DOWNSTAIRS LIVING AND DINING

Finally got around to getting the new window treatments up (Simple Life Flax Antique White Ruffled Curtains) after waiting weeks for our business containers to be  delivered from the New York docks.  Bad weather caused so many delays.  No new furniture was needed as kids had enough hand-me-downs to overload me plus what I had in storage.  I also found several items in the attic that I had forgotten about.  Some of the furniture is from trips to China made several years ago.  We would shop and have the antique Chinese pieces put on containers along with our merchandise.  The coffee table is actually an old Chinese bed.  The older pieces are unique and none of them have any nails.  Nearly all of the oriental vases are gifts from vendors and friends in China. 



 

After arranging and rearranging we are finally happy with the end results. It is a good mixture of many cultures. Not too busy but busy enough to satisfy my over indulgence in the shabby look and hanging onto old stuff. 

 

WHAT WILL I FIND NEXT IN THE ATTIC  ?
