Getting the most out of your dining room decor

If you entertain frequently in your Milwaukee home, or you and your family simply eat a lot of meals at home, your dining room is probably the center of social activity in your house. Given how much time is spent in this space, making sure it is decorated well should be a top priority!

Here are some handy tips if you're not sure how to approach designing the interior of your dining room:

  • Bright color accents: One of the most striking ways that you can decorate your dining room is to stick with mostly neutral, subtle colors, but have one or two elements that are brightly colored. The contrast between these two tones – subtle and striking – creates a beautiful contrast.
  • Hang roman shades with patterns: RealSimple.com recommends hanging roman shades with simple patterns, particularly if you haven't hung a lot of pictures and other decorations on the walls.
  • Make it an appetizing place to eat: There's a reason restaurants often use shades of red and yellow in their logos and designs: We associate these colors with food and eating. If you want your dining room to be a place where food and drink are the focus, adding a red accent wall or using china that incorporates these colors is a fantastic idea.
