What else do you have going on in this room, as far as draperies, any art work, a carpet, chair cushions, your furniture? Also, what style do you like; country, traditional, contemporary? Also, if you care to, you can post over on the "Discussions" side and get more input. (You can post pictures there as well when you are asking for help, in fact, you will probably get more responses!)

Im really looking for guidelines- if there are any. IE should I look at a specific 'shape' of chair to compliment a 'barrel/oval shape table', (squared, rounded, etc), is a pop of color 'smart' ? chairs are so $$, what's the thinking on upholstery - leather, velvet craze, other material. if table is glass/metal is the 'convention' to stick with metallic legs, or does it matter ? for context: the style of the room/house is what I would call contemporary/modern - but defl'y not minimalist. The floors are 'wood look' tile - black with 'grayish' veins, the walls are dark grey, trim white. I just ordered table - italian, matte black glass top a 'golden' metal cage pedestal. any / all tips to get started on the hunt / help me narrow down appreciated.

Hello, In addition to hand-building copper lanterns, Bevolo also has iron chandeliers and vintage fixtures. We offer a complementary design serviceand can scale out the proper size fixtures for your rooms, based on your ceiling heights/table dimensions. From your picture I think our Spanish Stables No.006 chandelier would look great over the table. Another option that would work well is the Square Hanging Light. Also, we have a pendant option that is very similar to what you have pictured for your peninsula, called the Barber Shop pendant. When mounting over a table we typically recommend the bottom of the fixture be at 3'-4' above the table. Let us know if we can help you. Happy decorating! -Kiley @ Bevolo

I am going to paint the walls in both rooms Wind’s Breath colour. You’re correct, I bought the painting and rugs at Homesense to match, thinking they were more contemporary. I am an amateur trying to learn. This is why I appreciate everyone’s suggestions so much! I tried to find slip covers for my sofa and loveseat but failed. They were all stretchy spandex-polyester and looked cheap. Any suggestions on where I can buy slipcovers that look like upholstered furniture in Canada? I was originally looking for off-white slip covers, although I wonder if this will look washed out with Wind’s Breath colour on the walls. Any suggestions on coffee tables?
