Our "And His Name Shall Be Called..." Oversized Wood Sign and Some Simple Winter Touches in the Dining Room


I hope you all are having a lovely week! I am excited to share with you our newest sign! We are listing our first batch of them today. I initially was planning on using this up in our bedroom but decided to try it in the dining room before I carried it upstairs and I ended up liking how it looked.


Then we added a bucket and some paperwhites and a simple garland to the table and then some cozy pillows and birch candle holders from Soft Surroundings. And some mercury glass ornaments to the branches in the urn and a pair of my old ice skates.


 






We also added this nativity to our rolling shelves.

  8. Jennifer, love your dining room and your decorating style. Would you please tell me how high you put the breadboard wallpaper from the floor. I am considering adding the wall paper this weekend and I really like the height of yours. Thanks so much Angela
