Today is a special day!!
Our youngest child is 10 years old!
Today, our family celebrates Faith!
Now, I would love to show you around my dining room with a little bit of fall added to it.
This post is longer than normal, my friends. Sorry…
I am also getting dishes and linens ready for the upcoming holiday season. You know that Thanksgiving and Christmas will be here before we know it, right? Why not get some things ready sooner rather than later.
For our dining room table, I brought in my old feed bag and added a little fall colors to it.
I added a few pinecones on the table as well so I could have a little nature brought in.
I didn’t change up my buffet because I think the color of the dried hydrangeas already speak of autumn. And the different shades of white in my old plates also add just the right colors.
As you can tell, I love layering things. I love the chippy white frame and old beveled mirror propped in front of the bigger mirror. Layers are a good thing…
On the other side of my buffet is a little painted cabinet full of tablecloths and linen napkins all ready for the using.
I showcased a beautiful old pitcher that my grandmother gave to me years ago.
I always think of my family members that are no longer here, but especially during the holidays. I love for their things to take places of honor in our home.
My old jelly cabinet is filled with my white dishes that we will be using when our family and friends gather together.
I also love hanging beautiful vintage linens here and there.
On top of my jelly cabinet sits a beautiful old scale I found.
and on the floor beside the cabinet sits an old egg crate that holds lots of our “crystal” glasses…
I love finding cool storage options like this beautiful crate. This crate and another one like it were found in the barn loft at my grandparent’s home.
A few more and I am done…promise…
That’s our dining room.
This is actually one of my favorite rooms. I am totally in love with my old farm table and it’s mismatched chairs.
This is where we do our school, sit for family talks, and eat special breakfasts with our 10 year old birthday girl.
Yes, it’s a good thing…
Blessings to you all today!

Beautiful home...a very Happy Birthday to your little one...blessings
I love your cottage shabby dining room. The mix of chairs looks awesome.
Really enjoyed your post today. I also love to have sentimental things in my home from love ones that have passed on. I love your your soft natural decorating. I have been thinking I need to soften my rooms some to make them seem bigger. I would love to have you as a follower. Hugs and blessing to you. ~Jen
Amy, your home always makes me smile as it is so filled with love and warmth. You can feel it in every photo. Wishing your youngest a very blessed special birthday.

Happy Birthday Faith! Ten is a wonderful age. I love it.
And I love the dining room. You just don't know how many times I've tried to arrange vintage stuff around here to look good like you do, but mine never does. I have finally decided that what I love about your look is 2 things: 1. I love the way you use whites 2. I love old stuff. Now, I just need to figure out how to do my own style in such a way that it says "Debbie".
I am in love with your dining room, too! Every..little...touch you have added, just gorgeous. I love the vintage scale, the plates and linens.

My, My! We have a lot in common when it comes to Farmhouse decor! I could walk into your homes and feel right at home. Beautiful. . . .
I love your dining room! My favorite room in your house :)
The platters are so perfect in the chicken feeder...and all your white dishes, wow! I also adore that tub with the mum set inside. So fall!
My favorite photo is the last one, great shot of the whole room. That harvest table is wonderful with all the mixed-matched chairs.
Beautiful my friend!
Lots of hugs :)
Amy, I love all your vintage linens. They are so cozy in whites and creams and look lovely together! Jean
oh Amy, everything looks perfect...xo
It's beautiful, Amy. When I first walked into your home and saw your dining room, I remember that's when I thought, wow! I could spend hours in your home looking at all your treasures and your gorgeous decorating. I love the table and mismatched chairs too!
