Textures in the Dining Room

July 25, 2012/in slider, Tips /by decorativetouch

In my opinion, the dining room is an ideal place to show off some style and personality. After all, your family and closet friends will be making memories in this room, and they are sure to think on these great meals and holidays for years to come that took place in your dining room. That’s why in this blog I want to encourage you to go beyond the normal and surpass the traditional in order to embrace the textured dining room. Think of mixing and matching patterns, color and types of furniture. Voluminous curtains, flamboyant lights or eye-catching patterns would all be great fits to the dining room to give us lots of fun texture. As always, I don’t just say it. I show it. Check out these dining rooms full of va-va-va-voom for the uspcale room. Leave a comment below and let me know what you think. And if you feel it’s time to redesign your dining room — traditional or modern decor — give me a call. I’m happy to help you and your family create a room the encourages lasting memories. 913-888-1388
