Your dining table in that dark colour actually looks like it belongs in that space - it sets off your dining chairs so beautifully and would stand out in relief against a floral wallpaper (like the one in your bedroom).
Your new table is gorgeous! Someone else suggested to move your large mirror where the green cabinet is now and it would reflect so much light from your windows! I agree! I love using mirrors in my home for that reason! ❤️ Happy decorating!
Me too. I have never found very good thrift stores in my part of the USA except when I go a thousand miles away to my summer home Upstate NY.-- New York has the best shopping ever!!!maybe its the population, IDK.
@mosstaylor9859 I do think it depends on location. I live an hour north of Atlanta, and it's all crapola here. haha Maybe closer to the 2 million dollar homes in Atlanta, the pickings are better. But, who wants to drive on the off-chance that you may find something?
@@vickinoeske1154 I agree, I used to drive to the East side of Nashville Tn. ( RICH AREA! ....lol ) but its a long drive from the south side In which I live ( working class area. ) Unless I make a full day of it, and have my own truck. ☺
Hi Elize, great furniture finds. I was thinking maybe you could move the big gold mirror and put it against the wall where the green cabinet is, to reflect the light in the room until you get a skylight and move the green cupboard and put it where the mirror is until you find the right piece of furniture that you like. You could add faux green plants and put them next to the big mirror to give that space life, and add a free standing light in gold. Of course you need a big dining room table. 😂 You are funny. Seriously, the small round table was abit small for the space. Well done on your lovely purchases. The couch🛋️ is so cute. Enjoy. 🤗💖💐
Your table is perfect with the chairs. I have cherry wood furniture that is 30 + years old. I wouldn't change the color despite everyone's cringing over orange brown wood!!! Embrace the beauty of all wood colors.
Elise….I actually love your dining table color the way it is! After 50 years of marriage when we downsized, I went thrifting for a good expandable table to be used for just us or family gatherings….and found a beautiful cherry table & chairs from a couple also moving into a condo but not for family gatherings any more. I am so satisfied with the feeling of being grounded with cherry wood that I also use it for cutting out patterns on fabric for clothing for the grandchildren….besides many grand dinners! You may want to wait on changing the color till getting on your wallpapered wall and skylight. I can see why you want the feeling of not so much cramping overhead but lift with a skylight. Your beautiful mirror for that space highlights, sparkles & expands the feeling! Wonderful!
Wouldn't it be easier to use different colour table clothes instead of painting it. It's also a good way to see what color would be best in that corner.
Try the big mirror on the end wall of dining room .. it will reflect the natural light from the window 💕 Also try twinkle lights or fairy lights on top of your cupboard ..that will light the ceiling.. making any room brighter 🤠
My suggestions. Take the time to hang up all the artwork that you have and donate the rest. Find table lamps so that your house isn't so dark. It will feel so much more cozy!
Yes, and I love lighting candles, as well. I have glass holders for my votives that I set inside my tea cups from my set of china. They are on my dresser . I have found many uses for my china, other than using it in the traditional way for a meal to entertain guests.
Design rule of thumb light from every corner !! Yes lamps are needed ... I agree wallpaper bright in back wall, hang picture s , skylight would be beautiful....live with that table a long time before painting. ..you may learn to live it ...I do.
Yes, lamps are good, and skylights add natural light, which is better for your emotional well being, as you connect more with nature, Plants love being near skylights and although there is an up front cost for installation, you do save a little more money on electricity in the long run.@@jayemowrey1416
I love the curved arms of the sofa,it is so charming. I can’t wait to see the little area you create! Thank you also for sharing your street scenery it is gorgeous and so different than Southern California.
Hi Elise, skylights are great, but be sure you get the right contractor. All of them will tell you, 'no problem' however, to cut in a skylight into an existing roof is sometimes asking for problems, especially with rain, frost, ice and snow in your area. Some roofers may advise against it - take your time. Love your channel, Happy New Year!
Can’t wait to see what you are going to do! One of the joys of living on your own is that you can paint the wood on your table if you want to! It’s fun to be creative with thrifted finds, and I love watching what you do. Great content.
Elise has a talent in decor and an incredible vision for design!. She reminds me of me in my younger years, only much more depth in design and color ( when I had to be careful with $ ) 😉.
That large mirror would be nice where the cupboard is, so when people are sitting at the table, they can see outdoors, and it would bring more light to the space. It seems wasted where it is now.
Hi Elise...I adore you because you're YOU! I am inspired by your UNIQUE style, grace and personality. Please beware of those in the world that try to impose or recommend their opposing preferences on your personal life choices. Stay true to yourself, you're FABULOUS!
The sofa is so lovely in your shop! The pattern looks so pretty with the patterns of the clothes! Also, I love the table as it is! I think it speaks really nicely to the brickwork in the living room. But it’s your space and it’s most important that you’re happy with it!
What about midnight blue for the table? And a beautiful wallpaper behind it with floral and birds in a turquoise tone? Blue is complementary to orange, which is the color of your sofa. 😊
