Simple Tips for Styling a Small Dining Area

Even if your home or apartment doesn’t have a separate dining room, that doesn’t mean you should have to eat your meals on TV trays or at your desk. Believe it or not, it’s possible to create a dining space in virtually any size home—it just takes some creativity and a smart shopping plan. Review our three simple tips and learn how to make the most of your living space!

Purchase a Round Dining Table

The shape of your dining table is important, and a round dining table is a great choice if you have limited space to spare. Without the sharp corners that square and rectangular dining tables have, round tables take up less space and are more versatile. Whether you want to place your dining table in a corner or at the center of a room, with a round dining table you can do so with ease. Also, if an unexpected guest drops by, it’s easy to squeeze in an extra space with a round dining table—a feat which is nearly impossibly with any other table shape.

Choose a Drop-leaf Dining Table

If you need a dining table just for two, but you anticipate entertaining from time to time, then a drop-leaf table may be the right choice for you. For daily dining, place your drop-leaf table flush against a wall with one or both leaves folded down. This will save you plenty of space in your home, while also providing more than enough room for two diners. Feel like hosting a dinner party? Fully extend your drop-leaf table when guests arrive to increase seating capacity, then simply fold the leaves back down when you’re done.

Consider Dining Benches or Stools

While high back dining chairs are the usual choice for formal dining rooms, if you are short on space, then it’s best to think outside the box. Dining room benches or counter stools are a good alternative because they take less space. They can even be tucked under the table when not in use, to further maximize their space-saving capabilities. Counter stools are a good choice if you want to provide each diner with their own personal space, while dining benches are perfect for those who prefer an intimate atmosphere.
