Coastal Dining Room Decor

OneTwoThreeFourFiveSixSeven

The kitchen may be the heart of the home but your dining room is the quintessential gathering space for holidays, birthday dinners and other special moments with family and friends. Put the right foot forward for entertaining by optimizing your dining room decor and functionality. Here are seven of our must have items for a coastal dining room.

1. A strong foundation

In most homes, the dining room table is not just used for family dinners. From kids’ craft projects and homework to large holiday gatherings, picking a dining room table that will stand the test of time is essential. Be careful to select a table for your space that is not only high quality, but also made of a durable material. We love this concrete table from Made Goods that is the perfect combination of form + function.

2. Plated Pretty

Colorful tableware is a fabulous way to add a fun touch to your space- especially if your home is primarily neutral. Make a statement at your next dinner party with beautiful coastal hued plates and platters.

3. Sit and stay a while

While we’re on the topic of adding color to your space, seating is another great way to infuse a pop of color to an otherwise bland room. Consider mixing and matching, with two statement chairs on either end and more neutral options for the rest of your seating.

4. It’s lit

If you want to update your home but are’t looking to undertake a full remodel all at once, lighting is a great place to start. Swapping out your dated dining room lighting fixture for a chic chandelier can make a drastic difference in the overall look of the room.

5. Elevated basics

Charcuterie servewear is a must for any entertainer- why not take it up a notch and showcase your personal style? We love the gold and marble finish on this set from Crate & Barrel.

6. Dinner is poured

Get the cocktail party started with elegant glassware fit for any occasion. Make sure to have different sizes on hand!

7. At arm’s reach

The key to minimizing stress when entertaining is to have everything you need in one place. Store glassware, placemats and other dinner party essentials in a credenza or sideboard.
