Dining Room
The dining room was an enigma to us - we'd never had a dining room table! The dining room had always served as an office, as you could see the TV from the desk. So, it was quite an adventure, getting a dining room table. Most of the ones we found that we liked were FAR too expensive, but we persevered and finally found a good one. We re-painted the red walls red (but a much nicer burgundy shade), got a matching carpet, and switched out the chandelier. I bought a brushed nickel curtain rod and silver drape fabric (need to sew them) and sheers, as well as a nickel framed mirror, but I haven't put them up yet. Once I do that, and add a few miscellaneous finishing touches, the room will be DONE. It's probably the room closest to being finished.
