Hi Stacy, I think those sheets were on one of the Weekly Wednesday Wishlist posts. I did not post those, I think Ann from On Sutton Place did.

Hi Brenda, if you decide to start a blog, let me know.

I just started following you a few months ago. You and I have the exact same buffet! I do some design work myself. I’m in the process of of updating my kitchen and pantry and will redesign my laundry/mud room later this year. I might have to steal your settee idea. I’d love to start my own blog/site and make money so I can buy more things to use for my blog. The hard part is convincing my husband why I need to buy the things I need. lol

A request – sometime ago you shared you favorite sheet set by Better Homes and Gardens. I ordered a set and the fabric is smooth and wrinkle free after laundering. I have sheets that I have paid a great deal more for that are wrinkled from the dryer. Please share the link again as I would like to order another set. Stacy

Love the color palette. I especially like the settee. What a nice addition. I also am a fan of curtains. I change mine quite often. I’m looking for some for my small dining area too. I’m a thrifter and love to look at the thrift store for curtains.

I say that because I have been to estate sales and purchased FOUR curios and have installed my last chandelier, a Christmas present to myself. There is NO MORE ROOM for anything else….which is kind of a good thing. My apartment is 1200 square feet, having moved from a 4500 square foot house. My home is French Country Cottage and I couldn’t be happier with it. I was given two chandeliers and purchased the three others and among them and the dozen plus battery operated candles and angels and candlesticks, my apartment just glows. It’s such a pleasure to flip a switch and turn on all the chandeliers and all the candles are on timers. My apartment complex doesn’t allow real candles, which is just fine with me. I have many items which looks a little busy, but I don’t care. I am super organized and it looks a bit like a store, but I’m downsizing and selling on etsy, a consignment store and have regular garage sales in the good months. I call it “releasing” items as I “shop” my home and decide what to let go. It’s a slow, but methodical process, one that works for me. In the meantime, I enjoy all my treasures. I love to decorate and set the dining room table on a monthly basis with all my china. I have china, napkins, candles, napkin rings, placemats, tablecloths,etc so it’s so much fun to set up different place settings, depending on the time of year. My friends enjoy it and I have an annual holiday party which is always fun.

The orchids are so beautiful. I love orchids, too. I have had trouble trying to keep a real one alive. I found a beautiful faux orchid in a blue chinoiserie pot and I just love it! I am looking forward to seeing your new light fixture. I know it will be lovely. Thanks for sharing your gorgeous dining room with us! I always enjoy seeing the decor changes you make, Yvonne.

You read my mind Diana. I’ve been searching for some pretty plates and soup tureens.
