The moment I saw these dining chairs and table from Suzanne and Lauren's recent trip to the ever-popular Brimfield show, I've been wishing this is what my dining room chairs and table looked like.  I even think this antique white would look great with the fabric from my newly upholstered seat bottoms.  If only I had the patience and know-how to actually make my cherry finish dining set look this good.
I love the look of demure white furniture with other bold accents in a room.  If I had to envision the dining room I would want it would be a mix of formal and playful.  I would first take this antique white dining table set and place it in a room with medium gray walls.

Next I'd add a splash of color with this beautiful rug.

Don't forget the chandelier!  Every dining needs one of these - formal or simple in style.

On one side of the room I would definitely have a beautiful buffet table with a gorgeous mirror over top and various accent pieces adorning the top of the console.  Especially two large alabaster lamps to anchor each side.
