Dining room- more transitional, less traditional??
Comments (73)I like moody colors for dining rooms too, but I think this one can have that on the walls and go with the lighter chandelier ( I am faviring the capiz and you have said several times you love it). The capiz is not clear like crystal and you only need to do crystal once or twice a year -- and some folks say they do quick cleanings of those with a blast of compressed air (in a can, sold with office/computer supplies). I replaces a brass and porcelain chandelier that I thought needed rewiring (discovered some loose fittings when we went to take it down -- opps!) with a crystal chandelier. I get lab fur everywhere on the floors, but have never noticed a single hair at light fixture level -- even on the crystal. I think as long as the dog doesn't dance onthe table, you will be fine. If you love something, come back to it a couple of times adn it is still singing your song, I think that is the one you should go with. That's how it works for me. Have you done a mock up -- paste the photo of the chandeliers into the photo of your dining room. I had to do that with my kitchen island fixture so DH could "see" it, and there is a help me pick a chandelier thread going now -- I think it really helps sometimes....See MoreCan’t decide!

Comments (11)I'm always team rug. A good rug will always enhance a space. eSale rugs recently added great rug viewer. Upload your picture with a few clicks and you can try many different rugs in your room. If you do find one you like online, order the smallest size available if possible. Then you can check the color and texture in your house without worrying about wrapping a huge rug and dragging it to the post office. esalerugs.com...See MoreDo I need to put same rug in dining room and living room
Comments (8)If it was my room, I would look for a larger rectangular rug to use in the seating area, and leave the floor under the dining table bare. It's easier to clean and would put more focus on your living space. I'd also paint the walls a warm white, a muted light green, or a light beige. The gray doesn't work well with your floors, wood furniture, chairs, or blinds. Your furnishings would look great with warm white walls and a rug that incorporates the coral color you have in some of your accents....See MorePlease help me choose rug sizes for Dining Room/Living Room space
Comments (29)Sorry, not sure why the picture didn't post. Here it is again. RL, I like the round pendant and the pleated one in your first set of suggestions. Is that a Nelson bubble pendant? Also, I should have given a few dimensional details. The table is 36" wide at the ends, 40" wide in the center. Ceiling height is 92"....See Morepearlsandjeans
