I have two interior design new year's resolutions this year for my home.
The first is several projects on the outside of my house including a new roof, new gutters, and exterior painting. I will be exploring ways to incorporate my love for Chinoiserie outdoors. Perhaps a Chinese blue door, blue and white porcelain, or Chinese Chippendale woodwork?

My second resolution is to upgrade a few things in my dining room, including a new table and chairs and new window treatments. I am dying to finally replace my traditional mahogany Queen Anne chairs with Chinese Chippendale ones and I am so excited. I am still quite undecided on a dining table, so you can follow along on my search for the perfect table to pair with Chinese Chippendale chairs.
I hope everyone has a fun New Year's Eve planned. Mine will include dinner, Champagne, singing, and dancing with lots of friends, ending in a pajama New Year's Day brunch tomorrow at a French restaurant.
