Our White House // a home tour:: let’s eat, the updated version

I posted a little update last week,
and here’s a little continuation of it.
The dining room hasn’t changed much since I posted it before. But the little it has is worth showing, right? :) Not sure if you know this, but I LOVE thrifting/antiquing/call-it-whatever-you-want-ing. :)
Almost everything in our home was previously owned, including the table, the toolbox, and the coasters seen in these photos.
And these coasters were a STEAL.
Plus, I split the set with a BFF, so every time I use them, I think of her.
And it is great.
Before deciding that these thrifted school chairs should actually be used as functional seating,
I decorated them. Because why not, right?

And, that’s our dining room/kitchen. You can see more here … and here.
sidenote: you know the Target Dollar Spot? wellllll, my sister gave me a sunflower starter from there for Christmas last year.
I don’t have anything resembling a green thumb, so I waited almost a year before planting the seeds.
AND THEN THEY GREW.
If you follow my instagram, you’ve seen the recent news about said sunflower.
But, anyway. Moving on.

I went on to buy a basil plant from the same dollar bin, AND IT’S GROWING. AH!
(it’s the iiiiiiity bitty flower pot in the photo on the right)
WHOOP!
