Setting The Table

We left Maryland on Thursday evening and drove down to Gatlinburg, arriving around 3:00 am.  After catching up on some sleep, we loaded up Brent's Grandmother's dining room table and chairs and headed off to Zelda around 10:00 am.  The weather cooperated and the Duncan Phyfe dining room set looks great in the dining room at Zelda.  We were able to lower the chandelier and we also put a few other items we collected in the kitchen.  After a couple of hours cleaning and putting things in order at Zelda, we headed back over the the mountain to Blackbearry Ridge.  We have selected our new real estate agent and as soon as the contract is signed, we will link the address of the new list.  Below are the kitchen photos first followed by the dining room.

We had some period canisters in storage that were added to the counter top.  The hot pot rack to the right of the stove was purchased at IKEA outside Washington, DC.

Who would not want to celebrate family gatherings in this dining room?




I wish Maw Maw Conley could see this setting for her dining room table and chairs.




The table is ready to be set.

It is funny but the dining room table is back home in North Carolina.  It was made at Drexel Furniture Co in Marion, NC and shipped to Montgomery Ward in Baton Rouge, LA.  Then it was shipped to their home in Melville, LA.



The window to the left is the front of Zelda.
