Although we no longer have a formal dining room around here, I received some beautiful photos from one of my readers who recently finished this design for her clients’ federal colonial home and thought it might offer some inspiration for those of you trying to decide on a paint color for your dining room.
I love how Denise opted for white walls—not always the obvious choice when creating a formal dining space. But, this room is a great example of how a few colorful touches can be enough. (The walls were yellow before, by the way.)
(Artwork is by Black Crow Studios.)
You can see the before pictures and sources for this space on Denise’s blog.
