Help with Dining Room Update

7 years ago
last modified: 7 years ago

Hello, I need help deciding how to update my dining room table and chairs. I inherited this Queen Anne style set from my grandmother and I want to keep the table for sentimental reasons, but I hate the black lacquered chairs that make if feel so "1980s". I have a black distressed china hutch that I love and want to use as inspiration. I'm thinking I would like to make the set more eclectic or farmhouse style, but I'm having a really hard time deciding what chairs would look good. I'm also open to painting the table, but afraid to take on anything too crazy. I've been looking at metal black Trattoria chairs and considering black chalk paint for the base of the table with some distressing. What do you think?

**Sidenote: I know the rest of the dining room looks bland, but this is a rent house, so unfortunately, I can't paint or get rid of the carpet (though I soooo wish I could).
