I am so excited to make over our breakfast nook! We moved here to our forever home just over two years ago, and making over the breakfast nook from bland and blah to bright and cheery has been on my to-do list. With kids, however, I want my window blinds to be both #safeandstylish, and I’ve partnered with Smith & Noble to get the perfect window treatments for my makeover (plus, scroll down for a huge Smith & Noble Giveaway and discount details). Here’s my breakfast nook right now:
Breakfast Nook Makeover
Our home was previously a rental, so it’s not surprising that they went, uh, neutral and inexpensive with their decor. Overall, our home is in great condition! But style-wise? I always feel ungrateful for complaining about our home, because we really lucked out when we found it. But ugh…the boob light! The tacky valance! The dingy yellow semi-gloss paint on the walls! Calgon, take it away! But, I can’t blame the previous owners for the table and chairs, a Craigslist find. And while we love the walnut wood, the upholstery also fits in with the rental “theme”! So I can’t wait to spruce up the chairs with some bright fabric, plus the blank wall to the side with some fresh, non-shiny paint, and some fun artwork.
Plus, there’s the view. We love our neighbors! But adding some window treatments would be a favor to both of us. They have a two-story home, so I’m sure they can see right into our house. With window coverings, they won’t have to look into our window to see our mess in the playroom, which is next to the breakfast nook. And they won’t have to see me in the morning with crazy hair! As for us, if we had some nice window coverings, we will not longer have to look at our garbage cans while we’re eating. Not very appetizing. I can’t wait to add some style and privacy to our breakfast nook, but with that, I also want it to be safe. My girls are 8 years old, not exactly babies or toddlers (sniff sniff!). But we do spend a lot of time in the breakfast nook. It’s right next to the chairs, onto which they climb to look at the moon or to watch a family of wild turkeys jump over the fence. Now that they’re older, I don’t supervise them 100% of the time. So adding some cordless window treatments will give me one less thing to worry about.
Smith & Noble worked with me to find the perfect shades for my breakfast nook. I’m just waiting for them to arrive! I opted for honeycomb shades that can open from both the top and bottom, and yes, they are cordless!
I’ll be updating this post soon with the full after. But while we wait, here’s an offer to get $50 each windo when you upgrade to Smith & Noble window treatments made with #WindowSafety in mind. Plus, you can enter to win $1000 in window treatments from Smith & Noble!
