20 Years of Traditional Home: McBournie and Faudree
The breakfast nook nestles into a window bay, the alcove given architectural interest with a pair of antique wooden brackets found by Beth at a flea market. Chairs were slipcovered in tweed and banded in red piping. The table and chairs rest on a hand-braided rug that forms a series of circles.
