Dining room advice
Comments (0)I need some advice on how to decorate my dining room, colours that I can you. My tv room and dining room are not far apart, see my tv room colours on picture below. I already bought a table and a sever for my dining room and saw some antique chairs that I will need to restore and cover( I also need advice on what colour of fabric I should use). One more thing, what can I use to make my tv room vavavoom?...See MoreDining room advice
Comments (2)Hi. I think you need some colour in the tv room. Try adding some coloured cushions, everything is neutral so any colour will go. I would probably also add black patterned or trimmed cushions with whatever colour(if your table is black as it's hard to work out all the colours in the pics!). I don't think the room is quite big enough for a separate chair arrangement so I would make them part of the sofa arrangement so turn them so they're directly opposite the sofa and maybe lose the table and use elsewhere. I'd also pull the sofa in from the patio door a little. accessorise the coffee table, either 3 or 5 bits, of differing heights. Something in silver or chrome would add some light, maybe a contemporary ornament on top of a book or something or a metallic lacquer tray and then maybe something in a colour to match the cushions or just flowers each week. Re dining room, I'd carry through one of the neutral colours from the tv room for the walls maybe do a feature wall picking up the same colour as the cushion or something that coordinates. A patterned fabric for the chairs would add interest and suit the style. Then lamps/urns/vases for the server with a bowl or something in the middle. Also try mirrors in both rooms to increase the light....See MoreHow to finish my living room Mediterranean summer vibe decor?
Comments (10)Thanks everyone for your comments and suggestions this is really inspiring! I've been looking into shutters but would like something softer around the window too, maybe voiles or something. I love all the attached pictures, where can I buy it all? I also really wanted to add something bold with the Greek key pattern but I haven't found anything I like yet. I love Greek and Roman styles, gods and gladiators and holidays in Europe have been my inspiration for the wall I wanted to bring it all to my living room in rainy England to cheer my up on those dull days! Any ideas how I can add the greek key pattern? I don't have any more pictures with me but the room flows through to a dining area/extended seating area at the end with patio doors on to the garden. Its an extension so we have an arch between the rooms with ceramic up lights under the arch. This end of the room is still white. I would gratefully receive ideas for this end of the room too....See Morehow can I get light into my dining room?
Comments (19)Hi Helen, Any Windows or French doors you can add are a definite yes for me! Also check out this article.
