Come dine with me
January 2008
Christmas has been and gone,
and yes it’s that time of year
again... Happy New Year! You’ve
just spent a good few hours
taking down the Christmas
decorations, found the odd stray
bauble and a sharp pine needle
or two located dangerously in
your sock and something
definitely feels amiss...
|
Your house is bound to look a little bare
this January, especially the dining area
now all that yummy food has been eaten,
and all the decorations have been
squeezed back into the cupboard until
next year.
Worry not, there’s no need for your dining
room to be completely forgotten about
for another year - why not make a fresh
start for 2008 and create a new look
which will satisfy all your entertaining
needs.
The thought of transforming an important
room can be a daunting one, however
with their in-house interior design service
to help you every step of the way,
Fishpools will ensure that you make the
right choice – they have a number of
different ranges to appeal to all tastes.
The majority of homes now have open
plan living areas, so choosing a table
that suits the workings of your home
is a really important factor to
consider when selecting the perfect
design.
The number of hungry mouths you
will be feeding also plays a vital role
in deciding on the type of dining
furniture. If you’re a person who likes
to entertain or have a big household
then an extendable table will ensure
that nobody goes hungry!
The Oakswood collection is an
example of beautiful simplicity.
Functional yet pleasing on the eye the
Oakswood will suit most dining areas
and can be dressed up or down,
depending on the occasion.
For pure class, take a look at the
Pandora collection, made from solid oak.
With a table like this there’s no need for
a traditional table cloth - the knots in
the oak are a beautiful feature of the
table so it would be a shame to cover
them up. Place a simple runner down
the middle and dress with candles and
flowers. This will give the table an
instant air of simple elegance.
For some contemporary style, take a
look at the ever popular Monaco
collection, which is available with either
glass or wooden tops. Paired with crisp
white leather high back chairs, this
collection is oh so simple, but oh so
chic! Dressed with flowers to add a little
colour, it’s the perfect addition to any
modern dining room, and will suit most
colour schemes.
The traditional look is always a popular
one when it comes to dining rooms. If opulence is more your bag then the
Serafina dining collection will suit you
down to the ground. In a frosted
almond finish this collection is the
perfect way to create a classic, luxurious
dining space.
A tip if your dining room is a little on
the small side is to incorporate a large
mirror into the look – this acts as a
brilliant space maximiser – even if it’s
only visually.
So, whether you fancy a modern dining
room, a traditional family dining area
or maybe even one with an
international twist to it, Fishpools’
ranges of dining tables and chairs are a
great way to kick start 2008!
