Let’s talk size:
Dining room tables come in different sizes and the scale of your dining room or dining area will determine how big or small the table and chairs should be. Remember the flow around your table, especially when the chairs are pulled out for seating and eating. Be sure of your measurements before buying.
Let’s talk shape:
Dining room tables also come in different shapes, and this needs to be a consideration before parting with a huge chunk of your decor budget. What shape will look best in your space and what shape do you love - round, square, oval or rectangular? The layout and size of your space will likely determine this, but you also need to consider functional flow around the table as well as other elements in your space and the overall design of your home.
Let’s talk materials:
Dining room furniture is a focal point and the material you choose will make it a statement piece in your home. Do you love the minimalist look of glass or do you prefer the country chic look of painted, distressed wood? What about the traditional look of dark woods such as imbuia or mahogany? Then there is the rustic appeal of lighter raw wood grains such as oak, or you can go bold and eclectic with a brightly painted antique or modern table in yellow, or turquoise.
Let’s talk styles:
At the end of the day, style is going to dictate where you spend your money when it comes to dining room furniture. But this is where the fun starts, especially if you enjoy mixing and matching different styles and eras. Whether you love the pared-back and retro simplicity of mid-century dining room chairs and tables, the French charm of a whitewashed wooden table with pretty upholstered chairs, an antique wooden table with ghost chairs, or a minimalist glass table with industrial metal chairs, your starting place is Bob Shop.
