I admire your enthusiasm! There are several projects I should be tackling for my own dining room, but instead am procrastinating and enjoying your progress ;) I was thinking the same as Beth though... It will be much easier to paint those chairs without the current coverings on them, and then you won't have to worry that you're missing little spots on the edges that could possibly show after you recover them with new fabric. Are you going to do the recovering yourself? I have dining chairs to recover as well, but they're the kind with springs and I can't seem to find chairs similar enough to mine to know how to actually go about upholstering them. Similar chairs seem to be a real hassle to cover, so I'm hoping to find someone who can help me.

also about purple furniture despite that I bought it already?!

It looks fantastic, you are amazing!

Do you love it so far?

i do but a bit not sure if the white furniture should be there

what do you guys are saying?

I like the white chairs and the above pictures, you're doing great.

Following! Looks great so far! :)

Lovely! I would love to see a photo from further away. I have been watching your progress and am truly impressed.

wow! hmorton you made day ! i m doing that for the 1sr time in my life !i ll take another photo

In my opinion it looks great. I love the way the lamp is balanced by the glass vases and the color of the vases look great against the white. The painting and the glass relate because of the color. I am very far from knowing how to decorate, but I do know when I like something and I like your grouping and bigger changes you have made. The room looks personal to me, that someone loves each item and made a personal statement. The bigger question is do you like it?

I LOVE IT and I want to THANK YOU to YOU ALL. I till work on chairs.soon update photos!

This has been so fun to watch your transformation! I hem and haw and think and you just DO! Love it so far! Do you have knobs for your dresser? I think something in gold would tie back to the mirror/black dresser nicely without being too stark of a contrast.

Nice room.

The small round/octagon table/cabinet w/lamp on it seems out of place; perhaps it could be repurposed to a bedroom.

A "sofa table/desk" (wide but not deep) for something between those chairs against the wall would be a better fit.

If you need lamps there, choose tall a tall slim pair and center any art between them with the center of the art lower than the frame now hung on that wall and have any framed art or mirror sized for the space -- not too small in a large space and not too large in a small space.

Not a fan of carpet or rug beneath a dining table ... not ever (at least not if the table is actually used for dining).

Yes the knobs are beautiful. You've created a whole new room and it's wonderful, can't wait to see it completed. Kudos to you!!!!

It truly is amazing how fast you are working. I love the knobs and pulls. I especially like the mixing of the different types of hardware. The black relates to all the accessories and the glass and gold add the needed sparkle. I think you do know what you like and what looks good together.

I have one little noticing and that is paint drips. To make a paint job look really good there should be a clean sharp line between wall and moldings/ceilings etc. I would carefully go around the room and very carefully do a micro clean-up. It sound OCD but what an amazing difference it makes. The job goes from amateur to professional in seconds. I try and be a careful painter but always fail, so I spend a lot of time tidying up my paint jobs and always feel so happy after it's done.

With the radiator below the window, you might consider wood shutters or vertical wood blinds -- either of which would stop at the bottom of the window frame.

Wondering how it is going? Hoping to see more photos soon.

simon it's lovely! great job w/the chairs my man! love the black and white and new addition. pat yourself on the back. tres chic mon amie

try removing the clock, for now, remove the smaller vases, and lets see what those two pictures look live above that table. you don't want a cluttered look,,,so play around with it. maybe the big one off to the left/center,,,and the smaller one and clock to the right.

this one

remove the little one on table. move lamp to the left so the cord isn't visible under table. move the vases to the right. take another picture.

can you hang the smaller pic along w/this one too? put them on top of each other, vertically.

Love what you are doing Simon! So fun to watch! I don't think I'd hang that painting. It's a little small. Can you stand it on the table and lean it against the wall? Maybe on an easel?

much better w/the light on that side. gold frame still needs to be lower. try that first. if it needs more, maybe get the smaller one above it.

look at how these consoles are styled. this first one would look great in your room.

something a little bit longer for that wall would be nice.

on all of these pics, look how they've balanced the items, placement behind the console and types of items used. You one little picture is too small by itself, but doing both will fill in the spot better. try some plant items in your vase like they've done in these pictures.

look at this table, painted black, and this chair,,,all in black. love these for your room

better. what do you think? you need those two little stool/ottoman things under that console like they do in the pics

found one w/your purple. a velvet might be nice.

pouf,,,

look at these others and how they've done it. storage cubes would work

measure them and make sure they both fit. but should be ok. you don't want something too big. just enough to fit comfortably under the table.

I think you will get more responses if you start a new post. And I would love t see a completed picture of your finished dinning room.