Elise, you could lighten the color of your table and show off the grain in the wood by just adding liming wax or Cerusing wax and then buffing against the grain. Amy Howard at Home has great choices in those two waxes. Plus she sells a product called Clean Slate that will clean off any old wax and/or furniture polishes. And she ships internationally. I’m in America and I only use her products because they are so good and so safe for the end user and your furniture. She has some great videos on RUclips as well if you want to check her out. Great table and couch purchases by the way.
You are such an inspriation! You think everything through so well and know what you're doing and I respect you so much. Every single post is a joy to watch. Thank you for all you share with us. 🙂
You might look into Sun Tubes Elise. They are smaller than a sky light and cost much less and really put out as much natural light as a sky light. I live in a heavy wooded forest in the pacific northwest where it's often dark and rainy and my sun tubes work beautifully! Just a thought for you!
The man with the pipe reminds me of Van Gogh. I'm astounded at all the handiwork, beautiful furniture and paintings in your thrift shops. Astounding! Why does Paris get all the glory.
Yes I love that table and its colour! It looks utterly perfect with your beautiful armchairs! I look forward to seeing your amazing skylight. Brightest Blessings on your every single moment
I love the dark table but it's your decor. It does set off the chairs. If you paint your table will you have to paint the rims of your chairs so it will match it? As far as the skyline it sounds like a great idea but make sure that the carpenter does a great job because skylights that you put in a roof tend to leak. So make sure he puts in some extra leak-proof stuff around the skylight.
The dark table looks good with the dark chairs in that position. If you want to brighten up the space the use of a colourful table runner would do the trick. Also a lamp in the corner with one bulb going up to the ceiling and the other going in another lower direction pointed at the wall would give more balance. You could even place a small but tall potted plant next to the lamp to add greenery there. Plants always brighten up a space. I think your home looks lovely. Just needs the right accents for lighting the space. ❤
I love your new table. Dont paint. The chairs go so well with the table. Add small lamps every dark corner. A dear friend shared that idea . It's very cozy. I agree about the mirrors . Great video
Have you considered placing the large gold floor mirror where the cabinet is in the dining room? Just guessing it would pull some of the light from the window into the dining room for now.
The new dining table looked huge in the store, but the size is great in your room. The size is just right even if you live by yourself. It will be great for crafting, sewing - whatever you want do. Looking forward to seeing what colour you paint it. Hello from Australia.
I love that you have a vision of what you want and are fearless to go after it and / or make changes when you feel it. I enjoy watching the evolution of your beautiful home!
Perfect vintage this week with beautiful coats and jackets and I can't wait to see the seating area in the boutique. The dining room table surprising looks great in your house. What about adding some recessed lighting in your dining room area rather than a skylight? A few cans cans will add such a warm glow, lots of light and they don't interfere with your aesthetic, so you could still add a beautiful chandelier over the table if you wanted. They're also a great way to highlight a hutch or art pieces. Thanks for taking us along this week, who wouldn't enjoy January in Denmark with Elise 😘
I can't wait to see what color/colors you choose for the table! I taught my daughter to look at the style/shape of an item and envision it in a different color, as you can change it to suit your style. I was thrilled to see you bought the painting of the man.🥰
I love going around the thrift shops with you! A sky light would make a huge difference. I totally agree about the Carpenter, I found one and I live on my own. He’s done lots of work for me over the years. All the times he came to work were positive, and as a bonus, humorous lol😆. It’s so important!
I love the new table in you space! I have enjoyed watching you this winter, you have brightened my day and my gloomy attitude on gloomy days. I cannot wait to see your dining area transformed. I noticed so many suggestions in the comments, and of course i have one too;) Elise, have you ever thought of switching your large mirror and tall cabinet in this space? Maybe the mirror on the other wall would bounce some light around the room, just enough to suffice until you get the skylight put in. Love watching you- keep it real, love love love that about you.
Elise, be careful about getting a skylight. They are notoriously known for being leaky. Also, I just read that here in the US they aren't putting them in new homes anymore.
I love how the new dining table in its extended state has the same shape as your sofa table. That also sort of brings the two parts of the room together as their central pieces correspond with each other. Nice choice! So far I love all your interior design choices! Even with the brick wall - I was sceptical about that whitewash in the first place - it looks so stunning and really adds to the character of your home! 🏡 😍
Watching your video was so relaxing. The drive through the countryside and city is a reminder of my trip to Denmark. Beautiful! I love the new dining table and look forward to seeing what you will do with it. The small sofa is just the right piece for your boutique. You waited and searched the thrift stores until the right pieces spoke to you. Good luck with finding the perfect sideboard or buffet for your dining room. The addition of a sky light will brighten that area greatly. Until your next video, good luck choosing your carpenter. ~Debi in Ohio
