Or a nice coffee or wine bar with extra storage.

A large green plant placed on the floor in front of windows + artwork or a gallery wall above table.

Do you have enough storage space in your kitchen? Do you want a family dining area or does the family eat in the dining room? Do you want a play area for your children until they are bigger? Would you enjoy having a small sofa where you can sit and read to the children? Ask yourself what your house may be missing which could be added to this area. You know your needs better than we do.

A larger table will come in handy when the kids are older. A rectangular one that sits 6. Even if you have a dining room. This would be a great place for the kids and their friends to have snacks or do homework or crafts or projects. Pull it out from the wall with seating all around. I'd look for something that can take licking and that's easy to clean.

Are you getting rid of that table and looking to put something completely different there, or keeping the table and just making the space look better?

Right now it looks like you have a lovely little nook for your kids to work on. This will always be useful whether it's for kids crafts, extra seating during the holidays, or just a quiet space to set up a side project.

We suggest an updated version of your little nook (pictured below)
