This is it, the big reveal from the One Room Challenge!
The rain stopped long enough to let me finish a couple things
and enjoy our first al fresco dinner for Mother's day!
And it was just I dreamed it would be:
The new table is huge,
I set it up for 6, but 8 will fit easily.
probably 3 people can sit there for a meal, especially children!
The table has great rustic charm, super sturdy
and made from old deck parts!
The colors of the seating area: indigo, turquoise/aqua and green are perfect with the eating area
The wall light stands out on the freshly repainted walls.
The string lights turned out beautifully,
the second row of light went faster than the first!
And at night, it gives the perfect glow for a meal,
or lounging on the couch.
I would say that overall, it was a great success,
even if not everything was done,
too much rain, not enough time!

Love the transformation! What a nice spot to enjoy the great outdoors. I love the twinkle light and the shot of it at night.
ReplyDeletethank you, dining there has been a very pleasant experience, I wish we could use it more often...
DeleteYour table is so beautiful! I love the way you have a bench on one side and chairs on the other. I've been leaning towards function like that for a while now. Job well done!
ReplyDeleteThank you Leslie! I must say I am very pleased with the table.
