Mountain Splendor

 The dining room at Yosemite Lodge at the Falls, in California's Yosemite National Park is set in the picturesque backdrop of nearby Yosemite Falls. The natural waterworks tower over the lodge at a height of nearly 2,500 feet. The custom wood furniture, with its warm orange hues, perfectly complements the lodge's interior design of exposed beams and wood walls stretching towards the ceiling. Bright windows, left unadorned without curtains, let in plenty of natural light. Chairs are simple and sturdy, and evoke feelings of the mission style of design.


Southwest Style

 The Anasazi Restaurant and Bar at the Rosewood Inn in Santa Fe, New Mexico, is a reminder of the New Mexico people that lived in this area long before modern settlers arrived. Custom wood furniture from Toronto like the tables and chairs in a distressed western wood style compliment the adobe-style walls and decorations. Thick wood and thatch shutters keep out the light to make a cozy and intimate setting for diners. Natural stone highlights and rough-hewn timber beams evoke feelings of an Indian lodge house from ancient times. 


An English Treat

 The Harwood Arms pub, in London's Walham Groveneighborhood is the quintessential U.K. pub setting. Beautiful but simple wood tables and chairs, placed close together in the wide expanse of the dining room ensure that the venue is always filled with the voices and laughter of people enjoying their food and drink. Muted tones of gray and blue accent the white walls and arched ceilings, and adjacent windows let in streams of light from the nearby street.

No matter what your style, your dining room can be decorated to fit whatever feeling you are trying to capture. Much of the style can be accomplished simply through the right choice of furniture type and finish. Companies like Jamco Wood Products Ltd are able to custom design wood furniture which can be ordered in a variety of different styles to suit your taste, and with custom finishes, the sky is the limit in terms of personalizing your furniture to fit the space.

Mother, Blogger

As I already mentioned in my first article, I am a full-time housewife, tending to the daily house chores. Though I have my helper with me, I personally tend to my husband and children's needs. Being in the house all day long makes me bored to the max! It's a good thing, I love to read, and when I'm done reading, I go online and check my accounts in Facebook, Twitter,and email. I started creating my own blog a year ago, but due to my hectic schedule being an ICafe Owner at the same time due to my health problems I wasn't able to pursue it. Being a mother doesn't mean you cannot be a blogger. I am not a professional writer, but I can express my opinions and ideas in my own way and style of writing. I will be writing articles, not only for the mothers' interest but for the whole family as well. May you find my articles worth reading. You may expect for a weekly update on this site.
