Sarah 101 {Jewel-Like Dining}
What I liked most about this case study was the transformation from bland to elegant with a flare of whimsy and old world. The added touches of wall panelling, chair rail, stained and painted floors really started to give this room personality without yet bringing in any furniture or accessories. While this room isn’t my style preference, it’s certainly full of wonderful touches and would be lovely for entertaining guests.
3 Take A Ways. If using wallpaper with a large design be sure to talk to your installer about the repetition beforehand, ensuring it looks balanced on each wall. Repeat design elements to create a cohesive look. Here, the painted key design on the floor was repeated in the mirror frame and the inside fabric on the dining chairs. Rectangle dining tables are the most versatile.

The elements I like best in the dining room are the wallpaper and the two different fabrics on the chairs. I also really like the mirror, and love that they painted the ceiling.
I would have painted the wall below the chair rail a solid colour (probably the lighter grey). The two-tone wainscoting looks too busy to me.
