Your Ultimate Guide to Dining Room Furniture Shopping
Dining rooms are the place to convene with friends and family; creating memories around the table over meals so delicious you’ll never forget. At Canales Furniture, we’re here to help you choose the perfect dining tables, chairs, and sets to create a space you’ll love for years to come.
Before you shop, consider these key points:
-
Assess Your Space: Measure your dining area carefully to ensure there's enough room for chairs and movements; aim for 36in. of clearance. For large rectangular rooms, rectangular tables work best. While for square room or smaller space, round or square tables are the perfect fit.
-
Define Your Style: Are you into modern, traditional, rustic, or eclectic? Your home furniture should reflect your aesthetic, and knowing your style helps narrow down choices.
-
Determine Your Budget: Always set your budget before you start shopping to help you find the pieces that give you the quality you want at the price you can afford. (Extra Tip: Canales Furniture has a wide selection that fits all your budgeting needs!)
Choosing Your Dining Table:
The centerpiece of your dining room, deciding on your dining table will set the tone for the entire space and influence its functionality.
-
Shape: Rectangular for large gatherings, round for intimate meals, square for smaller groups, and oval for soft edges with good seating. The shape you choose should complement your room's layout and how you plan to use the space most often.
-
Size: Consider how many people you typically host (4-seater, 6-seater, etc.). For instance, extendable tables are perfect for flexibility.
-
Material: Wood is classic and durable, glass is modern and airy, metal is sleek, and stone adds luxury are budget-friendly. Each material offers a distinct aesthetic and level of maintenance, impacting the overall feel and practicality of your dining area.
