Dining Room Makeover !

This is our new Mercer Blue by Ralph Lauren dining room.
We started off with a nice tan dining room but I am falling in love with blue so one more blue room but a different shade .I wanted the room to pop and not be so traditional and stiff.





Step one was to pick out the paint color which I said was Mercer Blue by Ralph Lauren $26 for one gallon.
I decided to paint the door way arch area white instead of blue. I was hoping it would give the doorway a larger grander look.
I picked a tile design to have my husband make out of vinyl. Here is the practice layout.
Here is lewis putting up the vinyl. The trick is we measured from the chair rail to the point on the bottom on the design. On the second one we measured from the top of the first one. Then each row measure from the bottom and the side from one another.

This did take a few hours but we have 2 kids always running around us. So someone else might be quicker. We used 35 vinyl designs in all.
Then we added the table cloth for $10 from Target and the 2 end chairs are a leaf pattern $190 with shipping and tax for both from Target online clearance. So the total room not counting the vinyl because we used the vinyl we already had from our business. The total $226
I have entered this room makeover in the DIY Project Party Monthly Contest. Go on over and check out everyone's get projects or enter your own.
