10 Home Interior Decorating Ideas To Dress Up A Small
Dining Table

Haven't excluded your dining table from your interior decorating thoughts have you? Good, because it is just as important as any other piece of furniture in your home.

If you have a small dining table that could use a little pizzazz, try these interior decorating ideas:

  1. Change The Chairs- If your dining chairs lack character, consider replacing them with something more distinctive or add a slipcover with an interesting pattern.

  2. Add candles/candleholders- A candelabra would make a bold statement. If you decide to use two candleholders, make sure they match the weight of the table.

  3. Add A Tablecloth- Tablecloths come in all kinds of patterns. Find a pattern that matches your decorating style.

  4. Try Some Funky Place Settings- I've seen lots of great ideas...placemats that are faux leather, bamboo, and more. Just look at my table below.

  5. Display Flowers In A Vase Or Decorative Container- Place you favorite flowers in a distinctive vase or find an arrangement of silk flowers.



  6. Change Or Refinish The Table Base- If your dining table has a glass top, change or repaint the base to something more interesting. You'd be surprised at the type of things that would make a great base. There are also spray paints that will provide the look of antique, stone, hammered metal and other finishes.

  7. Try A Table With A Glass Top- If your dining area is small, a glass top will open up the room.

  8. Display A Bowl Of Decorative Balls- The balls provide a three dimensional pattern and texture to complement your decor.

  9. Display A Basket Of Fresh Fruit- A basket of fresh fruit or vegetables would add natural color and charm to your dining space.

  10. Keep Clutter Away- Nothing more to add.

One of my favorite sites, Novica, has handmade bowls, baskets, placemats, and other home decor from all over the world. Many are primitive and artistic and would work perfectly with any interior decorating styles.

If you're in the market for a dining table, you should first visit Furniture Find. They offer thousands of brand name furniture at discounted prices. Also, you'll find lots of online images that give great decorating ideas.

A major benefit of Furniture Find is that they carry many more items than any brick and mortar shop. And through their free Personal Shopper service they will search high and low for any item that you can't find on their web site.

So even if you spot something you like at your local furniture store, put Furniture Find to work to see if the price can be beaten. You have nothing to lose!
