ABOUT Taryn Whiteaker

Taryn is the voice of style behind TarynWhiteaker.com (formerly Design, Dining and Diapers). Taryn established her brand over 12 years ago in hopes to inspire others with design tips, DIY tutorials, entertaining ideas and life as a mom! Taryn spent 8 year renovating their home in the greater Seattle area, transforming a basic builder grade home into a custom home that reflected their rustic modern style. That kicked off a journey and love for home renovation and DIY projects!

Today, Taryn documents her journey decorating her new European inspired home in Dallas taking one room and project at a time. When she isn’t demoing, styling and shooting projects, you can find her running around after her three kids (aged 8,10,12), at the Crossfit gym, exploring the outdoors, and enjoying any time she can get with her husband of 15 years.

Taryn has appeared as a guest on The Rachael Ray Show, and her work has been published in Better Homes & Gardens, Country Sampler, All You, Family Circle and online on Country Living, People,com, Elle Decor, InStyle and more.

Current snap shot of our main family room! We will Current snap shot of our main family room! We will be starting phase 1 in here later this year and I wanted to capture it as it stands now. Almost everything in here was either brought from our Washington home 3 years ago or bought second hand! Piece by piece this room has become a cozy space for our family over the last 3 years. The new stairs are staying and will work into the new design, I love them so much.

But I’m sure loving the dramatic before and after so far. Linking all sources.

I’ve been looking for the perfect accent chairs I’ve been looking for the perfect accent chairs for our family room for years! Any time we have guests over, or our whole family wants to hang out together, it always feels like we could use a few more seats to spread out and get comfy. I have had my eye on these gorgeous Vail accent chairs from @denvermodern and they didn’t disappoint. The leather is soft and high quality, they are wide and comfortable and the brass accents are chef’s kiss. They are perfection.
