Need help decorating dining room wall
Comments (12)Those curly tree things need to be fronting a door on either side, or on either side of the windows. Placing them so far apart in opposing corners of the room dilutes their impact, makes them look out of place. I'd also take one of the jars of balls off the table and have just one in the center with two smaller candleholders on each side. I love the look of lamps on a buffet, but I never turn mine on so eventually moved them out to make space for stuff I do use. I love that vase with the white flowers. Goes well with the art, but the rest of the stuff kinda distracts, IMHO. In my house, the additional item on the buffet would probably be a wine rack....See MoreNeed help with decorating dining room with unique tile floor
Comments (13)I highly recommend you clean the floors FIRST and then decide the wall colour. I have a sneaking suspicion that you will have a VERY different colour once it has been cleaned. Once they have been cleaned, I recommend you LIVE with the colour for a few weeks to get used to it. At that point, you can pick a wall colour. And remember the cleaned tile will throw a LOT of WARM colour into the space and onto the walls. The 'warm' white may turn a VERY strong colour with all that warm orange being thrown onto the walls from the floors. You will notice many inspiration photos have CRISP white on the walls....See Moreneed help decorating dining room
Comments (13)The first thing that came to mind for me was the light fixture. Do an online search for "modern pendants" and you will find something more MCM for the look you are after. Another great thing that is very mid century is to look for a brutalist sculpture for that darker accent wall. MCM hardware is often antique brass, so let that be your metal finish guide when looking for a sculpture. Or, you could find a couple of very large black and white framed prints for that wall. Then maybe go for color on the drapery--or a large colorful print--that would add a lot of spice and interest to the room....See MoreNeeding help decorating dining room table
