How do you prefer to start off your Monday mornings? Nice and easy? Do you eaaaaase on into the week with a warm mug of tea and a crossword puzzle? Or are you the race-out-the-door-with-determination-and-a-Red-Bull type?
This dining room makeover is the first type. (Um … if it was a person). Calm. Simple. Muted colors, natural light. Not too dramatic, not in your face, just a lovely, gentle caress for your eyeballz. An ideal spot for doing my crossword puzzle.
The major changes are new hardwood floors and the paint color, which make the perfect backdrop for Jaime’s vintage French country style. You can see more on her blog So Much Better With Age.

So, basically, it’s perfect! xD
