display the things you love!

Thanks for stopping by!
