Impromptu Eclectic Bohemian Dining Space

Hey there! Sorry about so much radio silence lately. I promise I’m still alive and kicking. I’ve been busy tinkering about my home but there hasn’t been much to show. As usual, most of the rooms are in shambles. Because of that, I’ve gotten a little creative with my current living room arrangement.

I’ll keep this short and sweet and just breeze over the big details because tomorrow you’ll see all the nooks and crannies for my Fall home tour!

Since it’s a small space, I pulled this tiny round dining table from the garage. I paired it with the bench I thrifted a while back. Originally I’d put hairpin legs on the bench but swapped them back out for the original legs. I’m itching to switch them back… We’ll see.

I have a total of 3 chairs for the table. My beloved ornate peacock chair and a Bertoia-esque chair I made over last year. It has a pair, but that chair is elsewhere right now awaiting paint touch up. The third chair is off to the side because my front door is right in this space. With only 2 of us home most of the time, there’s no need to have more furniture in the way of the entrance.

I’m thinking I’ll pop in next week with a post detailing all my ideas and plans leading up to why there’s a dining room in my living room and why I’m not using the dining room you’ve all seen before.

Time for MY FAVORITE #thriftscorethursday entries!
