Thank you for joining us on our journey as we restore our forever farmhouse and begin our homestead!

DISCLAIMER: My husband and I recently bought a neglected 34-acre farm with several barns, buildings, and a two-story farmhouse. Our plans are to restore the farm and farmhouse to its former glory all while adding our own individual style and design. We decided to vlog the entire renovation process for our own personal records and for future generations. We are in no way experts in renovating nor do we claim to be professionals. All Lewis Acres Homestead videos are for entertainment purposes only. We recommend you always consult professional experts when completing any home renovations and wear proper protective gear.
I am not a professional I am only sharing what I have learned and my opinion.
The rug looks perfect for the room! The chairs were a steal for $12 each and also go great with the table. Great finds! You and Ben are doing a fantastic job restoring your home!
Thank you! ❤️ I know, I couldn't believe it!
Your dining room is really beautiful! I love the rug, and those chairs were definitely a steal at that price. I think the high chair looks great right where it is. Everything is so beautiful!! 😍😍
S C O R E - on those beautiful chairs, talk about a deal of a lifetime! The rug is also beautiful and works perfectly, in the room, with the table and chairs. You have very beautiful, unique pieces, I love the clock and crystal bowl. You are a thrift store/yard sale shopping Queen! Nicely done - it's gorgeous!
The high chair can be floated in just about any space, where you have it, is fine.
I know! I couldn't believe it! Thank you so much!
Love the simplicity of the dining room. Not overly posh. This is a farmer's family dining room, every one is welcome....e
Thank you so much! Thats exactly right! I want it to feel welcoming to everyone.
Love the rug!! Ethan Allen was a quality brand. Your home is beautuful. I used both S & H Green Stamps and Gold Bond stamps when I was younger. I would put the highchair by the closet if you don't get in and out a lot. That would leave space for a buffet by window too.
Thank you so much! That is so cool! I had never seen any before. I will have to try it there!
Ethan Allen still is a quality brand and one chair is five or six hundred dollars.
That rug is perfect for the room it's vintage feel is just right.
Thank you!
New or old, the rug is gorgeous and took the room next level. You and Ben have done a tremendous job in making the farmhouse so homey. I'm loving seeing your reno journey. God bless 🙏🏽
Thank you so much!! ❤️ I definitely didn't think I would like the rug that much but after seeing it in the room I love it!
Love what you have done to your dining room so far…and your rug and chairs what a “GREAT” price!!! I love the colors of both and rug and chairs…they look so good together…Nice job!!! ❤😊
Dark woods and antiques are my favorite. I love the simplicity of this room, yet elegant.
Thank you so much!
The room all together is gorgeous .
I've been really enjoying the progress on the dining room. Absolutely perfect choices! The green stamps took me way back! I'm only 55, but I remember as a little girl, my mother letting me lick the stamps and put them in the books. Then we would take the booklets, filled with the stamps, to the S&H Store in the largest town nearest us. You could buy all kinds of things with them! We would save stamps for special purchases. So, we would plan our next buy and save them up for that item. It was so exciting! lol
Thank you so much for watching and following along with our progress! That is so cool, and such a special memory!
Beautiful dining room ....great choice on the chairs, rug and china cabinet............love it all.
Thank you so much! ❤️
Your dining room looks gorgeous. I love all the thoughtfulness that went into everything. The highchair should just float around the room. Maybe add a plant on the seat when not in use, kind of like a plant stand.
Thank you! That is a great idea!
I'm so excited for you two!! You finally have somewhere to sit and eat like you said. The rug and chairs are beautiful!!
I know, it almost doesn't seem real. Thank you!!!
In the kitchen
Unfortunately there isn't any room in the kitchen.
Love it all!!! I love the linens in the cabinet, what a great idea. The high chair is perfect where it is at. Y’all are doing an amazing job. 😊
Thank you so much! ❤️
I love the high chair in this room :) I'd probably put it to the left of the fireplace, on the closet door side. The floor and the rug are beautifully complementary and the large and historically appropriate windows will always be so lovely.
Thank you so much! The windows are one of my favorite things about the house.
Looks great! I love your closet! I think the high chair looks fine where it is. An idea to cover your electrical box is to use a vintage linen with an antique hanger. I was gifted a vintage grain feed sack for Christmas and I had no way to hang so I found an antique pants hanger on Etsy then hung it as a decoration in my laundry room. But you might any variety of linen that would be long enough to cover the electrical box 😊
I think I would angle the China cabinet and move the high chair between the cabinet and the window. If I never have a home like yours on earth, I hope I can have one on my Heavenly farm some day!
