22 Days to Less Mess ( Day 8 The Dining Room)

*Sigh*. Another room with mostly naked walls. I did post this which hangs on the adjacent wall. Oh well, it sure makes for easy cleaning :o). So, the big tackle in this room is the buffet. It belonged to my oma (dutch for grandma). I think she used it mostly for fancy china and things. Me? Ummm, not so much. I have used it for china and such, but lately it houses other things. Things that I can lock up if need be, which I do because I don't want any children painting whenever they feel like it, except the one who is taking art this semester.

The drawers hold our Bible and devotional books. The cupboard not shown open (in top photo) is surprisingly empty. Our kitchen became larger with the renovation, so my fancy china (the little that I own and LOVE) now sits high up in a cupboard in the kitchen.

(Yeesh, I should be editing these in RAW. The colour is nasty!)

So about ten minutes later, and a good wipe down of the buffet, and you have more stuff cleaned up. Why do kids need so many colouring books? I have a plan for them, but we'll save that for another day.

So, would you all cringe if I said I was going to paint my antique buffet this colour?
