    I like two chandeliers over a table - here's an ideabook just for fun. I think it's hard to get a sense of how they look because the rooms are still bare and they're disappearing against the white walls a bit. To me they also look a little high.

    What is the height of the table and is that where you plan to use it? Perhaps the photo angle is making the table seem short but to my eyes it does appear too short for 2 chandeliers.

    I am fine with 2 chandeliers over a table, just not able to visualize it with the table you have, especially without the rest of your decor. How any inches above the table top are those chandeliers hung?

    @sam thanks for the idea book! Any ideas for decor?..

    @jcorn The table height is 30", it is 88" long (can be extended to 108") the distance between the table and the chandeliers is 35"

    In this picture, you have a country style table, which is very nice; two different styles of chairs??? may not even be for dining area. My thought is that the chandeliers may not be right for your style?
    Two is fine with longer table. Can you post photo of chairs to be used & any other furniture in dining room? Then we can provide decor advice.

    @sharon I don't have the chairs yet, but I think I'm going for the mix and match. The chairs on the photo are there just so we have something to seat on... I wanted to get this kind of look:

    Also, the orange "curtain" is not going to stay there, we are still looking for curtains, but needed something to protect (and lower electricity bills) from the AZ sun...

    IF DINNING TABLE IS LARGE THEN 2 CHANDELIERS IS OKAY , IF DINNING TABLE IS TOO SMALL OR ROUND OR SQUARE THEN ONLY ONE CHANDELIERS IS ENOUGH.

    Since your table can be expanded to nine feet, then two chandeliers are a must, especially when small, as yours are. But they do need to be 30" from the bottom of the fixtures to the table when you don't have natural light available.

    Looks like you have a concrete floor--have you thought of an acid stain? Makes it look like leather...

    I like your inspiration photos and it looks like you can achieve that look with your table (are you using the red tolix chairs and the other chair also ?). I think I'd like to see a little contrast on the walls so the chandeliers pop put a little more like in the second inspiration photo.

    Here's a room with a similar vibe - I like the collection of antique mirrors/frames on the wall.

    Hi, I figured the chairs out. What style did you have in mind for chairs? Mix & match can be fun & lots of great buys at garage sales, 2nd hand stores which can be sanded & painted in fun colours or similar colours to table legs. Black grounds the room, so that is an option for chairs as well. I would say high gloss.
    I had always wanted ladder back & found these @ 2nd hand store for very good price.

    That's the kind of style my house is I would have put them closer in the middle in a cluster one higher one lower and mix it with some industrial pendents too. The way you have it there looks good too! Great job
