Inspiration For Dining Room Season

I like to call this time of the year; just after the end of summer, "dining room season".

Historically, this is when we get the most calls for dining rooms that need to be pulled together before the holiday.

If your dining room isn't entertaining-ready, now is the time to call for your in-home consultation.

You can book one below at a reduced rate for a very limited time.

If you plan to go the DIY route, here are 3 quick tips for pulling it together in record time.

1. Comfortable Seating

Entertaining family and friends - especially the ones you have not seen for a while, means that you want all the time in the world to get caught up during and after dinner. Comfortable dining chairs are a must for an evening of great conversation. I like to use chairs that are also good as lounge chairs in a living room.

In this dining room, we used the Rider Dining Chairs. We get this question a lot on Instagram - "are the chairs comfortable?". I think it is due to their smaller frame. Yes, they are very comfortable.

2. A Sideboard

A sideboard provides another surface other than the table itself, for laying out all the delicious food. This makes entertaining a lot easier where you don't have to run from the kitchen to the dining room all the time.

3. Good Lighting

Good lighting is essential in every room. In a dining room it helps to have a couple of sources - lamps, chandelier and recessed lights on dimmers. Lighting is one of the elements that will encourage your guests to stay a bit longer even past the meal because tehy help to set a great mood.

Richmond TX Dining Room

Traditional dining room in Katy TX. Most of the furniture was already owned by client - rug, table and chairs. We took our cue from the existing pieces to create a new traditional space. Perfect for entertaining.
