The Chinoiserie Dining Room

Shelley Johnstone

 
This is a fun dining room by Shelley Johnstone that combines chinoiserie and beachy/tropical elements. I love a round skirted table. Interesting that she combines rattan Chinese Chippendale chairs with grotto shellback chairs.

The ceiling is lacquered in a sky blue - haint blue ceilings are not just for porches anymore. The capiz shell chandelier and shell chairs are both beach inspired choices.

Lots of stripes - the chair cushions and wallpapered walls. I love pink and the pink pillows, piece of art, and banding on the table skirt and curtains are lovely touches.

Here is another view of this room where you see her use of blue and white Chinese porcelain on the console.
