Pretty Dining Room...

I find the burled wood table and sideboard to be so lovely. The wallpaper, while not for everybody, is, to me, very pretty.

Really like this room. Have to change out those white chairs though.

Have not added wallpaper to any homes that I have owned , just because it is not as easy to change as in repainting a room another color. Love this wallpaper and all the furnishings .

Very lovely! really like the colors and the wallpaper too. Very fancy tho but I would eat a meal in there.

I love that scalloped table-- beautiful-- and the delicate chandelier. The rug is disappointing, and the wallpaper, while fanciful, is too much for me, with all the other elements. That sky blue background color of the wallpaper is very pretty though-- I'd like that in a plain, painted wall.

@skatting44 I have learned through my long life and some tears that wallpaper properly applied on properly stripped walls is easy to remove. And to put up new is far less mess than painting.

In this room I love it all except the chairs. I would get those chairs that are similar but with the round backs, and they would be in a darker color. Those square harsh white ones call too much attention to themselves. All you see is chairs, chairs, chairs.

I like everything but the wallpaper and the lamps.

I think it is beautiful and elegant, I would however change out the chandelier.

If I had to keep that awful wallpaper, I'd replace the blah rug with one the color of the base of the lamps.

I'm not liking the chandelier either, but otherwise I see this as a pretty place to have lunch with the ladies. The blue is pretty, but living there, I would get tired of the wallpaper eventually.

The wall paper is too much for me. If this room had a solid neutral wall it could work. I'd get rid of the mirror too.

Very elegant.

The only change I would make are the chairs. I would prefer a color. I do love everything else , the lovely table, the wallpaper, chandelier and drapes.. I think the only reason I like the wallpaper is because the trees resemble dogwood trees which I love.

It's a nicely balanced room. I understand why they added the rectangular lampshades and chairs to offset the curves of the wallpaper and the table. I think the lampshades look odd on those particular lamps, though.

Pretty, yes, but so not my style.

I agree about switching out the white chairs. Everything else is lovely

@stevieb This room isn't my style at all but I love it, and love that wallpaper and I'm not a wallpaper person. I would need to get different fabric for the chairs and change that light fixture. But the room is really pretty.

I like the mirror above the sideboard.

This is one of those rooms that is not me at all but I think it is beautiful for someone elses home.

I don't care for the scalloped design on the table and maybe a different less ornate chandelier.

Unfortunately, there's not too much I really care for here. I'm not a fan of wallpaper and this much of this design would make me anxious. I do, however, love that mirror and those lamps!!!
