Dining Room

RUSTIC MODERN DINING ROOM!

October 17, 2012

What a great dining room!  I like all of the varying textures, the natural neutral color palette, the liberal use of all things wood and all the while maintaining an air of sleek modern.  I call this style rustic modern.  All of those elements that technically would be used in rustic style decor but that have been fashioned in a clean line modern way.  Understand what I mean?

Wood paneled walls and wood slatted ceilings work in this space (painted wood slats on walls always look good in my view) to create a cozy feel to the space.  The clean lines and subtle curves Danish furniture add a vintage mid century modern vibe to this eating area as well.  Light colored wood floors blend in with the walls.  I love the lighting too…large glass and wire grid pendant lights too.

I like.  Take a look.

I absolutely love the French doors with the trellis pattern detail. (above)

What do you think of this dining room?  Would you call it rustic modern or something else?  What do you like?  What don’t you like?  Please advise in the comments below!

Happy Wednesday!

P.S.  Had a mini Presidential debate watching “thing” at my house last night.  Served some nice cold white wine (it is so hot here in Los Angeles), put out a nice fruit and cheese plate, and ordered in pizza and salad from one of my favorite restaurants…Cheebo. Had a great time watching the debate and then laughing about the news commentary on CNN after!

P.P.S. Later this week, I’m going to a very small private cocktail event here in Los Angeles where I get to meet a big huge name in the fashion industry – from here on out “The Icon”.  I was invited so I could be introduced to “The Icon”.  The cocktail party is oh so small.  “The Icon” is a huge commercial success in fashion and I’ve read about how he got started as inspiration when I was starting my home furnishings collection.  “The Icon’s” team wants to introduce me to him because of the COCOCOZY textiles collection.  I’m not supposed to talk about any of the specifics I don’t think…so I’ll keep very quiet now as to who “he” is.  Don’t know what to wear though.  Yikes! There will be a handful of famous people there too.  Oy va voy. I have a cute leather top (but might be too hot)…I also have an adorable navy and black sparkling mini skirt  (but it looks better with opaque black tights and it is too hot for that)…I think the weather is going to thwart my stylish wardrobe plans.  Please have the weather drop to 60 degrees overnight so that I can wear my cute fall outfits!  Please.

P.P.P.S.  Happy Wednesday again!

    LOVE this look! Rustic elegance is definitely my favorite mix, and I feel that this rustic dining room has lots of elegant touches, like the fur covers on a few of the chairs.

    Overall, I love this room. I’m not crazy about the fur covers because I love the sleek, mid-century modern chairs design they are on. I’d be happier seeing the fur as pillows placed here and there within this room.

    What an incredible dining room. The mixing and matching of all those textured chairs with the long table is just fabulous. Makes me want to throw out all my chairs and start from scratch!!

    … perhaps “Retroistic”…or “Urbangrunge”… Interesting space, but the fur lost me.

    LOVE to know who “The ICON” is and how the meeting went. 🙂

    All the best

    Oh how funny…
    I’ve enjoyed reading your blog for a while. I’m an interior designer in Chico, CA and have gotten some good ideas from you. But I used to live in LA and my good friend is the manager/part owner of Cheebo. Reading that you ordered from there brought back memories. Thanks! Sage ([email protected])

Behind-the-scenes: Fun work trip to visit the COCOBehind-the-scenes: Fun work trip to visit the COCOCOZY bedding collection at the Welspun showroom in New York. Met with some buyers, had a fun time with the Welspun team, then capped off the weekend with a visit with friends. It is a long process to get bedding in stores across the country...showing the collections at textiles market is one of the first steps!
If you're interested in learning how I have gotten @cococozy products into stores around the country over the years including in major retailers...follow along...just one entrepreneur's journey. :)

Today is my birthday but...I don’t want to celeb Today is my birthday but...I don’t want to celebrate...I want to help.
I want to make a meaningful impact in our greater Los Angeles community suffering from the fires. I invite you to join me in transforming birthday wishes into support for one local organization on the ground in Pasadena/Altadena.
I have made a contribution today already to the LA Fire Relief Fund created by @victorybiblechurch in Pasadena. They are actively assisting families in need in both Pasadena and Altadena who have been affected by the devastating Eaton Fire.
Although I don't have a personal connection to Pastor DeCuir or the church, I was searching for an organization that is helping in the Altadena area. A well respected civil rights attorney I follow @leemerrittesq is on the ground helping the church members and community members with legal services in the wake of the fires. I hope by contributing to their efforts, we can extend a helping hand to those facing significant challenges during this difficult time
To donate, please visit their website at https://vbcpasadena.org/ (link in bio as well). Every contribution, no matter the size, brings hope and relief to those who need it most. Tell them you heard about them from me.
Your generosity to the Los Angeles community is the best birthday gift I could ask for.

Happy New Year! 🎉✨ As we step into this freshHappy New Year! 🎉✨ As we step into this fresh chapter, I’m reminded of the beauty of starting anew and I like recommitting to goals at the top of the year. Nothing set in stone but just an overall vision of what I'd like to do and who I would hope to help along the way.
This year, my mantra is: **dream big, act boldly, treasure the small joys, continue to lead with kindness and to have as much empathy as possible for others **. Just a few things...😂
I’m also deeply committed to helping people who follow along to achieve their dreams. I'll be curating captivating interior design inspiration with COCOCOZY that will hopefully give you ideas and dreams for your own space. I will also be empowering you to realize the value of your influence with Chirpyest by earning cash back for sharing and shopping. I hope to be open about the journey of the COCOCOZY product line. I want to share real time behind the scenes how the line is being built and how we are growing Chirpyest; both examples of the not so linear journey of building businesses from the ground up. I hope these stories spark you to push your own boundaries and shake out of your comfort zones.
Lastly, in 2025, I’m committed to surrounding myself with people who have a positive vibe about them while striving to be that same light for others. Luckily, I have a great start on this with an amazing family and fantastic group of friends - a fantastic support network.
My wish for you in 2025: May this year bring you clarity, courage, and the confidence to pursue all that makes you happy.
What’s one thing you’re committing to in 2025? Let’s inspire each other in the comments! 💬❤️
Let's get to this...am ready 2025!
