3 Ways to Style Your Dining Table for Spring

Dinner's ready, and instead of tucking in at the table you'd much rather settle yourself on the sofa... Sound familiar? Then it's time to give your dining space the attention it deserves!

The good news is - bringing new flavour to your interior doesn't have to be difficult.

Our in-house experts have created three enviable looks to get your imagination going. Each one is styled around our bestselling Navarro Star Dining Table, and shows just how easy it is to reinvent an existing piece of furniture. Let's see how they did it...

Botanical banquet

Bring serenity and peace to your dining room with earthy hues and statement accessories.

An elegant look with a touch of whimsy - who wouldn't want to dine here?!

Green is still having its moment in the interiors world, and it's not hard to see why. Lively yet harmonious, it's a colour that won't fall out of favour any time soon! The perfect palette for a naturally vibrant dining space, we'd recommend tonal shades of emerald, lime and moss to keep things fresh.

For your seating, dining chairs in luxurious forest green velvet will look stunning beside almost any table, while a colourful metal cabinet delivers an unexpected twist.

If you thought the botanical theme wasn't for you, think again! You can go as subtle and sophisticated as you like with this look.

We've achieved a grownup finish with shapely glass vases, realistic wall art and elegant candle holders in smooth black finishes. There's still room for a little fun though! Our charming giraffe table lamp injects a spot of wild character, and we thoroughly support a sprawling plant or two.

Rustic charm

An elegant look with a touch of whimsy - who wouldn't want to dine here?!

A welcoming space all year round, this dining room is sure to keep guests coming back for seconds!

Different wood finishes give you a good variety of textures while maintaining a pleasantly cohesive effect. The idea is to complement, not to match! We love the carved detailing on the Navarro sideboard, whose smooth 3D front gives it a nicely unique character without dominating the scene.

Brown leather dining chairs are just perfect for a rustic scheme, particularly those with natural, rugged markings. Here, we've opted for chairs with black metal legs for a modern-industrial contrast.

Navarro Sideboard

Handcrafted ceramics and wooden accessories are right at home here, helping to embrace the less-than-perfect aesthetic that rustic interiors are all about.

You'll want to keep your colour palette quite subdued throughout, but that doesn't mean you can't experiment! Combine rich browns, pale tans and soft greys for a natural flow. And to finish, a couple of warm metallic pieces will really help to uplift your space - we've gone for a bronze dish that feels thoroughly vintage.

Luxe Neutrals

Dine in style with sophisticated shades and contemporary finishing touches.

A serene palette with eye-catching and edgy pieces, this divine space is calling out for a dinner party!

Nothing says luxe quite like velvet, so find yourself some new seating in irresistibly soft fabric. A refined shade of grey offers endless versatility, and you just can't beat that silvery sheen! Here, the Quebec chair brings a lovely cool tone into the mix, and certainly dials up the decadence.

In beautiful balance, our Anatolia sideboard is the epitome of warmth. Its deep brown oak looks stunning against the glamorous brass door handles. Extra points for the elegant fluted detailing, too!

Dress your dining space with softly shaped items to get the graceful look just right. We've brought in smoked glass vases and bowls for a delicate touch, while the matte white accessories lend a cool artistic finish.

A clever combination of vintage and modern designs will make your dining room stand out above the rest. Set abstract shapes against metallic wall art and lighting for an opulent yet trendy feel. If you're worried about overdoing the glitz and glamour, simply break up the scene with a couple of quirky statement pieces. Enter: our fabulous tilted face vase. We couldn't resist!
