Dining Room Study

When I did a search on English Dining, 

this beautiful image appeared and I went aweeeeeeee.

The formality is just up my alley.

So it's worth staring at and studying.

I tried like crazy to go less formal when looking at Dining room furniture.  Sometimes I like the shabby chic and sometimes I crave formality because I grew up in a very modest house with metal kitchen chairs in the Kitchen and dined for years in front of a water air conditioner blowing on my back.  

Formal dining was unheard of in my childhood home.  

We didn't eat like monkeys, but exercised some table manners.

STILL we were very very casual.

I have dreamed and desired something else more formal.  

God has been good to me and allowed Dining rooms in many of the places we have lived. 

This Dining room is LOVELY! 

May you have a blessed day and week-end,

~I LOVE THIS~

Think I am entering into a BLUE PHASE.

What makes this room charming?

Decorated two toned ceiling.
Round Dining room table to dine at, 
and have conversation with others 
within a circular pattern.

Intimate.

Blue is a calming color in which studies have shown that it's a less stimulating color for promoting aggression.
Perhaps a taming effect would take place 
and one wouldn't be so aggressive at eating.

The light blue buffalo-checked pattern in the draperies echoes the blue upholstery in the padded chairs as well as to echo the blue from the carpet and the walls.

Padded dining room chairs would help cushion 
the body making the sitting easier on the body.

Natural lighting streams from the window 
as all the white walls, trim and fireplace colors bounces lighting.

Hard wood floors are tastefully covered 
by the area rug making it a gentler scoot to the table with more ease.
