Hey, is a "start the car" moment when you get such a good deal on an item that you just want to pay and get out of the store 'cause they might realize they made a mistake on the price? I saw your post over at Under the Table and Dreaming's blog party.

I LOVE IT! What a gorgeous respite! I clicked over to the 2008 post, and man....what a fabulous way to vacation! If that's what farm livin' is, I have no idea what Lisa Douglas had against it!!! :-) (That's a reference to a TV show from the 60's called "Green Acres" just in case you aren't much of a TV watcher!) Just lush and opulent in a very coy way...beautiful!!!<br /><br />Your dining room captures much of the essence of that farmhouse, and I know it must bring a lot of pleasure every time you pass it and are able to think back on your vacation time. Thanks for the tips!<br /><br />Alycia Nicholshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14690591304562176674noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4452607877223303862.post-86957262914237822322014-07-17T00:59:48.685-04:002014-07-17T00:59:48.685-04:00I have always loved your dining room Debbie!I have always loved your dining room Debbie!Pamelahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18283260830637529760noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4452607877223303862.post-68759377496869714972014-07-15T19:06:16.962-04:002014-07-15T19:06:16.962-04:00WOW what a great room I love all the dishes and th...WOW what a great room I love all the dishes and the patterns you have mixed together. <br /><br />Cathy <;)Cathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11412947982153858391noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4452607877223303862.post-48313234877567240482014-07-14T22:19:04.763-04:002014-07-14T22:19:04.763-04:00I really like your dining room- the style of your ...I really like your dining room- the style of your furniture and the blue and white pieces all look perfect together.

I have been so disappointed at recent house tours to see that so many people have redone their homes top-to-bottom in a more modern and colder look. It really is a delight to find like-minded creatives in the blogosphere - I sometimes wonder what took me so look to find this community! Your dining room is quite lovely and I particularly love when your table is set with light linens to balance the beautiful dark woods. So many beautiful details, as well.<br /><br />Lory<br />Designthusiasm.comLORYhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09608860678375412498noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4452607877223303862.post-21192591887595664292014-07-14T10:06:17.946-04:002014-07-14T10:06:17.946-04:00I can see why your dining room is your favorite, D...I can see why your dining room is your favorite, Debbie.

When we moved from our old house to our condo I used our round table from our kitchen in our new dining area. It works out perfectly. Our dining set would never have fit in the condo's dining space. My daughter got my old dining set because she was moving into a house with a dining room and needed one. So that worked out.<a href="http://www.cupersia.com/bright-and-colorful-casual-dining-rooms-with-sophisticated-decors/" rel="nofollow">Dining Room</a>Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06282122254733566009noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4452607877223303862.post-35343057493001431992014-07-13T12:56:51.711-04:002014-07-13T12:56:51.711-04:00I love your warm and pretty home and yes, I too ag...I love your warm and pretty home and yes, I too agree on your charming French country dining room and ALL your blue and white, I so adore the combo!<br />Have a great week ahead.<br />FABBYFABBY'S LIVINGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18027781738558115533noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4452607877223303862.post-26598368608110028012014-07-13T12:02:24.505-04:002014-07-13T12:02:24.505-04:00You have so many lovely elements!