I like the dark table, it looks very sophisticated and if candles and dishes on the table for guests or just yourself it would look different. I think the green cabinet that you are getting rid of does not go with the new table, so I think when you get rid of that cabinet, you may think differently about the darkness of the table. It looks lovely with your sofa. I used to paint a lot of my furniture, but then thought I had a house just too full of it and no contrast. Love the shop sofa, so beautiful. I would not do a skylight. I would put a large lamp on anew sideboard that you hopefully will buy to go with your table. The lamp would make enough light. And another lamp in your living area that was larger to give off enough light also.
I too, love the dining room table and it's original wood color. It matches so well with the chairs. Love it. (I really hope you don't have plans to paint them.....that would just not look right with that wonderful tapestry. Who ever gets your cabinet, is going to score. Love your new line of clothes....take care.
I wouldn't change the colour of the dining room table it looks so good with the chairs. I would lighten with wallpaper not paint the table it's so pretty as it is.
I am counting down the days until spring!! Btw idk if you’re into nyc vlogs but if so, you might like mine! I’d be sooo grateful if you swung by and took a peek. 🙏 Stick around if you like!
i simply ADORE your home decor style. i don't see the mess you see, but i guess it's cause you have a specific idea in mind. I love your new table. 🌺 congrats on getting one more step done 💕
re-locating your large mirror to replace the tall cabinet would give light and the best garden view into the current quietness of the end zone and corner. also agree with other post about filling all corners with lamps for friendlier lighting. thanks for your inspiration over here in Canada xoxo
I think the dining table goes perfect with your dining chairs,a chandelier would look so pretty and brighten up the spacebut i know you have a different vision in mind😊
Hi Elise, what a beautiful Table. The darker color gives you some contrast, but I realize, you don’t like darker colors. Really great thrift finds. Thank you for taking us along with you.
I agree waiting to paint the table is a good idea - by the time you have the skylight, wallpaper, other furniture, pictures etc, it might not even be a problem to be dark. Tablecloths are also an easier option! 😆
This was a great video - a week with Elise ❣️ Can’t wait to see what you do with your dining space 🥰. I totally agree about finding a carpenter that you can trust for future projects as well. And Especially with a skylight! It will make such a difference in that dark corner of your home. I cut and built a timber frame cabin on my own about a decade ago and found a great person to help me build the road and fill in the cabin walls roof etc. He is amazing! We have been able to mill our own lumber from the surrounding forest, find the best deals on materials. I am finally at the interior planning, slowed down due to my health, but he and my dad have been working together to help me complete this dream. He and his wife became my close friends. I feel so blessed to have found such an amazing, carpenter-lumberjack-of-all-trades. Best of luck on finding a lasting fit to help you with your future house projects.
Always a joy to watch your creative mind at work. You are so refreshing, nothing stays the same . Your colours are gorgeous your home exciting so rich and full of flavour . I love not knowing what you will bring forth next. Like your clothing a glamourous journey. Thank you Elise you are young beautiful and enthusiastic in life. Always a pleasure to wait for the next video. You keep discovering new creative parts of yourself and its so inspiring.Have the best year ever lovely lady. Blessings❤❤❤❤❤
Hi Elise you choose stunning pieces when thrifting, the skylight will definitely brighten your space with natural light 😊❤ the dining table fills the space nicely.
I loved that vintage school bag in the thrift shop. It was gorgeous!. I own my grandfather's leather work attache case. I adore it. Enjoyed today's video. Love to you from the states.💕
Hello beautiful girl!! Your imagery in this video is just stunning!! And the music is so beautiful!! (Your imagery & music is always awesome but this video ❤❤❤) Love love going thrifting with you!! The little sofa is so pretty!! Cant wait to see what you do with the table & that corner!! A skylight would be tremendous!! You just did an amazing job with this video!! Take care sweet girl 💕😊
I love love love your dining room table as is.. When I saw that picture of the man in the thrift shop I was hoping you'd get it.. I adore that.. Fun to go shopping with you..
Your dining table in that dark colour actually looks like it belongs in that space - it sets off your dining chairs so beautifully and would stand out in relief against a floral wallpaper (like the one in your bedroom).
I do have a plan, and the table isn't staying like that 🥰
I agree .
I would rather see it in a lighter colour = more Bohemian style.
Agree... I would wait and live with it until the walls and sky light are sorted. Time makes things look different. But that's just me. 😊❤
I agree with you
Your new table is gorgeous! Someone else suggested to move your large mirror where the green cabinet is now and it would reflect so much light from your windows! I agree! I love using mirrors in my home for that reason! ❤️ Happy decorating!
I say TWO of those mirrors on that wall, side by side would be gorgeous 💜
I think the large gold mirror would look beautiful on wall where green cabinet is
Move the mirror, before you order the skylight!
What a great idea! The mirror would look fantastic there!
I can't believe what beautiful, quality merchandise your thrift shops have in your area. I can only say wow and that I'm envious. 😊
Me too. I have never found very good thrift stores in my part of the USA except when I go a thousand miles away to my summer home Upstate NY.-- New York has the best shopping ever!!!maybe its the population, IDK.
@mosstaylor9859 I do think it depends on location. I live an hour north of Atlanta, and it's all crapola here. haha Maybe closer to the 2 million dollar homes in Atlanta, the pickings are better. But, who wants to drive on the off-chance that you may find something?

