For most of us, the dining room is the least used space in our house. We tend to reserve the dining room for family, friends, and special occasions. However, this doesn’t mean we should neglect that space. This area has a crystal clear purpose, and decorating it is a lot of fun! If your dining room needs a little TLC and you want to impress your guests, here are four creative ways to improve your dining room.
Have Fun with Furniture
We have various options to have fun with your dining room furniture. For a minimalistic look, choose elegant yet straightforward pieces; a sophisticated hardwood table with matching chairs should do the trick. For a whimsical, eye-catching look, purposely mismatch your furniture! Try different colored chairs with different styles; this is your chance to let your imagination take over! Try trends, such as ghost chairs (sleek, futuristic, clear plastic chairs) and substituting chairs for benches. For a dining room with huge, central windows, try utilizing a banquette with colorful throw pillows.
Add Artwork
We recommend tying the room together with some artwork for a more open dining room space! Adding an oversized piece brings a focal point to the area and enhances the overall look. If you’re looking to dramatize your dining room, try adding mirrors of different shapes and sizes to your wall! The mirrors will add a sense of drama to the room, and it’s a playful yet tasteful way of improving your space’s charm. If artwork and mirrors aren’t your thing, adding family photos as a gallery wall in white frames is a classic way of adding pizzazz to your dining room.
Table Decoration
Who says eccentric centerpieces should be reserved for special events? Flowers, vases, tablecloths, runners, there are many possible options to spice up your dining room table. Decorate by theme, by holiday, by season, or opt for a year-round centerpiece! Floral arrangements are a great way of changing up your table decoration as you can cycle through many different flowers. If flowers aren’t your cup of tea, we suggest having fun with other objects for centerpieces such as shells, crystals, miniature statues, unusual trays, and charming knickknacks. For a simple change, try bold or patterned tablecloths or runners. Table décor is the easiest way to change up your dining room, so feel free to test things out until you find what works best for you and your space!
Touch of Color
For a dramatic statement, an accent wall is a fantastic choice. You can paint it a bold color or, better yet, use exciting wallpaper! Mesmerizing wallpaper patterns are a sure way to wow your guests! If you want to take it up a notch, try upholstering your chairs to match your wallpaper pattern. Another exciting way to spice up your dining room is by painting your floors with bold colors or geometric patterns! Try vibrant curtains if you’re not up for wallpaper or painted floors. Vibrant curtains can bring your space to life and make for a memorable visit for your guests.
