Hey peeps! Welcome to the part 2 in
the Carrie Pectol Leavitt spot light. This mission is 2 fold. One
we will be introduced to her creepy dining room; and second, we will
see how said dining room came to be. Let me begin by saying that
everything that Carrie touched turns to gold. She could pin a log of
poo to her Pinterest board and get a thousand repins. Not to
mention, people around the globe would be engaging in fecal crafting.
Isn't it interesting how one person can influence our perception of
what is right and what is wrong?!? Well, ADHD moment; that is
another discussion for another day!
Carrie's dining room did a bit of
experimenting in it's day. Get your minds out of the gutter... We
all ran the gamut of identities. My friends like to remind me of my
fat emo stage... They said I had hair like Rosie O'Donnell! Can you
believe that?! Crazy talk! We digress. Carrie's dining room began
it's life as a mild-mannered carport. Upon entering puberty
so-to-speak, a delightful enclosed garage emerged. The garage
sacrificed of it's self to make room for a small mudroom. Carrie got
a bee in her bonnet, and a dining room was born.
The furnishings are a mixture of new
and refinished finds. The table is new, while the upholstered chairs
were purchased at a consignment shop. The wood chairs, once a dated
honey oak, received new life with a couple coats of cream paint. The
details were brought to life using a little patina. The bench was
once a foot board, now converted. The built in cabinetry was
purchased unfinished from Habitat for Humanity's, ReStore.
Carrie's new step-down dining room
transitions seamlessly into her beautiful kitchen. But you'll have
to hold your breath for that one... Her kitchen spot light is still
down the road. In addition to this stunning look at dining in style,
please re-join us next month for a glimpse at the holiday décor
slathered around the rest of her house! Thanks a brazillion Carrie
Pectol Leavitt!
