Could not get the comment area up.So I commented in another area.I am the one with the comfy chair comments,<br />So again here goes...because that comment is not posted anywhere, no idea where I went wrong .i am so not computer savvy!<br /><br />I have a comfy chair in my dining area .I read check recipes.Chat and catch up with the family while sitting there. Friday find for yourself night I caought up, while husband and daughter each danced around each other making different meals. i sat an conversed. very comfy thrift shop chair . It's a creamy ivory shade cost $23.00 plus renting the cleaner .Total of $55.00 Woo Hoo!<br />All my magazines are British and I love the chair or couch idea in a farmhouse style eating area.<br />My chair will be leaving in a month as we have purchased new furniture for the 10x13 dining area. No more room for it. I hunted high and low for the perfect chair it was actually suppose to be from Pottery Barn mega expensive for Christmas 2012. My daughter loved it..not comfy enough for me. So I took a chance on the charity shop one to see if I would even like or use it. Has ended up being so comfortable wing back chair,deep and surprisingly wide seat. I am not giving this chair up!<br /><br />So Sarah before your floor is refinished next week, I think you should slide over a comfy chair ,small table and lamp into the bay window area and see what you think. Love the whole room renovation. Cannot wait to see it completed.Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10612670781219669270noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7781670590071996754.post-27745358067608909032014-07-25T10:56:40.957-04:002014-07-25T10:56:40.957-04:00Thank you!!

I would SO expand that island...just do it...you can find another place for that butcher block...I just redid our island (it's more of a peninsula since it sticks out from one wall) and wow...you can't believe how much we use that extra counterspace...it seems that the counters that are against the wall (the ones with the sink and fridge) get so cluttered with canisters or coffee makers or whatever...having that nice big island where you can put kids up to it (that grand baby!) or just do crafts and quick projects (laying out all the food for thanksgiving) I mean in this day and age a large island just pays for itself pretty quickly...I say go for it- and give thanks that they jacked up your lovely island because now you have an excuse to go BIG! good luckKellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06302815700164308749noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7781670590071996754.post-69956207614570653472014-07-25T10:23:55.238-04:002014-07-25T10:23:55.238-04:00Have you seen the covers for flat screen tvs that ...Have you seen the covers for flat screen tvs that look like mirrors when you turn the tv off?

Ok, got a suggestion. You love wheels as much as I do, so how about putting wheels on your kitchen island? I bought one that I was never able to use in our previous small kitchen (don't ask me why I bought it- duh!). I think I was enamored with the wheels and didn't think it through too well. Maybe in the next house, I'll actually be able to work it in somehow....SheilaG @ Plum Doodleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10581627279563855253noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7781670590071996754.post-51673826786260422072014-07-24T09:30:18.635-04:002014-07-24T09:30:18.635-04:00What a huge difference this is making!

Definitely going in the basement if we ever finish it. I can't wait to see it all finished. Your poor island. It will be nice to have it where you want it though. Debating... we are putting in prefinished hickory hardwood floors - ourselves. Crazy, I know. But labor was around $7,000, just to install. Debating if I should replace our island. Builder grade cabinets and not a fan of them. Either way, after seeing your floors, we will definitely remove it. I LOVE your wood counter top on yours. I need to show it to my hubby. ;)Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08895535159666065770noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7781670590071996754.post-78503222306364514802014-07-23T11:25:20.870-04:002014-07-23T11:25:20.870-04:00I love these updates, Sarah.
