Before: The homeowners really dislike their dining room because it looks onto dirty dishes in the kitchen and an adjoining bathroom plus the shelves are full of collectibles hidden behind curtains.

After: A rich accent color on the walls along with etching spray and skeleton leaves on the glass cabinet doors hide the mess and bring in the Craftsman love of nature.

After: Inexpensive fabric inserts give the lower walls softness and depth while painting the ceiling fixture softens it as well. Slipcovers tie the country chairs into the new Craftsman look.
