Help! Bought wrong size table/ chairs decorating help

 

‘My husband and I normally buy furniture that’s to large but now we bought a table that to small. Help! Can’t return it so I’m trying to decorate the room so you don’t notice how small the table is. It’s 45 round but looks out of place. 

 

‘Please help me decorate this room. Not handy with computer images. 

Pictures will be in comments.

 

thank you!!

@Beautiful life ..this may not work for you but how about a glass piece or unbreakable glass, cut larger than the top?.....maybe a beautiful tablecloth then add the glass?

 

If kids are using the table this would probably not work.

You can have a piece of glass cut that's a few inches larger in diameter than the table to top it or you can have a piece of......oh lordy I'm going blank on the word.....it's a sturdy plasticky material cut in a larger round to top it and then use tablecloths. Glass keeps the area looking larger.

 

Came back to say I see momtodogs and I had the same ideas.

Cute dinette set and room ! 

If you prefer a wood top rather than glass, I have seen round wood table tops at the home improvement store.

The table is too small for the room or do you mean the table is too small for your needs?

Hi, @Beautiful life 

Cute table!  I do not think it looks too small for the room.  It is nice to have plenty of space to walk around the table with people seated.  Pretty room, I like the windows.

What a beautiful dining nook!

 

Maybe....heavier, more substantial chairs?

Or something substainal on the back wall which would

’anchor’ the space? Or course a large rug would visually

take up space...??

Looking at the picture it appears that the table is not in proportion with the chairs. While having a piece of glass cut or a pice of wood made to put over the table with a tablecloth might work visibly it is not sturdy. If this is a table you use a lot it will cause problems. I would try to sell the table and chalk it up to a decorating mistake. Good luck.
