dining room table ideas

6 years ago

I have a 17x13 DR. And need DR table & chairs. Just can’t decide. We put a goldish wallpaper (looks nicer in person. And a bronze chandelier. Can you tell me what would look good. My house is a more on transitional side. We redid 1st floor. And can’t seem to finish DR. I will include some kitchen pics an LR so you have idea.

    Are you doing farmhouse glam or modern contemporary? This would help me make a better suggestion for you. I see countless ideas, narrowing down to one is definitely the hard part. The space is dark so I would lighten things up with a rug and either light wood, white painted wood or even glass style dining table. ;)

    Dining room furniture is a big ticket item. You'll own them a lot longer than the wallpaper and the chandelier so I wouldn't try to match those. Instead buy what you love and then decorate based on the furniture. Also, you already have high back upholstered chairs in you kitchen so if this was my house, I'd go for a different look. Maybe a wood open back with an upholstered seat.

    I love farmhouse tables (Restoration Hardware my favorite). But want a timeless table something I won’t get sick of. So don’t want to go to modern. But want some glam too. My kitchen table is dark wood with white leather chairs and nail heads. I was thinking a large cream rug. Just not sure what to do for table. This is why I only have chandelier and empty DR for 2 years 😢. I can’t decide. And need to make a decision to complete this room. So any ideas would be great!

    You have an AMAZING HOME! Anything you include in your dining room has to be great quality. I was able to find these and honestly, you can go a number of ways depending on the style of your home:

    All of the above recommendations by Courtney Thomas Design are beautiful and would work well in your dining room. I'm sure you'll make a great choice either way. #affiliatelink

    IMO the table is fun but the chairs and bench are not. You could go a bigger table for sure , you need a buffet and IMO that light fixture in no way works it is too heavy looking, is hung too high and IMO you could do a lot better . If you like the look of a mix of very tradirional and modern I would look for a table very similar but bugger and then do ghost chairs with it is great look. Certainly no farmhouse here.This is kind of what I am thinking