I was thinking the same…👍🏻
The idea of having one person as your handyman is very good. ❤❤❤❤❤
I would also check with my friends and family for recommendations 😊
Absolutely! ❤❤❤❤especially as a single woman and background checks!! Always do background checks
Try the big mirror on the end wall of dining room .. it will reflect the natural light from the window 💕
Also try twinkle lights or fairy lights on top of your cupboard ..that will light the ceiling.. making any room brighter 🤠
Your dining table colour is perfect as it is. Please consider keeping it. So elegant
I don't like it, it's veeery dark 🥰
My suggestions. Take the time to hang up all the artwork that you have and donate the rest. Find table lamps so that your house isn't so dark. It will feel so much more cozy!
Yes, and I love lighting candles, as well. I have glass holders for my votives that I set inside my tea cups from my set of china. They are on my dresser . I have found many uses for my china, other than using it in the traditional way for a meal to entertain guests.
I love lamps.
FYI - you can remove the votive and let the candle just melt down in the tea cup - very easy to clean.
Design rule of thumb light from every corner !! Yes lamps are needed ...
I agree wallpaper bright in back wall, hang picture s , skylight would be beautiful....live with that table a long time before painting. ..you may learn to live it ...I do.

Light in that corner would be amazing 🌟 ☮
I love the curved arms of the sofa,it is so charming. I can’t wait to see the little area you create!
Thank you also for sharing your street scenery it is gorgeous and so different than Southern California.
I love when Elise shows us her City, her villages and shops! I do like that lots.
Lamos woud do wonders !!! Lighting from all corners... ❤
Love the new table. I agree with others the colour of the table looks fab especially with your chairs. ❤
I love that you are going to put in a sky light. There is nothing like natural, overhead light. Can hardly wait to see it.
The table and chairs are beautiful the way they are. The color makes it look elegant.
I love your skylight idea. Once it's dark outside wouldn't you still have a dark room. I do think a hanging light over the table would be lovely.
I think the table looks great with the rest of your furniture. I don't think it needs changing colour at all 😘
The dining table IS beautiful and fills Up the space perfectly.

