Hey friends, are you following us on Instagram and Pinterest? We update daily!

Happy Monday!  Don’t you love when you make simple changes in a room and it transforms the whole space?  I wallpapered my dining room and can’t believe how much it brightened up the room!  I’m loving it, what do you think??

Check out my dining room before. So today’s post is Part One of my new dining room reveal.  I still love the yellow stencil but wanted to update the space.  When Walls Republic asked if we’d like to review their wallpaper, I found their Brushed Wood Ash and thought it’d be a similar look to my pretty planked walls in my master bedroom.  We started off with some basic wallpaper supplies:

Here are similar products to what we used to help you shop quickly, we picked up ours at our local home improvement store: Wallpaper Glue, Smoothing Roller, Seam Roller, Wallpaper Sponge.  And of course you’ll need good quality wallpaper.

Instead of showing a step-by-step, head to WR for their easy install process.  They share tips from prepping the wall to hanging the paper straight to cutting around outlets.

We decided to replace the mirror with 8′ shelves and will move the aqua hutch into my craft room.  I’ve shared some sneak peeks of the shelves on our Instagram feed, search ‘ljdiningroom’.

On my to-do-list is paint the yellow to white or gray to tone down the kitchen.  Plus I greatly dislike my tile but until we can replace it, I’m on the hunt for a fun rug.  You know how much I adore color, afterall!  And I have the best aqua pendant lights on their way, so excited to get them installed.  Then I’ll make a giant sign for the focal point of the shelves and then stage them to add more color and depth to the space.  This room is going to look so different than the before, super excited!
