The holidays are just around the corner. It is a busy time of year, but luckily you have already completed your dining room remodeling project with beautiful wainscoting panels from New England Classic. The walls are a warm chocolate brown and you have our classic traditional raised panel wainscoting and painted it a crisp white.
Now on to constructing your table masterpiece. Time to have some fun and get creative! Traditionally, when you think of a dining room table at thanksgiving, you think fall foliage, pumpkins, and gourds. Think again! It is time to reinvent the dining room table. Following through with the dark chocolate walls and white wainscoting panels, use a brown and white theme. Instead of your traditional place mats, find a brown stripe or chevron napkin and starch and iron them. This is a cheaper alternative and adds an element of design with the square shape. Burlap is a hugely popular decorating tool right now, and very inexpensive. Re-purpose candleholders and candles by wrapping burlap strips and tying ribbon or twine around the middle. Use the same ribbon or twine, or a combination of both to wrap around your napkins. For the center of the table find along rectangular open container. Distress this a beautiful white color, then fill with acorns, pine cones, and moss. Add some large decorative balls in a brown and white print to either side. You have just created an exquisite thanksgiving table with minimal cost or effort.
This beautiful, contemporary decorated table looks stunning in your newly remodeled dining room. New England Classic offers wainscoting panels that allow you to complete this project without a headache or losing the holiday spirit. We offer laminate and veneer wainscot paneling options. These are available in pre-finished or unfinished choices. Contact us today to get your project started!
