Rustic Farmhouse Dining Room in Love Note White and a Chandelier Makeover

I loved the Love Note White in the Master Bedroom so much, that I decided to try it out in the Dining Room as well.

Another idea I got from the master bedroom makeover was to change up the chandelier to make it more rustic. So, as with the bedroom chandelier, I painted the dining room one black, and added jute twine to the drop chain. And while I was up there, I cleaned out the shades. Wow, those things collect a lot of dust and little insects.

I really love the contrast of the black shade with the white walls.

I also moved my beloved Cafe de Paris sign back to above the dining table.

And added my DIY framed chicken wire star and a hanging framed chalkboard vase to the dining rom wall. Together with my Fresh Eggs sign and two old weather barometers.


I liked the framed botanicals.

But I like my Cafe sign better.


Some things you just don't mess with.

Like my rustic metal tray and vase of hydrangeas.

On the opposite wall, I brought back the large mirror I rescued from the roadside a few years ago.

Before ...

The hanging lanterns are a new DIY which I'll be sharing shortly.

Here's a quick before photo ...

And now ...

I hope you like my new look Dining Room in Dove White. I know I do!