It’s so amazing what all you all have done. It’s a beautiful room. The rug and chairs are amazing. You could do a gallery wall on your blank wall with plates and platters, if that’s something you would like. I think I would keep the high chair where it is for the time being. Great job!!
Thank you so much! I would love to do something like that!! We are trying to think of ways to make sure whatever we hang there is extremely secure since it will be a high traffic area. I know people will knock stuff off the wall/break it.
Love the dinning room just like you have it. As for the highchair move it every couple says and you will find a spot you like it. ❤
Thank you so much! That is a great idea!
I love the rug. It’s better quality than anything manufactured today. Just beautiful. 😍
Home Depot will mix it for you.
Thank you so much! I totally agree, it is such a heavy duty rug.
I love the mantel clock. The chairs and rug were a great deal. They look really nice together in the dining room. You are doing a really good job. Everything looks great together.
Thanks so much! 😊
That high chair is beautiful, I would definitely keep it out on display. Maybe when you are entertaining move it in the corner by the closet. The dining room looks so lovely!
Thank you so much!
Yay you flipped the door, I knew it would look better! This room is beautiful, that rug...chef kiss. The electrical box, can you paint it the same shade as the walls?
Yes! I love it opens away from the fireplace now instead of into it! Thank you! We thought of that but haven't decided anything for sure yet.
If you get what you love it will always go together, even patterns, we automatically are drawn to things that go, even if it is just cause you love it, that is what is called a curated home, getting things you love that goes together if not in one room but another, patterns, colors, things you love go....I believe in timeless lovely things and somehow they go together, if it is from wal-mart a rummage sale or high end store....
I'm in love with your dining room..it is gorgeous..can't wait to see it with everything completed..great job!!!
Thank you so much!! I can't wait either.
Oh my goodness rug and chairs are perfectly rich ! They work so well in the dining room,which you have placed pieces so perfectly also. The art and collections with your china cabinet are lovely
. High chair looks great where it is ,or you could put by the electric box and slide over when needed to open closet door? I'm loving the fact you can now live in this room! What a bargain you got for fb marketplace and little drive paid off. ❤❤
Thank you so much! ❤️ That is a great idea, I'll have to try it there! Me too! It feels so weird to be able to sit at a table to eat now, lol. Yes, the drive totally paid off!
Love the rug & the chairs are fabulous 😍 Great choice!!
You could hang a mirror over the fuse panel, something to reflect the light, something long. The room looks great, you must feel great to claim another space. I have a formal dining room and we love it for the holidays
I will have to figure out something. We tried one of the mirrors we had but it just looked awkward since it isn't centered on the wall. I can't wait to use our dining room around the holidays.
Love the table and chairs ❤Ethan Allen is great furniture!The dining room is coming together beautifully ❤️
Thank you! ❤️ I didn't realize it was such good furniture until I started researching it.
Such a beautiful dinning room !! I have China cabinet but mine was off white when I bought it !! So happy I found your channel !!❤
That's a great deal on the chairs😊
Haha my comment on your last video I said you will find a nice used one!!! Called that, but you had to one up and get Ethan Allen chairs!!! Just one brand new chair at Ethan Allen today is $500-600...for one.
I know, you called it! I had no idea they were such good chairs until I started researching them! I can't believe I got such a great deal.
You have done a beautiful job choosing pieces for this dining room. It all goes with the era of the home. I noticed you have a beautiful pitcher in your closet, would look gorgeous on your dining table with flowers come spring time. I happen to like the highchair in the dining rm.
Thank you! Yes, I cannot wait to put some flowers in it this spring/summer.
What a beautiful space and you definitely have the touch for decorating for your house. So nice. I really enjoy following you.
Thank you so much! Thanks for watching and following along! ❤️
I like seeing the old high chair exactly where it is. I love the linens in the china cabinet! The rug is beautiful and I can't believe you got those chairs for such a great price! The room is amazing!
Thank you so much! I know, I couldn't believe it either!
Love how your dining room is coming along❤
The rug may be a Karastan rug.
I purchased the same chairs from Ethan Allen in the late 80’s.
Congrats on your purchase.
Thank you so much! ❤️
I'll I have to look it up.
That is so cool!
The chairs are beautiful! I love it! Thank you for sharing!
Thank you! ❤️ Thanks for watching!
I like the highchair right where you have it! ❤ The dining room looks so cozy and welcoming.
Thank you!! 😊
The more pattern, the better as long as they compliment each other! Looks great!
I think so too! Thank you so much!
Those chairs are beautiful
Thank you!!
It's all beautiful!! The glass piece the flower frogs are in is probably a "compote". I had to do a double take at how nicely the chairs were upholstered. So much nicer than today's style of decorating where everything has to match. I love the simplicity of the table. You can come decorate my home any time you're free! LOL!