The dinning table is brilliant. So versitile. It is going to look so good once you have painted it and put the finishing touches on it.
The skylight idea soo perfect ☁️ it’ll take the house on a whole new vibe

I love that you have a vision of what you want and are fearless to go after it and / or make changes when you feel it. I enjoy watching the evolution of your beautiful home!
Dark looks great with the chairs, I wouldn’t change!,,

I would put a Large Glass Chandelier over the Table x❤
I hope you don't have any trouble painting your new table! Painting over a glossy finish is quite difficult!
Elise your home is so pretty. You are right to take your time. Let it evolve naturally. Your taste is amazing and I love all your videos❤
I can't wait to see what color/colors you choose for the table! I taught my daughter to look at the style/shape of an item and envision it in a different color, as you can change it to suit your style. I was thrilled to see you bought the painting of the man.🥰
Those chairs floral chairs are so, so cute.
I love the dark rich color of the table. Maybe brighten it up with a vintage tablecloth or runner. You have excellent taste.
Great size table for family get togethers.. a gold and glass bar cart would look great in front of the big mirror

Like the way your dining room table echoes the shape of your coffee table. Wow!! The dresses and jackets are stunning❤💜💚
Be patient it looks beautiful the way it is!! I love all your finds..
Elise, be careful about getting a skylight. They are notoriously known for being leaky. Also, I just read that here in the US they aren't putting them in new homes anymore.
Here in Denmark they are super normal 🥰
Elise. If for some reason a skylight turns out to be a hassle look into solar tunnels. Velux does great ones.
Best phrase: It’s very January. ❤
I love it when your videos are all over the place. Your content is always great. ❤
Thaanks I'm glad 🥰

I think the table is beautiful the way it is.
Love the couch for your shop!!and the Dining table is so Beautiful!!Yes,a bit lighter will make it lovely!!

And another lamp in your living area that was larger to give off enough light also.
I too, love the dining room table and it's original wood color. It matches so well with the chairs. Love it. (I really hope you don't have plans to paint them.....that would just not look right with that wonderful tapestry. Who ever gets your cabinet, is going to score. Love your new line of clothes....take care.
Your videos are so calming to watch. 😊
I wouldn't change the colour of the dining room table it looks so good with the chairs. I would lighten with wallpaper not paint the table it's so pretty as it is.
It's not messy! It's clean & cute. Enjoy your process!
We all want spring. 😊 If you are happy Elsie,that is all that matters.Love your little couch for your stidio.😊😊
I am counting down the days until spring!! Btw idk if you’re into nyc vlogs but if so, you might like mine! I’d be sooo grateful if you swung by and took a peek. 🙏 Stick around if you like!

i simply ADORE your home decor style. i don't see the mess you see, but i guess it's cause you have a specific idea in mind. I love your new table. 🌺
congrats on getting one more step done 💕
I'm glad you don't. But yes, it's because I see clutter of pieces that won't be staying and I think nothing works together right now heehe 🥰THANKS!
Yo u are a jewel to watch I’m a retired lady with style. I love to watch you because you work hard and are industrious. ❤
So nice to see your surroundings, the small towns with beautiful houses.
I like your vlogs like this, I don't think they are all over the place.
It's so nice to see Denmark covered with snow. It's looks so calm and quiet ❄️⛄❤️
I was loving the thrift shops! You can spray paint any mirror gold, then all in your collage will match
re-locating your large mirror to replace the tall cabinet would give light and the best garden view into the current quietness of the end zone and corner. also agree with other post about filling all corners with lamps for friendlier lighting. thanks for your inspiration over here in Canada xoxo
I think the dining table goes perfect with your dining chairs,a chandelier would look so pretty and brighten up the spacebut i know you have a different vision in mind😊
I love your thrifting and gardening videos, although the gardening ones are out of the question now. Beautiful choice of sofa, well done.
Hi Elise, what a beautiful Table. The darker color gives you some contrast, but I realize, you don’t like darker colors. Really great thrift finds. Thank you for taking us along with you.
Views of the area were lovely and gave me a feeling of the character of the houses etc.
Smart idea about the carpenter. Someone versatile that you can use for other projects. 👍
I agree waiting to paint the table is a good idea - by the time you have the skylight, wallpaper, other furniture, pictures etc, it might not even be a problem to be dark. Tablecloths are also an easier option! 😆
This was a great video - a week with Elise ❣️ Can’t wait to see what you do with your dining space 🥰. I totally agree about finding a carpenter that you can trust for future projects as well. And Especially with a skylight! It will make such a difference in that dark corner of your home. I cut and built a timber frame cabin on my own about a decade ago and found a great person to help me build the road and fill in the cabin walls roof etc. He is amazing! We have been able to mill our own lumber from the surrounding forest, find the best deals on materials. I am finally at the interior planning, slowed down due to my health, but he and my dad have been working together to help me complete this dream. He and his wife became my close friends. I feel so blessed to have found such an amazing, carpenter-lumberjack-of-all-trades. Best of luck on finding a lasting fit to help you with your future house projects.
Always a joy to watch your creative mind at work. You are so refreshing, nothing stays the same . Your colours are gorgeous your home exciting so rich and full of flavour . I love not knowing what you will bring forth next. Like your clothing a glamourous journey. Thank you Elise you are young beautiful and enthusiastic in life. Always a pleasure to wait for the next video. You keep discovering new creative parts of yourself and its so inspiring.Have the best year ever lovely lady. Blessings❤❤❤❤❤
