Formal dining room: This light-drenched dining room in suburban New Jersery was transformed into a serene and comfortable space, with both luxurious elements and livability for families. Moody grasscloth wallpaper lines the entire room above the wainscoting and two aged brass lantern pendants line up with the tall windows. We added linen drapery for softness with stylish wood cube finials to coordinate with the wood of the farmhouse table and chairs. We chose a distressed wood dining table with a soft texture to will hide blemishes over time, as this is a family-family space. We kept the space neutral in tone to both allow for vibrant tablescapes during large family gatherings, and to let the many textures create visual depth.

Green and blue pear harvest Thanksgiving table. I wanted to come up with a scheme to use my Denmark blue and white dishes that could transform to my Christmas Table. Handpainted (fabric paint) chargers, Waverly fabric table cloth and runner. Pier One green napkins. My Thanksgiving dinner is a buffet, so the napkins are placed so everyone can just grab their plate and get in line. Some pears are real, others were imitation, later painted for my Christmas table.

Staged dining room. The room was staged to continue the feel of French country feel utilizing toile linens, topiaries, and nail head trim linen chairs. See the before and after photos of this staged home.
