Beachy Dining Room

We are over here loving our Beachy Dining Room! It’s casual, bright and airy!

We are a casual beachy type of family. My husband and I got married on the beach and the beach is truly our happy place. One day our dream is to own our own beach home that we can enjoy and rent out as well. Even though our home isn’t directly on the beach, we aren’t far from some of the world’s most beautiful beaches. When we bought our new home, we knew we had to come in a gut it from the top down. We almost went with a more modern look, but this casual beachy style just fits us perfectly.

A real dining room was a must-have space when we were house hunting. I know so many feel that dining rooms are ancient, but I truly wanted a kitchen table area and a separate dining room. Although this space was crying out for help when we purchased, over time it’s become a space we really love. We are grateful for the extra space when we have birthday parties and holiday gatherings for sure. We also use our beachy dining room for the occasional family game nights too! Much like our beachy foyer, it’s a space we are proud of!

    We just moved and bought a home warranty through comprehensivehomewarranty.com and it was surprisingly affordable. In the long run, it’ll save me from having to buy new appliances for a while.

    Did you paint your side chairs? I am painting my bathroom in Sea Salt and I want an accent wall that is similar to your side chairs? When I hit the link, it looks like they only come in brown tones. Do you have any idea what color they are or maybe a similar color? Thanks so much for sharing your beautiful space.

  • ☀️ Sea + Sun + Smiles We drove across the state last week for a vacay with family! Had a great time and I was so in the moment, I only took a few photos! We had incredible weather and basically lived our best lives all day on the beach and in the pool together! . . I have had a few messages asking where I have been on insta…. The truth is, I have been soaking up time with my kids, working on a few home updates and spending as much time at the beach and in our pool
