When was the last time you used your dining room<\/a>? If it\u2019s not getting a whole lot of use it may be because it\u2019s lost some of its luster and beauty. I think many people furnish their dining rooms<\/a> and never update them! Many of us bought dining room \u201csuites\u201d that cost us a ton and we think it would be almost heresy to change them up! And now they may be looking a little tired. \u00a0You don\u2019t have to live in a dining room<\/a> that has seen better days! It\u2019s not hard to find your new style in a dining room<\/a>. It\u2019s all about being creative and letting go and editing and being very careful about what we add. Today let\u2019s talk about creating your perfect dining room.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/h2>\n

A GREAT TABLE THAT FITS THE ROOM<\/h2>\n

Even more important than finding a style of table<\/a> you love is finding a dining room table<\/a> that fits your dining room<\/a>. Your dining room<\/a>, no matter the size, should have room for those eating in it to move around. \u00a0The beauty of tables these days is they come in so many sizes and shapes. Earlier this year I got a new dining room table<\/a> made out of concrete.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

COMFORTABLE CHAIRS<\/h2>\n

I know that comfortable chairs<\/a> sound like a no-brainer. But it\u2019s not always that easy to find the \u201cjust right\u201d chair! Of course, chairs must feel good to sit in but they need to be the right height for your table too.<\/p>\n

The average height of a dining room table<\/a> is about 30 inches and a chair<\/a> should be about 18 inches from floor to seat. This allows enough lap and leg room for most people.<\/p>\n

The idea of mixing and matching chairs<\/a> is now very trendy. An assortment of great chairs<\/a> looks so chic and fun in a dining room. For example, having different colors or even different styles on the king and queen sides of the table will make your room look fancy.<\/p>\n

Some people like to have benches on one side of their dining table<\/a>, but the issue with having a bench is that, if you are having a long dinner it’s not a very comfortable choice and your guests will get tired soon because there is nowhere for them to lean.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/h2>\n

A Console<\/h2>\n

Does your dining room have space to put a Console<\/a>, hutch, desk, sofa table, or some horizontal surface? Having a console<\/a> that has storage and a great surface that holds a lamp and a few other decorations is a great choice to make your dining room more luxurious. You can put appetizers or drinks or extra serving dishes or desserts on the buffet. Easy and so accessible! It\u2019s also nice to make this a self-serve area for family and guests.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/h2>\n

OVERHEAD LIGHTING<\/h2>\n

You should have some sort of lighting<\/a> above your table. Preferably a pendant or drop type of lighting<\/a>. If you have 8-foot ceilings a light should hang 30-34 inches from the ceiling. Add 3 inches for every foot higher your ceilings are. Family and guests need to see what they are eating and need to see each other.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/h2>\n

OTHER DECOR AND EMBELLISHMENTS<\/h2>\n

Think about a centerpiece for your table<\/a>. And candles, dishes, curtains, lamps, \u00a0a bar cart, extra seating, and all the little touches that make your dining room<\/a> an expression of who you are! No crowding or too many little items. We think one of the biggest mistakes we make as home decorators is adding too much to a room! Keep surfaces decorated but clean-looking!<\/p>\n

Always start with the basics\u2026 a great table<\/a>, comfy chairs<\/a>, a rug, and overhead lighting<\/a>. Then add what fits into your dining room<\/a>.<\/p>\n

You can have a perfect dining room<\/a> that is just YOUR style! Head into your dining room and give it a look with a very discerning eye! What simple changes can you make that will start the process of CREATING YOUR PERFECT DINING ROOM<\/a>?<\/p>\n
