new house- dining room

Our dining room is right when you walk into the new house. I want it to be a really fun and bold room!

We'll have a tall chair rail  (like photo below) and then the top part will be wallpaper. I'm really excited about this room because I finally get to hang my grandmother's chandelier. She and my grandfather brought it back from Italy and had it in their house, then my parent's house. Now I finally have a room with tall enough ceilings for it! It is hand blown Murano glass and I wish I had a picture handy of it. That is the only definite thing we have for the room! Our current dining room table is Ikea and we plan to replace it. We also have one that was my parents, but it would need some work down to make it work for us. I love the chairs we have, so we may keep those and just recover the seats. I'm hiring a decorator to help me with our living room, kitchen eating space and dining room. So we'll wait to see what she has to say!

Here are some photos of dining rooms that I love!

I love the wallpaper and bold colors in this dining room.

I love the chairs and clean look of this one, but I know I want more color.

I love this table & chair set and the rug.

I love this wallpaper- blue is one of my favorite colors.

I think this will be a fun room to just let the designer run with! I'm not feeling super picky or drawn one certain way. I just want to be sure I have a big enough table to host plenty of friends and family for dinner parties, holidays, game nights, etc.
