new apartment photos: dining nook

We finally had a sunny day where I was home and the apartment was more or less clean. So after a cup of coffee I got out the camera and took a few photos of our new apartment. I'll show each area in separate blog posts.
The dining nook:

This is our dining nook. The view is from the living room but in the first photo you can see a glimpse of the kitchen to the left. The space a slight challenge since the ceiling light socket does not hang where we wanted center to be, so the light is hung more right than what we'd like. However, we hung it low and offset it with a center-placed candle and I think it looks ok.
We got the painting on the back wall from a thrift store, the artist is from Göteberg, Sweden. The painting on the right was given to us from G's parents, and the deer skull was thrifted.
We still need dining room chairs, that's on the "To Do" list but for now we're using some outdoor chairs that need new cushions, an old wooden chair that is dangerously close to falling apart, and a white IKEA chair.
Sine the table is teak and heat sensitive we using black leather place mats. They're simple and don't overpower the table.
The side table in the back holds mainly office supplies, candles, napkins, and coasters. On the top is a whiskey station so G can grab a quick drink, our favorite decanter, some small champagne glasses, and a horn bottle opener.

The champagne glasses are 10 SEK (for all four!) from a flea market and the bottle opener is from when G lived in Zambia.

We're making an effort to eat all of our meals at the dining room table instead of the couch! Ha. It's pretty nice and I can't wait to get real chairs!
