Table length with leaf? (End to end)

table width? (Side to side)

Ceiling height?

Jennifer, your room size suggests a 23" chandelier, but your table is large, so you can go a bit larger. If you do a linear chandelier over a 74" table, you could go half the length or so and really make a statement. let's see what we can find that doesn't bust the budget.

Here's how a 36" linear chandelier would look in your room:

This one is $229.

Grover- could you scale to the table with leaf-- that's her Google pic and I believe OP posted they want to keep leaf in. space looks much better scale with leaf imo.

And here's a 35" chandelier:

Imhofan, I thought the leaf was in. Oops. In that case I made the chandeliers too small. Let me start over.

OK, 35" and 36" chandeliers with leaf in table:

That is SO AMAZING how you guys did that. Table is 74 by 44 (with leaf in) https://www.roomstogo.com/product/Dining-Room-Sets/Cindy-Crawford-Home-Ocean-Grove-White-5-Pc-Dining-Room-w-WhiteChairs/4810631P/

I love the "open cage" rectangular light look. So at minimum 36" wide. @Flomangan, that wall on the left is parallel with the window wall..so 3 walls and no fourth wall but table faces foyer. (small foyer). This is the FIRST thing you see when you walk in the door.

Jennifer--- are you sure the table isn't 84" w/the leaf??? Measure to be sure as that it what link description states... Grover needs to know for right chandelier visual!!

Since you're on a budget, I would prioritize. Bigger chandelier first, then curtains. If you keep the piano, I'd switch the chairs and the bench. That will then make the piano available to actually play.

You could finish the room with a plant and some art.

Can you order 4 more chairs to match your dining set? I wouldn't keep them all at the table at once but I would put one on either side of a buffet and get slipcovers for two to use as host and hostess chairs. Your dining room is not fussy, so I would keep the slipcovers more casual-something like this.

A buffet/server like this is simple and in keeping with the modern farmhouse look you're working on.

OMG 84!!! I was typing too fast UGH

OK, that makes the 35" chandelier look more like this:

I am still thinking that the table would be better turned especially since there are 3 walls and this is view when you enter the room. Of course, the piano has to go. I just seems more inviting than the table across the space. I would try it at least to see how it looks from entry. If you keep the leaf in, then you might consider chairs on the sides only. I just think it would look better. You might even like the piano on the side wall as well? Just giving options.

Flo-- her table is actually 44" (not 38). It may work on paper, but as far as lines of sight, I personally wouldn't want to see all the table and chair legs. Much prefer the back of chair vs open end of table w/32 chair legs :).

Agree Imhofan unless a window seat was created along that side wall with table not centered..than a small serving accent chest off to left side of back wall..with Board and baton as the back wall focal pointe....otherwise side of table with chair backs is best centered..maybe a very slender open bottom long console...if Table is 44” wide a 30” chandelier would be just fine..

Honestly only 1’ difference on wall length will not really be noticeable.

I love the mock up with the piece of art that had a person in the boat w a dog....is that something I can find somewhere? How big would it need to be to pack a punch?

This is super cute black and white...alot of bang for your buck...50x38 if you like dog art thought I would share...I don’t know where Groveraxle found that art?

Flo you are amazing and so helpful....

Can’t live without my furniture sliders!

Just found this...gorgeous!

Jennifer, the art is here:

Make your art 2/3 - 3/4 the width of whatever--piano or sideboard--is under it.

Just checking in..how is your room coming along?

Piano is sold and we got chairs but I am still in a design funk. When I get to a laptop I can send an updated picture. I just feel so much pressure with this room because ts the mainroom

Stay cool. Remember, room wasn't built in a day. Post an updated photo and we'll have more suggestions. We always have more suggestions.

Jennifer, I agree w/Flo on the scale w/now 8 of same chairs. Frankly, your husband is wrong w/his insistence on all the same and hope he isn't a design teacher :) lol. I see you have tags on chairs, if returnable I would return now and use the bench you first had until you find other.

I think the arched mirror in your FR might have nice impact in either entry over white chest, or perhaps in DR.

As FYI: Round tables work great in rooms that are basically square.
