Dining Room Inspiration

We were scheduled to tear down the wall between our dining room and living room yesterday, but then we started to have second thoughts.  So, we are debating between 3 options right now....leave it as it is, tear it out completely, or make it a half wall or window cutout. 
I have been looking online for inspiration.  And, since my camera battery is dead, and I left the charger at my sister's house, I thought that I would put some of my favorites up here.  That way I have them all in one place.  
But I do have some seriously exciting things to blog about once I get that battery charged.....like one of my closest friends getting ENGAGED!


Okay, so on with the dining rooms....

The two pictures above are what made me think that I might like a cut out window in the wall instead of knocking out the whole thing.

There are many, many more, but that is all I have time to post right now.  I have been listening to Mumford and Sons non stop today.  
I am obsessed with them right now.

  1. I like the cut out window idea- it's nice to have a sense of separation between the kitchen and the dining room, but also allow for communication between the two rooms. The rounded half-dome cut-out appeals to my whimsical side. :-)

  2. Are you taking votes? If so...I'm a big time Cape Cod decor fan. I tried to bring the beach to our house as much as possible since we will never be able to actually afford anything on the sand. So I love the lookk of the blue and white. In addition, We cut out our wall from the kitchen doorway and over about 5ft and made it a bar area for eating. It really increased the amount of seating available for guests.

  3. Ok, so I felt I needed to leave a comment, so I could make sure you still do a blog on my engagement. I like the window idea and really think as long as it was big enough it would look great. I also think putting an arch in the window would be nice.
