come and get it…..

I love our dining table – it is the heart of our house. It sits right in the middle of the front room – the family room and kitchen area and is always in use by someone or something. I love it  when it looks like this…

dining table It is clear of clutter and the chairs are all neatly placed around it – but perhaps it is lonely - I think it wonders where everyone is.

At least once a week it looks like this…

P8030317and that is ok too – it gives a sense of productivity to the table – it hums with energy and the pleasure of jobs getting done

Mostly though, it looks like this…P8070339 Full of bits and pieces of our everyday lives. Works in progress, shopping, bits of washing, computers…you know, stuff! I don’t think it minds being like this – I like to think it feels a part of things, a part of our daily lives.

But for me, the most pleasure comes when it looks like this…
