Before & After {Fern Tree Dining}

I am so excited to show off the progress in my client’s formal dining room.  The dining room is just off of the main sitting room as you walk in the front door and I am so happy that we decided to go bold with Kelly Wearstler’s Fern Tree wall paper from Schumacher!

BEFORE:  My client’s had just moved into the house and knew that they were ready to update their existing furniture and lighting and create a fabulous formal dining space. Since the room is off the main kitchen and visible from the moment you walk into the house,  it was time to say good bye to all of the existing pieces and start over!

DURING / ALMOST AFTER: I guess we can’t say this is a true before and after, but we are almost there! The Fern Tree wallpaper was installed last week and it looks GORGEOUS and commands your attention for sure! We are waiting on the stunning carved wood dining table and custom velvet dining chairs to arrive in a few weeks. And with a few more simple yet glitzy touches the formal dining will be absolutely stunning.  You can get a good feel for the direction of the room with this overall look image too.

And as if the overall look isn’t fabulous enough, the small details that make it complete are pretty fabulous in their own right!  I am so in love with the perfectly lined up covers on the light switch and plug plates. Stay tuned, I can’t wait to share more details of each element as the room comes together!
