Restoring a Farmhouse

on August 15, 2011

A fabulous (and fast) before and after happening over at Aesthetic Outburst today. Abbey whipped up their new farmhouse dining room into shape in record time, creating a most desired aesthetic I might add. Love the thrifted lighting and that wool rug at a local (to her) store called Nasco Home not to mention the refinished hardwood flooring!

What a great reminder that no curtains is sometimes better. And those floors - and white walls.

Beautiful.

Thank you all SO much! Yup, the light was a thrift score (quite possibly my best thrift score ever). Our highchair is a Guether brand- we found it on Amazon. It's held up really well to 2 kiddos.
