| DINING ROOM DECORATING IDEAS - WALL DECOR It's all about texture, color and theme when you decorate a room. When decorating your dining room, consider the centuries old European tradition of using artwork and wall tapestry to decorate important rooms in your home. Update your home decor with wall art and wall tapestry from our framed print and large tapestry selection. Add vivid color, soft texture and casual art themes to your dining room decor. THE MAKEOVER The gold dining room, shown in the BEFORE picture, lacks balance and harmony. The dining room wall decor and light fixture appear insignificant. The artwork and fixture are lost in the room due to size, color or texture. Neither the light fixture, nor the wall decor, compliments the dining room architecture. Small changes make big differences. In our first dining room makeover we chose bold and dramatic accessories to bring a designer's touch to this gold dining room. Accessories with bold simplicity, textural contrast and earthy colors enhance the dining room theme. The outdated light fixture is replaced by a scrolled iron pendant light fixture. It compliments the color in the dining room table and the scrolls of iron compliment the arched window and door. Continuing to focus on architectural style, a Mediterranean theme wall tapestry is chosen for a finishing touch. Wall tapestry and scrolled iron are natural compliments to Mediterranean style architecture as well as the gold wall color and the rich wood tones found in the dining room table and chairs. Simple flowing lines and detail to scale create balance and harmony within the newly decorated room. In the second dining room makeover, the designer opts for smaller artwork and chooses bold prints in which the subject is easily seen from all points of the dining room. Urns and vessels, used by ancient civilizations to store and transport food, are the artwork subject. The wall art theme compliments the room's purpose. To bring the wall art to scale, an arched wrought iron topper and a vertical piece of iron enlarge, join and define the wall art display. The scrolled iron is complimentary to the light fixture and the arch in the window and door. The orange floral arrangement adds color to the room and provides another spot of greenery. The arrangement anchors the artwork to the sideboard below and it brings out the rust color in the wall art as well as in the dining room furniture.

For the best dining experience, use warm hues on the wall that are muted or shaded. Red, orange and gold colors help stimulate the appetite and, when toned-down, are excellent color choices for dining room walls. Red will need a little help from yellow to be a toned-down muted shade. Rich red walls, bold fabrics, dramatic wall decor and dark wood furnishings create a designer look, but you don't have to paint the walls red to have a red dining room. You can create your red theme with selective wall decor, dinnerware, table linens, decorative accessories and floral. Your dining room should look as if it's a natural extension of the rest of your home. Continue color and style themes used in adjoining rooms. |
