If you’re feeling tired of your dining space, there are plenty of ways to make small changes to completely revamp it and here’s how I refreshed my dining nook:
Change Out the Chairs
When I originally bought this table, I also bought four matching midcentury modern chairs. It was just a little too stiff for my taste so after a couple years, I switched them out and picked two different sets of chairs–this white chair on sale for $138 and the outdoor wicker chairs.
I find that searching several sites to compare pricing and options can help you find the right furniture or anything really. For example, I originally wanted these CB2 chairs but they were way too pricy and found a pair of matching outdoor chairs that gave me similar vibes that were affordable for me.
Add Plants
Another great, cheap way to update a space? Add a plant–real or faux. I buy most of my plants from Home Depot and pick hardy ones that end up being no more than $30.
They add inject some life and color into a room. I have an air plant, pothos plant and bird of paradise, all real except air plant died years ago and shriveled up into something that looks cool from afar on a shelf.
I also love a quality faux plant like this one from Target that I have and these dried out pampas in the vase on the table. Plus, I love these little faux succulents that I have throughout the house to fill up space on shelves.
Update the Walls
I made small tweaks with the walls by adding one wall of wallpaper using this peel and stick buffalo plaid print, which is super affordable and easy to remove. I love this wallpaper option because if you want to try something else, easy to remove and apply a new peel and stick wallpaper. Plus, I love the extra dimension it gives to the space instead of the plain white.
You can easily change out wall decor too–sometimes I change up a room by moving pieces I own from one space to another. And Target has a ton of great options. I especially love a framed set of two, takes the guess work out of how to style a wall-just throw a set up. I can’t find the one in this room, but I also bought this set and love it.
I also have two of these pine floating shelves and I add plants, candles and vintage items to style them.
Add Texture and Color
I love a cow hide rug (and own this faux cow hide too although it’s not the one in the photo!) This authentic cow hide looks similar to mine and on sale.
Here’s a great throw blanket similar to mine and on sale. Major boho vibes. This one too!
These throw pillows and this woven pillow have such great color and texture.
