Looking towards family room

And finally, the picture from MLS of the area, with no furniture.

The style of your set as well as the color doesn't go with the style of the kitchen. Too bad since looks like it's in perfect condition.

How about a light grey or black? You then need to figure out how to get more lighting.

Glass would be my preference but not yours..(I love the light shining on the sparkly glass)....how about a table painted white like your woodwork? Or a table with dark legs and white top or white legs and dark top like your cabinets?

I think glass would look incredible, but I have a glass desk in my office and it makes me twitch with all the fingerprints and dust.

I like the idea of white and dark in the same table, but I can't picture it nor have I seen a table like that before?

The least expensive fix would be to paint your existing set all black or all white.

A white chalk paint, distress the edges- sell the chairs and replace then with coverable parsons or something more modern and in keeping with your more contemporary finishes. You need a pop of color on your chairs and centerpiece. Look up chalk painting online.

This would be my choice because this style goes with everything and would look great on that floor.

The existing table/chairs is going to go in my basement - which is currently completely empty. i'll be buying new table/chairs for this area.

Tibbrix - where can I find something like that? I LOVE that table!

jenny, Google "rustic dining tables" or "reclaimed wood dining tables."

A good place to look is Craigslist, because new these are expensive. Custom made, they're even more expensive. However, they're rugged, gorgeous, go with any style, you'd have it forever, if it gets stained or scratched, it only adds to the charm.

I would do a darker wood table like the one posted above and slipcovered ivory chairs to lighten everything up and tie in the pretty painted fireplace mantle.

You could try to stain the table top and paint the base.

Check out the Benson table from Room and Board. They have a maple with grey stain, reclaimed chestnut, some quartz tops which could all work.

Paint the cabinets to brighten things up. Keep the table.

I have seen some really fantastic tables made from old rustic doors. Add legs and glass on top if you want to protect it. Try this google search

They are not that difficult to do but if not into diy it would be an easy job for a local woodworker.

If you have not seen salvage dawgs of black dog salvage take a look they have some really fantastic reclaimed wood projects but they are pricy. The door tables are not that expensive. You can buy pre made legs that screw into the frame the door is mounted to.
