    We're in lockdown again in Melbourne, Australia and I can't tell you how excited I was when I saw that you had posted a new video Arika. I really love your channel so much. My home is also quite small and cosy and I recently changed over my 6 seat rectangular dining table for a round table that also opens up like yours. For Mother's Day this year my husband bought me a hutch. My dining area looks spacious but cosy at the same time and I love decorating my new hutch. Your new dining area looks stunning. You're such a blessing Arika. God bless.

    Arika, you are showing so many people how to take pride in their home and you show how to do things on a budget. I know when we take pride in our blessings, God is smiling from above. And you give all us moms motivation so many times to clean. You are a blessing to so many! Everything looks so beautiful in your dining room. I have learned a lot from your channel.

    The light! The rug! And of course the round table! Those chairs could NOT be prettier. The color is gorgeous. I am excited to see how you decorate your new hutch. Marion is the bomb for doing all the difficult work on your projects. He absolutely earned the nachos. I am right there with you on the mexican food. Gotta have it at least once a week.

    Good morning, Arika, Marion, everyone. Oh my word, Arika, I LOVE everything you guys have done with the dining area (actually, with the whole house)! It looks amazing, already! The fact that everyone pitched in to help is wonderful. Such a beautiful, blessed family. I, also, love how you, always, think of helping others (i.e., fencing for your Mom's yard, donating the dining table, etc.), such a beautiful heart. God is so good at working through his children! As always, great video; they are NEVER too long! As a matter of fact, I wanted more!😂 I cannot wait for the continuation of this video to see the beautiful, final reveal. Thank you for sharing. Hi, Patrick! Have a wonderful and blessed weekend, everyone.

    Love it so far!!! It looks so roomy in you dining room now. I bet you can get 2 more people around the table and not have to put the leaf in yet. (My guess was right --round table). Already can't wait for the next video. Love the chairs, table and hutch, & perfect for the space you have👌

  • @dorenenagy564
    @dorenenagy564 3 года назад

    And again you have designed such a beautiful room. Can't wait to see the 2nd part. Marion did a great job also. Marion and you remind me so much of my husband and I when we were younger. We have owned two houses and both of them had to have work done. We took care of all of it. Enjoy your peeks at the weather! Stay safe, stay well.

    The light made a big difference.:-)
    Your husband is so sweet,.He has a cheerful attitude when helping you.
    A lot of work painting,but well worth it.

  • @karennelson5334
    @karennelson5334 3 года назад

    Instead of contact paper for the backing, I use scrapbook paper squares with glue dots. The dots hold the paper to the wood but peel off when you want to change them. Cost-effective and easy to change on a whim. I have seen white-washed board printed scrapbook paper recently. My little hutch needed a pop of color and the paper in the back did the trick.

    @rachelmiranda1870 3 года назад +1

    I would place the hutch near the table in a caddy-corner style. Also, you can build a radiator cover in the same color as the chairs. And the empty wall near the table a huge mirror. JUST SAYING.

    You mentioned that maybe you wanted the light moved over some and you can do that with the light you have since it has a chain. You just have to get a hanging hook and put that where you want it as long as the chain and line are long enough and just hang the chain from the hook.
