The dining room is the sort of runt of the litter when it comes to a place to socialise in the home. You either eat in the kitchen at a table, in the living room, or you all go off in seperate directions to enjoy your meals. The dining room is often left for special occasions. Today we’re here to stop that. If you all sit around the dining room table, it creates a much better atmosphere and allows everyone to talk about their day. Plus, the perfect dining room truly does exist today. Here’s how you can create that nice family, sociable room that all of you can enjoy.
Furniture
There are some lovely pieces of dining room furniture if you know where to look. What you get is all down to the theme you’re going to go for, and yes, you do need to have a theme when it comes to your dining room. One we’re loving at the minute is the Hygge look that can be followed all the way throughout the home. This follows the principle that the simple things are better, and in the dining room they definitely are. The last thing you need is to have the room clogged up by unnecessary furniture. If you look at websites such as danetti.com, you’ll see some lovely oak furniture that will be perfect for the dining room. It is simple, it looks clean, and it follows the hygge sense of style. Something unique that you might like to try is having a dining bench rather than chairs. It’s a different take to dining in style. If that isn’t for you, then there are some great dining chairs that will sit perfectly around the table. Finally, if you’d like to, you could also have a little cabinet in the room to fill out the space a bit more, and to hold things like placemats and cutlinary that can be specially used for the dining room
Decor
There are many different decor styles you can for with the dining room, it is all down to personal preference and what you’d like to see. Personally, we think plain and simple is good, especially if you’re going to be following that hygge look. White walls, with maybe one feature wall of some patterned wallpaper will look fine. As long as you’re not over complicating it with too many patterns we guarantee you’ll love the look of the room.
Renovation
We’ve got a little renovation idea for you that you might like. Creating an open plan kitchen and dining room is just amazing for space, that modern feel, and giving you a more friendly inviting dining room. All that usually needs to be done is a bit of remodelling of the kitchen, and the wall to the dining room knocking through. We understand this isn’t for everyone, but it’s a nice idea if you want to add a modern spin to the dining room.
So there we go, now we believe we have shown you that the perfect dining room does exist, you just have to make it your own!
