After I wrote my 2026 Grasp Checklist of House Targets submit final week, I didn’t embody latest photos of the breakfast room as a result of Matt and I had been utilizing that room as our momentary bed room for over a yr whereas I labored on our master suite suite all final yr. Even after we moved into our new bed room final week, the adjustable mattress base was nonetheless within the breakfast room. So with a ton of assist from my mother, we obtained the mattress moved out and put again collectively as a sitting room, which is how the room was getting used earlier than we made it our momentary bed room.
I’m so glad to have this room again in usable situation once more, nevertheless it’s removed from the place it was earlier than being become our momentary bed room. Whereas ending different areas, I’ve shopped our home for gadgets that will work in these different areas, and most of these gadgets got here from the breakfast room. So now this room is trying a bit naked. Right here’s what it seemed like earlier than…

And right here’s what the opposite facet of the room seemed like…


The paintings above the benches was the very first thing I “shopped” for my closet, and people now dangle above my washer and dryer.




And as you’ll be able to see from the above photos, the curtains from the breakfast/sitting room at the moment are in my closet as nicely.


I reupholstered and painted one of many benches for our bed room suite lobby. (This isn’t the place the bench ended up, however this image reveals the bench higher than the newest photos.)


And I even took the plant and the orange and cream throws for our bed room suite. So in any case of that, that is what the breakfast room appears to be like like now. The gallery wall with the TV is the one factor that hasn’t modified…


However the remaining is trying slightly unhappy and naked proper now.


However that is the wall that wants essentially the most consideration. My wire covers have fallen off the wall, and now there are not any benches or the rest to cover them.


And this wall is in determined want of COLOR!


And I’ve lastly determined what I wish to do. I wish to purchase or construct two matching sideboards to go on these partitions. I extremely doubt that they’ll be pure wooden, however I couldn’t discover what I would like, so I simply used these for the mockup. I type of have my coronary heart set on inexperienced sideboards. Now that I’ve used inexperienced fairly prominently within the bed room, I’m type of on a inexperienced kick. After which above them, I wish to use my spoon pinwheel artwork on one facet, after which I wish to make one other coordinating piece of paintings out of the identical factor (wooden spoons) however in a distinct sample for the opposite facet. My spoon pinwheel paintings might be my favourite piece of artwork I’ve ever made, and I don’t assume it’s present placement in the lounge is the very best place for it. I feel this will likely be a lot better.


UPDATE: I discovered a inexperienced sideboard that can work for the aim of illustrating my imaginative and prescient, however this isn’t fairly the correct shade or type that I would like.


Since I hope to show this room again right into a breakfast room with a eating desk and chairs by the top of this yr, it simply is sensible to have sideboards there as an alternative of benches. These benches by no means obtained used like I believed they might.
After which, in fact, I’ll be looking out for the proper material for these home windows…


This time, I’ll make them correctly. The final ones have been just one width of material for every curtain panel. They’re good for my closet window, however they have been really method too skimpy for such a big window space on this room. So I’ll double up on material this time. And I feel I additionally wish to search for a patterned material — one thing daring, colourful, and enjoyable. I haven’t even began my seek for material but, however I’ve a imaginative and prescient in my thoughts of what I’m in search of. After all, after I begin a search already figuring out what I’m in search of, that always makes it rather more tough to seek out the correct material. However I’m not in a rush. I can take my time with this and get it proper.
When the time comes to show this room into an precise eating space, I’ll even be swapping out the sunshine fixture. This gentle fixture is ok for a sitting room, however I’ll desire a chandelier of some type to go above a eating desk. However once more, I’ve loads of time to seek out simply the correct gentle fixture for the room. Earlier than any of that may occur, I’ll must discover a place for Matt’s recliner the place he can spend a couple of hours every day sitting comfortably whereas watching TV. I do not know the place that may go, so till I determine that out, this room wants to remain a sitting room. However I’m extremely motivated to determine it out as a result of I would like my eating space again! 😀
