Choosing A Dining Table For Your New Home
TABLE OF CONTENTS
The dining room is the perfect place for you and your family to enjoy meals together, but there are so many different types of tables available. You can opt for a traditional style or an industrial modern look. If you’re looking for something that can be used in a variety of settings, then consider one that has some type of storage space.
A Solid Wood Dining Table
My experience has taught me that the quality of a piece of furniture will last a lifetime if it is built well and properly cared for.
I am not saying that you should save up your money for a $5,000 gorgeous looking soild wood dining table, but I do think that you should invest in a quality table with a good design and finish to it.
It’s not only a great investment, but it will serve you through the bumps and knocks of a busy family life and become your heirloom years later.
Size Matters: 😂 Consider The Size Of Your Dining Room
This is the amount of space you should have at the edge of your table if you want to easily move around your painting area without getting cramped. If you don’t have enough room for chairs to pull out, you will have to squeeze between walls, which can be a challenge.
Look At The Shape Of Your Dining Room
I find it helpful to be able to visualize a room before I start designing it. When I first begin a project, I have a general idea of how I want the space to look. Once I have an idea of what I want, I then have to figure out how to achieve it.
It’s important to have enough space around your dining table to allow for a comfortable flow around the room and for people to move about.
Consider Your Dining Table
A square dining table is a great choice for a smaller gathering of two or three. It’s also a good choice for a larger event if you need extra space. If you’re looking for something more formal, a round table is a lovely option. Round dining tables are also a great choice for a small gathering of two or three.
What Are Your Sitting Habits
In the past, diners would sit at a table with their backs against the wall. But that’s no longer the norm. Nowadays, people prefer to have the option to stretch their legs out while sitting.
Allow a decent amount of room width per person for the best service and comfort. If you like to stretch your legs out when sitting, you surely need a table that has an open leg structure.
How Many People Normally Sitting
Choosing the right size of table for the size of your family. The norm is for 4 people. However if your plans are for a bigger family consider getting a bigger dining table from the start. Choose a dining table that can be opened up to allow for more guests. That way you can always close it down to save space when not required.