Thanks for the info! I know, whoever did it did a great job. Thank you so much! Anytime, lol.
ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS!!!!! My daughter has a Duncan Phyfe dining room table and I think that style would look perfect in your dining room. Hers came with her house but I see them on FB Marketplace occasionally. Perfect rug and chairs and awesome price! Love how the black on the edge of the rug and on chairs pick up mantle. Looking forward to seeing the finished trim! High chair is perfect where you put it. I'm old enough to know what Green Stamps were lol.
Thank you so much!! I cannot wait to see it completed with the trim and ceiling either!
Your dining looks great! Beautiful! I would put the high Chair in a closet.
Thank you!! I wish we could. As of right now we don't have a closet big enough for it to fit in.
Loving that rug , love the brass candle sconce you briefly showed too , I would wallpaper the electrical box to blend in , I know before you said you were worried about doing that ; you won’t regret it ,I’ve done similar myself , I’d move the nursery chair out the room in the meantime …. All looking fabulous 👏👏👏
Thank you so much! I am thinking about it. Since its not centered on the wall it is super hard to hang anything to cover it without it looking weird. Was it hard to remove the wallpaper from the panel when you changed the wallpaper? I know it has to be applied with a special adhesive.
Hi just messaged you back on your Instagram 😀
Love your caring home
Thank you! ❤️
Those chairs are amazing!!
Thank you!!!
Love your design of all your rooms❤
Thank you!! 😊
I love that rug. The dining room looks beautiful. I have my great grandmothers bibles she she kept in her draw strong purse. It also had a large folded newspaper clipping that said rhe War hlHas Ended. I framed that & have it on the shelf in the guest room. I love stuff like that.
Thank you so much! That is so special! Me too!
Maybe try a tapestry over the electrical panel.
That is a great idea!
You've done a fantastic job!
Thank you!
Oh my goodness! The room is gorgeous! Love that rug and the chairs - love everything you did. I'm a visual person and get very excited over stuff like this. lol.
Thank you so much! Me too. I love seeing it all come together.
Just truly gorgeous! ❤
Thank you so much!
Try Sherwin Williams’s Dover White for the trim. Against your wallpaper I think it might be perfect. It’s a creamy white.
Thanks for the suggestion! I'll look at it next time I'm at the hardware store.
I love eclectic….,,. Doesn’t have to all be one style to look fantastic
I totally agree! Thank you!
@@LewisAcresHomestead everything y’all have done I totally love…. Everything looks so homey and inviting 🥰
Wow. It's all perfect.. beautiful.... ,,🎉
Thank you so much! 😀
Ethan Allen is gooooodd stuff. Nice find!!
Thank you!
The room looks so warm and inviting!
Thank you! ❤️
I would suggest you do something a little daring and do the trim in the matted black. I see that pole next to the fireplace and the black makes things pop you know makes the other items pop you should try at least one of the trims in black and see if you like itfireplace
I don't know if I'm brave enough to do black but it would be so pretty! There will be black trim around the fireplace at least.
Great score on the rug and chairs! As for the high chair, is there a spot in the kitchen? Your dining room is looking so pretty and the high chair sort of takes away the pretty vibe. If I had to pick a spot, I would put your china cabinet into the corner and then have the chair sitting next to it. ❤😊
Thank you! Unfortunately, there isn't room in the kitchen. I will have to try that!
I would put it up.
Looks beautiful
Thank you!!
LOVE IT!!!!!!!!❤❤
Thank you!!!! ❤️❤️❤️
I love the high chair I have one out that is almost like yours.
Thank you so much! I love that it can also fold down into a table. It is so practical!
Wow! It’s beautiful! I love how it all turned out. Very nice ❤❤
Thank you so much! 😊
So beautiful ❤
Thank you! ❤️
I had a friend create a wall hanging that covered our electrical panel. Lightweight so could be moved bout of way easily
That is a great idea!
it's beautiful!!!!!!!
Thank you!!!
Beautiful
Thank you!
lovely
Thank you!
Just beautiful I love your style and colors 😊
Thank you so much!
Looking so good! I believe in the beginning they wouldn't insure your home. Am hoping you now have home owners insurance.
Thank you so much! ❤️
It looks lovely. It's very warm and inviting. What time is dinner? LOL
Thank you so much!! It is ready when you are, lol.
Gorgeous area rug!!! So I want to know about that high chair???????
Thank you! I don't really know much about it. I got it at an antique store for $40. It is suppose to have a sticker on the back of characters or something but it is gone. It is very practical though because it also folds down into a table/desk.
