Dining room decor advice-please!
Comments (39)I went back and looked at all your pics again, and this is what I would do. I'd recover the backs of the chairs in an ivory fabric. I would find an area rug with ivory, taupe (like your walls), and that beautiful blue in the peacock. Either find or make a centerpiece with ivories and blues, and add the peacock feathers to supplement the arrangement. A place like Michael's could help with that. Add some silver candlesticks on either side of the centerpiece. Consider changing the mirror to a more modern looking silver-framed mirror. Dark walls add drama....not sure about this because I can't really tell what your wall color is now, but it might be cool to accent the mirror wall with a dark paint, maybe a deeper shade of the peacock blue, a dark gray, or a deeper shade of your current wall color. I would also eliminate the planter on the buffet and use something with a lower profile. This can all be done inexpensively, especially if you recover the chairs yourself. Check places like Hobby Lobby, TJ Maxx Home Goods, and of course Kirkland's!...See MoreDining Room Decor Advice Needed! Stuck with a mostly empty room!
Comments (3)That table is far too large for the room, sorry - I know you just bought it. Your room would lend itself better to a 54" to 60" round table. Suggest you put that table back on Facebook Marketplace and go that direction.

Comments (10)Real solutions. : A longer side board unmatched to the table. A new light for over the table. Perhaps a different rug . The bottom line is the room should relate to the rest of your decor, and we've no idea what that is. We're seeing what you are seeing. A sallow wall color, a dim and sad amount of light......a blank wall. ......a printer and toy storage. Appears you need more storage, Whatever happens above that storage is dependent on it's size......length. It depends the rest, and your budget etc length matters ..................See MoreWall decor for small dining room
Comments (5)I‘d suggest adding a window treatment to create a balanced wall and room and skip anything in between. Just bring home mirrors and test various sizes and configurations. If you don’t mind unsolicitated advice, the blue bench and settee feel awkward/impractical. If interested, provide a picture of entire room and you’ll receive helpful advice....See More
