Many people tend to think that the dining rooms are the most difficult room to decorate unless they have a big budget. The truth is there are many innovative and budget-friendly methods to renew your dining space to make it a more inviting and appealing place to enjoy your food.
The thought of renovating your dining room may be baffling, but when you follow these simple, inexpensive ideas, your dining room is sure to attain a splendid makeover. Those little changes can give a personality and make your otherwise boring dining area to a marvelous room you would love to dine in. These tips can revive your dining area irrespective of its size and style.
Add a dash of color
Go for a stylish tablecloth that suits your taste. Remember your room should have a makeover that is pleasing to you as well. So, go for bright colored tablecloth if you want to have a vibrant look and go for neutral shades if you are after a formal look. Just changing the cushion covers to a brightly colored one is sure to add a highlight to the room. Placemats and napkins in your table will make your dining table look more elegant. Pay attention to your window blinds too. A change in the window blind could give the touch of magic that your dining space has been lacking.
Light your dining area.
The light fitting must compliment your table size. It will be odd if the chandelier outsizes the table or if it is too small for a grand spacious dining table. You can either opt for chandeliers or lanterns, depending on the style and mood of your dining space. Boosting the lighting effect in your dining area has the power to transform the look and feel of your dining space. If you have a tiny dining area, a mirror could make it look more spacious by reflecting the light.
The large-scale art piece will do the trick
If you don’t entertain the idea of having a gallery wall of many photographs, try placing single, but a stunning piece of metal wall art or 3d fabric wall art. Any art with 3d effect instantly pops out and adds a personality and charm to the area. Select stupendous wall arts that will represent your style, your passion, and your personality.
Bring in aroma into your dining space.
Love the dinners you have at the restaurant with an aromatic fragrance around you? Bring in that wonderful feel by placing scented candles in your dining room. Make sure that you place the candles with the subtle fragrance else it will be overpowering.
Go for the replicas
Found a designer piece that you would love to buy which seems too costly and doesn’t fit your budget? Why not try getting the replicas at a very cheaper rate. The effect the replica brings to your dining room will be almost the same as that of the original designer piece.
Display a gallery of your Kids’ artwork
Why not get the help of your children in your makeover task? Ask them to give you some nice artwork of theirs. You are sure to bring out their creativity and you will definitely marvel at your little one’s talent. They will feel elated when their artworks are hung in the dining area and proud when the guests congratulate them for their talent.
Revamp your old photographs
Do you have old photographs of your parents or your precious children that are close to your heart but are lying in the basement? Make a collage of your cherished photographs. Frame them with unique, bold frames and hang them in your wall. I bet it will be the showstopper of your dining room. You will definitely not regret hanging them when your guests talk about those good old times.
Try installing bamboo wall panels and they are sure to steal the show in your dining space. Bamboos can also be used as blinds and window covering to give a classic style to the dining area. The added benefit of using the bamboo is that they are highly durable and requires zero maintenance other than occasional dusting.
Ceilings need not be flat and white always
It might seem that decorating the ceiling is not that important. That’s the reason why we don’t care to decorate our ceilings. But remember a splendid ceiling will leave an enduring impression in the minds of your guest. A well-designed decorative ceiling panel, when installed is sure to be the focal point in your dining area. But ensure that your ceiling goes well with the other walls and the style of your room.
Gorgeous Wallpapers
Adding a3d tile wallpaper can bring in a dramatic effect to your dining space. If you are a person close to nature, then you can go in for green leafy wallpapers. These stylish wallpapers are sure to make a statement in your dining space. These wallpapers are pocket-friendly, but will lend you a look of grand and lavish dining space.
Indoor Plants
Why not make your dining space more special by housing a few indoor plants? If your dining space receives plenty of sunlight succulent plants could thrive well. There are plants that would suit any kind of dining space, be it the compact or the grand spacious dining area. If you feel that it will be tedious to maintain the natural ones, the artificial silk plants would do the job for you. These artificial plants available in the market are so natural that it would be difficult to differentiate them from the natural ones. Keep some flowers in an artistically designed vase and place it on your dining table. Your dining table will be a testimony to the wonders that a bold floral centerpiece can do.
A dining room makeover need not be a reflection of some designer’s idea. Bring out the creativity in you and renovate your dining area into a space that says who you are and what you like. Plan the makeover smartly and give that luxurious look to your dining area without poking a hole in your pocket.

I love the idea of a large-scale piece of art. It can really be beautiful.
I do not have a dinning room but I love to look and read about how to decorate them. I really like the ideal of a big piece of art
I definitely wish we had better lighting in our dining room. Whoever designed the house apparently thought no one needed overhead lighting in any room, lol.
Lighting really can make a big difference. I like an uplight or downlight on a nice piece of art – very dramatic!
I love that table.
I would love to do some much needed redecorating as soon as the weather warms up.
Great ideas. My dining room could use a little help. I’m going to try a couple of these.
