Our dining cabinet came from a local antique store who use to get antique furniture shipments in from England.

If you're looking for a natural fiber rug, check out naturalarearugs.com. Their prices are much better than Pottery Barn and they frequently run 25% off sales. And they have free shipping both ways! We got an 8x10herringbone seagrass for just over $100! For the space next to the door to the soon-to-be balcony, what about a bench or a small table to house shoes or misc. things from coming in and out of the house? Also, I am coveting your china cabinet :) Where did you find such a perfect peice?

I also agree with you and think the table behind the sofa with lamps of glass would look sensational, it will completely finish it off. The wall on the right next to the door, I'm thinking if you could find a gorgeous huge mirror to lean up against the wall would be really beautiful (no?) maybe reflect not only light but your gorgeous chairs as well....just a thought. Your built-in book case will look great on that wall one day as well. You are doing a great job, well done to you both.<br />Have a great day today.<br /><br />Janine<br />XXOO<br />Tasmania, AustraliaJanine Marshallnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3804818183817823900.post-87112141491663296332009-10-26T17:00:06.135-04:002009-10-26T17:00:06.135-04:00I am sure it will turn out beautiful, excited to s...I am sure it will turn out beautiful, excited to see your new furnitures in front of the fireplace though! <br /><br />Have a happy day:)A Seaside Househttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11542468673987768318noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3804818183817823900.post-65542597983953113972009-10-26T15:30:54.724-04:002009-10-26T15:30:54.724-04:00Just beautiful!!!
