The kitchen is the heart of the home, but what comes next? How about a good dining room? I absolutely LOVE my formal dining room! It’s the perfect place to host dinner parties with friends and family, plus I absolutely love decorating it! I’ve put together a board of must-have items when it comes to creating the perfect dream dining room!
It won’t come to any surprise to you, that I’ve stuck with a neutral color palette. To me, neutrals are the easiest to work with and change out decor for the Holidays or just because.
slipcovered chairs // dining side chair // dining table // framed prints // antiqued hutch
I love the character the antiqued pieces bring to this room! This is a very simple design to recreate! Now, I’m going to show you what adding a few elements of decor can do to completely turn this space around! As I mentioned the other day, I’m in Fall mode, so I’ll be creating a dining room decorated for Fall!
behr // faux pumpkins // navy curtains // olive wreath // eucalyptus garland // chandelier // vintage ironstone // knit throw // pillows
My suggestion would be to paint the walls Swiss coffee and trim ultra pure white. Opt for a farmhouse-style chandelier. Or, something a little more fancy and add crystals! I love adding navy to this dining room! The long, flowing navy curtains and matching navy throw pillows, tie the space together. Add a chunky knit throw to the one of the head chairs for instant coziness.
Fill your china cabinet/hutch with a beautiful collection of vintage ironstone. Hang an olive leaf or eucalyptus wreath in front of your hutch. Don the table with a similar swag of eucalyptus garland and create a stunning centerpiece by adding some cinderella pumpkins and tiered candles! Fill in any blank spaces with some faux or live stemmed greenery!
Wow! What a difference just adding some simple decor makes! Now, if only I could make this room come to life 😉 Keeping this for future reference! Pin here so you can save it too!
