Wall

This picture doesn't really do this new reclaimed wall justice.  The breakfast nook wall has been blank for almost all 4 years we have been in this house! It drove me crazy! I could never find the right decor for this tall wall. I had the idea to put reclaimed wood halfway up the wall.  I happened to run into a young man at a local home decor store when he was bringing some of his furniture pieces in for consignment.  I stopped him and asked if he by chance had any reclaimed wood that would work on a wall. He said he had just torn down wood from a local old cabin. He showed me a sample piece of the wood! It was meant to be! Perfect look, perfect shade of blue/gray wood.  He prepped the wood and a few weeks later, came to install the half wall in our breakfast nook.  I couldn't be more in love with the way it turned out.  Simple, but high impact.  Matching perfectly with my favorite cottage/modern chairs. Someday I will upgrade our table, but for now, we abuse this poor table.  So now my nook space is simple, but complete.
