Comments (3)Dwell ( and others ) do coffee tables that then raise to be dining tables.... team this with a couple of folding chairs that you can hang on hooks when they aren't in use - and you keep the space uncluttered... maybe worth a look ?!...See MoreWhat colour dinning table should I buy?

Comments (9)It's a nice room. It looks as if you have a few inches to move the table towards the door just to create a small gap between the sofa and table? I don't know whether it just needs zoning. I might add another lower shelf and art over the sofa so it connects a bit more. You could have a mirror over the table to make the room feel wider but I might go for a wall light, there are a number of plug in ones around ATM. I'd also add a vase of stems or an ornament on the table...See MoreO M
5 years agoThank you very much ED.
I hadn’t considered painting the table and chairs. They’ve been handed down to us from my partners parents and still in great condition!
I’m not sure which color to paint them. Our living room has a dark wooden coffer, steel/charcoal tv stand (which may not be very visible in my pictures). Should I paint it a dark brown to resemble the wooden coffer?
And no, it’s a new build. Next door to a church.

5 years agoThat little table looks very cottagey attractive as it is and the chairs go well. I can imagine you would like to have something more modern for a new apartment. The colouring below would work well in your room and if the table is not too large (as this one is) it could be pushed against a wall for most of the time. It is difficult to tell what happens in the room.
In the future you might have a larger dining area where you can have a modern table, but that little round table will always find a place; maybe displaying family photographs; a base for a lamp and large bowl of flowers; maybe in a bedroom for displays or having a decorative, or heavy linen to-the-floor tablecloth with jute trim. If you paint it, don't make it brown, as it will look like an apology. You could pluck out the deep red lacquer from your rug, or go with a mid-to-deep French grey-blue.

5 years agoI agree circular. I love your table, it looks solid and sturdy. The chairs are maybe a little too cottagey for your room, so you could leave the table natural or paint it leaving the top as it is, or change everything for something more modern. A few pics below. Painting furniture isn’t difficult but a bit time consuming. Prep is everything - sand all over to key the paint, wash down, then paint two coats of primer followed by two top coats. Buy the best paint you can as it will last longer. In the second pic they have a similar table to yours with more modern chairs. The bottom pic is marble with vintage chairs.
