Yet another dining furniture season is here as customers
like you anticipate Thanksgiving and the December holidays. You need not dread
this but rather enjoy it thanks to Roses Flooring & Furniture’s phenomenal
selections in this category. These include dining sets great and small.
Remember: you don’t have to get your new dining table and chairs from the same
set. Mix things up a bit for visual interest and for your comfort, and just to
show off an endearing quirkiness through your décor as you serve another course
of hospitality. Whether you’ve decided to get your dining table and chairs
separately, or you want to keep the table you’ve got and upgrade the dining
room seating, our Southeastern U.S. furniture stores have the styles and
bargains you seek. Either scenario is an opportunity to refresh your decor
affordably. Your dining room is a major stage to show off your hosting. We
empower you to make the most of it! Here are some ideas to consider, based on
professional interior design principles.
The Fun of Dining
Room Benches
Roses’ assortment
of dining room benches are a perennial favorite among families with young
children that really use their dining furniture daily. They’re rugged and easy
for restless youngsters to get on and off without disturbing anything or
anyone. So consider getting one or two alongside traditional chairs.
Some Side Chair Advice
The dominant design principle for dining side chairs is that
simpler patterns are more attractive in multiples. Go for materials that look
solid and steer clear from bolder patterns. Will your dining furniture be doing
double duty for porch or deck parties? Consider a side chair design that’s
easily stackable. Is your dining room small? In that case, designers recommend side
chairs with a “light” look such as an open back, extending your room’s
sightlines for an optical illusion of more depth.
Slightly More Posh
End Chairs for a Touch of Class
A time-honored way to arrange your dining room is to have a rectangular
table with the places of honor at either end, distinguished by captain’s chairs
with arms. This adds visual interest as well. Another reason for this
preference is you can maximize your seating around the whole table. If you do
go upscale with your end chairs, just be sure to measure carefully so you know
they can slide into your table. One thing to watch for when doing this: tabletops
are often thicker than you think. Another suggestion for stunning dining room
end chairs is to make sure they complement your living room furniture because
you might want to pull them into that room after dinner.
Cool, Different Dining Furniture: Avoid Matchy-Matchy
Choosing your dining room chairs apart from the table affords
you an interior design opportunity the pros love: having dining room furniture
that complements each other but doesn’t match exactly, considered a mark of
elegance. This is also why contrasting end and side chairs are a favorite
dining room choice. Another example of dining room furniture complementarity is
to have all chairs and the table be of the same material, say, wood, but with
chair legs differing from the table’s. Alternatively, you can contrast a
traditional wooden table with some metal or clear plastic in your chairs.

beyond, including fun bar stools, enjoy the Roses difference in high quality and
down-to-earth prices!
