Comments (5)Hi Eilidhmca, Congratulations on your new home! Trying to choose colours when you have a period property as well as limited natural light, can be quite a challenge. For an elegant and timeless shade, use Dulux Steel Symphony 4 from our colour mixing range. This calming muted blue tone works beautifully on the walls and echoes the Scandinavian style, which will work perfectly with your classic blue Aga. To ensure that your scheme will look great for longer, use our Endurance+ finish paint. Specially formulated with Diamond Technology, it is 20x tougher than our conventional matt paint. As for your chosen dining table, it will work effortlessly within your dining room. For a complete Rustic-Scandi inspired dining area, use a mix of bench and dining chair seating. We love how these different chair styles in white and statement lighting create a fabulous characteristic dining table layout.

Comments (12)Hi, do you really miss having a comfy place to sit there? If so, have you considered a dining type of bench? Those aren't much deeper than your cabinets. For example: http://www.angelandboho.com/boho-banquettes--chairs-291-c.asp I would not put a sideboard there. But a chair and a little table could work. If you don't really need the extra seating, consider just hanging some interesting artwork. Or something like the mural that craftycountess used....See MoreHELP!! Decor ideas for kitchen/diner
Comments (4)First of all your room is lovely and I'm reluctant to suggest anything, as I love walnut and I love walnut with white. I can see that you would like to get a softer effect however, and I think you can do this with a relatively small amount of effort. First off - do you want to embrace the darkness of the dining area? If you want a clear separation between the two spaces you can achieve this by painting the dining area a different colour, which will have the effect of shortening the long appearance of the room and making the dining area more intimate and cosy. If this is your only eating space, though, you might find a dark colour a little oppressive during the day (personally I'd love it - my living room is dark green!). I wouldn't use a patterned wall paper in this space, as I'm struggling to decide which wall I would use as a feature wall. Papering a side wall might bring pull it in visually and make the space seem longer and narrower. Colour-wise I love indigo and brass/gold with walnut and a dark, blue-based colour will make the room seem intimate and expansive at the same time. Sometimes the wall with an extractor recess above a hob can look nice in a feature colour, but I can't really see yours from your photo. BUT you could pretty much leave the decor intact and bring some colour and texture in with soft furnishings and accessories. I like your blinds, perhaps you can soften them and add a feature at the dining room end by adding floor length curtains? Maybe just fixed for show. You could stand your dining suite on a flat weave rug and add a large mirror to one wall to reflect the light around the room. Curtains and/or rug would allow you to use some pattern. Alternatively swap out your blinds for softer looking fabric roman blinds. Add the odd accessory with warm metals or bright colour. Suggestion above. Hope this helps a bit :)...See Morekitchen decor help
Comments (2)Ooh, please move the toaster before you set fire to the cupboard over it. Putting a toaster under a cabinet is actually dangerous. Constantly heating the cupboard will dry the carcass out until it can actually ignite eventually. To pull the top and bottom cabinets together with the flooring and tiles i'd change all the kitchen equipment and cannisters etc to a bronze colour. Making them all the same theme colourwise will make it look more polished and elegant. As the kitchen area is a little dark, take away everything from the window sill to maximize the light. Don't put up a blind as that will hinder further. I can't quite make out some of your dimensions needed, so this is a rough guess. Maybe something like this could work. You are hindered by the fact that your doors open inwards and I'd highly suggest changing that....See MoreShell Awais

6 years agolast modified: 6 years agoWhat a lovely kitchen ! I think the wall beside the door could take some colourful art. Maybe one piece or two one above the other or perhaps three small works one above the other - same style, same size and same frames . here is a pic of prints of my work in a client's kitchen/living room. Size of each framed work is approx 14 inches square. If you like the style of my work, send me the wall size and we can discuss options. I do originals or giclee prints. Visit my profile where there is a se!ection of semi abstract landscapes, flower paintings and abstracts.
Below is an example of a mini work measuring approx 11 x 9 when framed. Two or three one above the other makes a nice feature.
and here's an example of my flower works size approx 12 x 16 before framing.
