Aspenhome adds style to casual dining

Casual dining is no longer limited to kitchen breakfast nooks or dining rooms. It is flowing into other parts of our homes to meet our changing lifestyles, according to research done by aspenhome.

Jena Hall, vice president of merchandising and design, states that "casual dining is moving from traditional dining rooms to great rooms, master bedrooms with sitting areas creating suites, and even conservatories. In the master suite, casual dining provides a place where we can enjoy our morning paper and coffee before starting our day. In the great room it's the perfect spot for dessert with family and friends or casual grazing during a Super Bowl party or after a bridge game. And for those of us who like to bring outdoor dining in, glass enclosed patios and the new conservatories are ideal."

Aspenhome's Pinnacle Award-winning Young Classics collection easily makes the casual dining transition from room to room. It is a popular choice as homeowners are adding glass-enclosed rooms so they can enjoy outdoor dining in a bug-free and climate-controlled environment.

The Young Classics dining group is enhanced by a cobblestone black distressed finish with an aged antique look. It offers varied pieces to serve multiple needs, including the Chesapeake table, Liberty table, dining armchair, two-seat bench, barrel host chair, Liberty server, Liberty hutch, Liberty buffet and an oval mirror.

Plus all serve up healthy portions of the special "ah" features like self-storing leaves in the tables, built-in appliance power outlets and felt-lined drawers for silver storage in the server.

It's collections include bedroom, dining, home office, home entertainment, stationary and motion leather seating, and occasional furnishings.

Why did my bird of paradise plants quit blooming?

They were in bloom when we planted them five or six years ago, and they bloomed the following year as well. But they have not bloomed again.
