Dining sets are so last decade. Mismatched chairs show a lot more personality and individuality than matching chairs. If you have kids, they’ll have so fun picking out their own chair designs and colors!

But if you’re not quite ready to make the plunge into totally mismatched chairs for your dining room remodeling, start with an accent chair! Pick and color and print that really pops out!

 

5. Add Accent Lighting

Dining room remodeling can sometimes be as simple as changing one or two elements. Figure out which furniture or decor pieces you want to make the focal point of your space, and then just find eye-catching and creative options. Accent lighting is a great place to start!

 

6. Switch Up Your Paintings

Who says you’re limited to individual dining chairs? A sofa, bench, or other uncommon seating options can set your space apart and make your dining room remodeling worth it.

 

8. Refresh Your Existing Furniture

There are times when what you need is right in front of you. If you’re not ready to switch out your furniture just yet, maybe a refresh is what you need! Change the fabric, do little tweaks—they’ll go a long way, I promise.

 

9. Try Out A New Style

Sometimes you don’t need to add things for a dining room refresh. Maybe it’s time to de-clutter? Going minimalist is one option, but simply purging unwanted or unneeded furniture and decor can make your dining room look like a totally different space.

 

11. Add A Fresh Coat Of Paint
