Whether your home features a small, cozy dining room, or grand living area with plenty of space for entertaining, making the most of your area is essential to a successful upgrade. You can enhance your dining space with just a few simple design tweaks. It doesn’t matter if the room is only big enough for a small table and two chairs, or you have seating for eight, there are simple decorating tips you can try to take your room from basic to oh-my. Consider the following tasteful dining room decorating tips for an upgraded space your friends will fawn over.

Artwork is a lovely way to add a sense of style to your dining room space. Whether you opt for a large piece of art, or a series of smaller pieces grouped together, be sure to place your artwork where it is clearly visible to those in your dining room. Match art frames to your table or chairs for an added touch of class and flavor.

Decorative hutches are another excellent way to upgrade your dining room. Casual pieces look great in a smaller dining space, while larger hutches create a focal point in an oversized dining room.  Try a rustic hutch for a farmhouse look. Or choose a piece with plenty of display space and you can show off your dinner or glassware collection to friends and family.

Don't overlook your seating choices when decorating your dining room. Upgraded chairs are a lovely way to add a dash of style to your space. Opt for a funky style in eye-catching red  or something more classic in a rich, dark leather. From wooden chairs with tall, elegant backs, to bench styles for cozy seating, today's options are varied and stylish.

Lighting is another fabulous way to update the look of your dining room. Add a high bay led lights to the centre of your room and sconces alongside your dining room windows. Opting for dimmer switches lets you adjust the brightness of your lighting. This is perfect for after-dinner drinks or relaxing after a sumptuous meal.

One often-overlooked dining room decorating option is floor coverings. Whether you have hardwood flooring, or wall-to-wall carpeting, you can add a decorative rug to your dining room. Choosing the right size is essential; you want plenty of space for chairs to slide without overpowering your room. An experienced dining room specialist can offer you insights on the right size carpet for your room. You'll want to make sure that chairs can move freely and that the cushioning on the bottom of your carpet won't discolor your existing flooring. Be sure to inquire about carpet cleaning recommendations too.

Finding stylish ways to upgrade your dining room is easy if you think of your room in terms of layering. Each component you add to your room creates another layer of style and builds upon your vision. Once multiple components are in place, your dining room offers a warm and inviting feel to all who enter. If you’re pondering a dining room makeover,  consider all of these decorating tips to ensure you end up with the perfect upgrade.
