Hello Everyone!
It's time for Met Monday at Between Naps on the Porch.
Here is our kitchen dinette area before.
I recently purchased new draperies.
They are called Richfield and are from BB& Beyond.
I bought them in gold and it was a perfect match
to the paint called Applesauce Cake from Lowes.
The red paint is Cooper Molero Fandango Red at Lowes.
The bronze leaf finial rod is from Lowes.
I am really happy with the results.
It makes the room feel warm and cozy.

Beautiful drapes, Melissa! Love this Before and After! :-) I really like the pattern and the contrast of the drapes against the red wall color. And they work sooo wellwith the gold color, too.

Your house is beautiful!
Melissa, the drapes are just stunning. They really do change the appearance of the room. It's funny how sometimes even small changes make such a big difference. The print is pretty in the picture, and I'm sure even nicer in person. Very lovely. Hugs, Marty
They create a wonderful frame for the window area. The entire nook looks elegant and finished. I love the texture.
Oh I just love the new curtains. It warms up the room so much. I also love the paint colors in there. Very nice. Debbie
Hi Melissa - these are great additioins to your breakfast area. I like how they pull in the red from the room. It also adds some weight to the windows. Really pretty. Hope your babies gave you lots of hugs and snuggles today.

Good morning Melissa, I have been catching up, I love your new drapes they are so rich and elegant and look perfect in your dinette area. Your home is beautiful inside and out as I was also reading your previous post on the porch, your Geraniums, ferns and fuschias look so huge and healthy, we are doing everything we can here to attract the hummingbirds, I could sit and watch them all day :-), Hope you have a wonderful week, hugs, Kathy.

It's amazing what drapery will do to a room... ENJOY!
Those are beautiful drapes, Melissa! I love color on walls, in fact I just realized there isn't a single white wall in my house!
Melissa, they are the perfect addition to this cozy area! I did enlarge the picture, and they have such beautiful detail on them. It's really amazing what a difference they made. Great job! laurie
Hey Melissa,
Your house always looks perfect. Makes me realize how much work I need to do to mine. Thanks for coming by to check on me. I've been so busy with so many different things. Right now, I'm dickering w/ my insurance company on a plumbing leak, trying to help at school w/ some year end activities, and getting the baby's room ready, all so I can spend half of June & most of July at the beach. I don't know when I'll get to blog again, but I do think of you all & miss you. I hope you're doing well. I think you need to work as a decorator. If you're like me, my house is almost decorated & I need a new project - SOMETHING TO SHOP FOR! Take care & keep in touch!
Penny
Melissa, everything you do just spells out C*L*A*S*S. Love what you've done. You have proven to me that I don't always have to have custom draperies to get a very nice look.
Now I just need to convince my two best friends who are blinds and drapery designers! :-}
Love your new room, Melissa. I don't think I have seen it before. It does look good with the addition of the longer draperies on the sides, too. Your home is lovely !
So inviting.....
Melissa
I was just on my way over when you came by! Sorry it wasn't sooner! You are such a doll for helping me out! Who'd of thunk it was so simple all along!
Btw, your new drapes are gorgeous! and so is your whole dining room! You've got ALL my favorite colors!
Thanks again!!
Take care,
Sherri:D
Warm, Cozy and WELCOMING! I'm always amazed at how a small change can really have a huge impact. It looks great!
Hi Melissa,
Your drapes look great with the valances in the middle. I like the rod you chose, too. Your whole dining room is in my favorite colors.
I posted your great giveaway on my blog today. Thanks again, I love it all!!
I love Red and gold! Just gorgeous!

Hello Sweet Friend...
Just read your note and wanted to come by...thank you so much for the sweet compliment...I sure had fun playing with that photo site! hehe!!!
What are you up to today? I'm trying to get things together and prepared for our weekend getaway! We're going to a car show in Kansas...taking the camp trailer...so I'm really looking forward to it! We'll leave early Friday morning and won't get back home till Sunday eve. I'm still going to host Sunday Favorites if you want to join in though...don't want to miss doing it! I have already prepared my post...it's supposed to publish on Sat.at 4pm. I sure hope that it works out since I won't be here to check on it!

44????????? Holy smokes! I swear I thought you were in your early 20s!! Whatever cream or magic potion you're using I'll buy it. I can NOT believe it.
Why thank you for your sweet comment about my front door. I do like it too. Before we put those in it was so dark inside and now it is nice and bright.
I really like your new drapes. I think they make the red on the wall pop even more. Or it might be because that picture was taken at night. I think they look classy and elegant, yet comfy and warm. Good choice!
It's like they just completed the room.
Have a great day! Karen
Everyone knows I am ALL for cozy! You did a great job!
Brenda
