Top Dining Room Decor Items on Amazon
Dining rooms in apartments always tend to be very small, in some cases non-existent. This means it is vital to make the most out of these spaces. So you don’t want to overcrowd it, but you don’t want to be bare either.
- One of the biggest things that make a difference in the vibe of a space is lighting! If you have a rectangular dining table, try opting for something like this light fixture that can feel more coherent shape-wise.
2. If you’re tight on space in your apartment, something like this sleek kitchen bar dining table is at an affordable price point. Although this is the only product not offered with prime, included shopping costs still come in well under $200!
3. Another item that can really change up the space (and carve out a dedicated space), is rugs. For dining rooms you’ll always want to opt for low pile rugs. I’ve really fallen in love with the look of this seagrass area rug, but you can also check out my post on 8 beautiful area rugs for more inspo!
4. This corner shelving unit is amazing if you are in a smaller space as well! You could use it for storing snacks, extra plates, mugs, a coffee station, or just for decor. It comes in multiple colors too!
5. When it comes to wall art in small spaces, go with bigger/simpler prints to give more of an airy/spacious feel. I have some free floral art printables you can download, or you can consider something like this from Amazon (works best with textured walls or cream/light colored walls.
6. And finally, a bit of a random favourite but I’ve been really enjoying table runners especially in the fall. This cute boho table runner adds a farmhouse vibe to your dining room and it’d go great with lighter furniture or wooden accents in the dining area.
With a little creativity, you can create a stylish and functional dining nook that maximizes every inch. Be sure to check out my post on How to Make Your Home Look More Expensive On A Budget as well!
