Suger’s Place: The Dining Room Update

This week I had the opportunity to share my recently finished dining area (ok, so these things are never finished but close enough) over at Nicole’s blog The Builder’s Wife. The new Todd Dining Table from Freedom sat front and centre being all awesome as it does. And I thought I need to let the blog folks know about these developments because someone out there might care.

And here we are.

Here I am.

Begging someone to care about my dining table and chairs. About the rug, I NEEDED to find. The recycled boxes that are coming together as a shelving system. All of it, because it’s our home here now and I want you to like it. Love it actually, but I’ll start with like. Let’s check it out!

Cool right? Want to hear more about this spot? Pop over and check out my interview on Nicole’s blog. And if you have any questions about where stuff came from, let me know in the comments. I’ll have to check my Visa statements… Haha.

Yay! Your dining room looks amazing! I used to have a glass dining table and would get sooo frustrated with the finger prints. Also, the black subway tiles in you kitchen = LOVEEE!

  Thank you Sarah! I’m loving this house, it’s got such a great feel to it. I have big plans for the kitchen, including a gas stove. I cannot live with that electric thing anymore. HA!
  
  And oh yeah, that bit is THE WORST. Hope it’s over for you soon.

Better late than never, but I have the same dining table and am searching high and low for the right rug for it. What is the diameter of your rug and when you are sitting in the chairs, are all the chair legs still on the rug?

  Hey lady, mine is 2 metre’s in diameter from memory. The chairs are half on and half off at this size, but I really didn’t want mine wider than that. There are wider available though.
  
  I got mine from Temple and Webster. I scrolled a few pages and couldn’t see it exactly, but this link should help. https://www.templeandwebster.com.au/filters/Large-Rugs-l6585-c1848914-O82733~200cm+x+300cm-O82738~Round.html
