I always say that anyone can put a bed in a bedroom. Everyone knows that a dining room needs a dining table. But the basics just aren’t enough if you want an amazing room. If you want to really WOW, you’ve got to go for some extra oomph. Something flashy, something unexpected, something more.
For instance, let’s take a look at this dining room. It had a pretty chandelier and a substantial mirror. The table was the right scale for the room, the chairs seems nice. There’s a rug. Whatever. It’s fine.
Which is fine.
If you are aiming for fine.
But who wants fine when WOW is right around the corner?
WOWWWWWW. Wowzeroni. Wowy McWowwerPants. Wiggety-wiggety-WOW.
The ceiling (the ceiling!) was made by cutting pieces of wood cut to mimic the pattern in the wallpaper. But even you cropped it out, this room would still be a jaw-dropper. So stunning.
From Jessie aka The Design Daredevil who knows how to deliver the WOW.
