What are examples of dining room table decor

Popular dining room table decor ideas start with the centerpiece, such as fresh-cut flowers. Some ideas include seasonal fresh flowers or fruits, nature-inspired decor and a blend of glass and metals that integrates the colors of the room or a theme.


Decor for dining room tables begins with the centerpiece and moves outward using the table as a pallet. Choosing a seasonal fresh-cut flower centerpiece gives a color pallet and theme to start with. Better Homes and Gardens suggests branching out to each table setting and layering the setting. Use a large charger at the bottom of the place setting, and build up with smaller plates that guests use throughout the meal. Taking this decor idea further, move out to use cloth napkins in colors that match the flower centerpiece and coasters that use a solid color from the entire ensemble to bring everything together.
Seasonal centerpieces and dining room table decor can focus on a particular symbol of the season that shows a common thread between hosts and guests. Orange for fall, yellow for spring and white or blue for winter are just a few of the color options that others may recognize. Wine glass charms, cloth napkins, centerpiece confetti and table runners bring these color themes together into a cohesive design theme.

How do you build a dining room table

To build a dining room table, create the surface with 2-by-6 wood, add wood strips, make the skirt frame, and connect the skirt and legs. You also need a wood block, 2-by-4 boards, nails, carriage bolts, screws, tape, a hammer and iron bands to complete this project.


  1. Make the surface

    Surface the 2-by-6s with a planer to make a smooth surface.
  2.  
  3.  
  4. Apply the wood strips

    Fuse the boards together by connecting the tongue-and-groove ends. Screw 2-inch wood strips over the surface. Avoid using screws if a smooth surface is desired.
  5.  
  6. Assemble the skirt frame

    Flip over the table. Make 17 1/3 inches out of the 2-by-4s to comprise the short end, and make 53-inch pieces from the 2-by-4s to make the long parts. Miter 8-1/2-inch wood pieces to make diagonal corners. Use a clamp and pocket jig to make pocket holes to get the frame to attach to the table.
  7.  
  8. Piece together the skirt frame

    Nail the wood pieces together, but leave space for the 4-by-4 legs. Position the miter blocks diagonally at the corners to hold the frame together.
  9.  
  10. Connect the skirt

    Place the skirt on the table using the pocket holes with 1-3/4-inch screws.
  11.  
  12. Connect the legs

    Use a hand saw to chamfer 4 inches of each leg corner to get the rail, stile and cross brace to connect. Use dowel screws to attach the legs using the cross brace.
  13.  
  14. Remove the wood strips

    Turn over the table, and remove the 2-inch strips. Cut the table down a desired length with a circular saw.
  15.  
  16. Mortise the table

    Mortise the ends with a circular saw, and use a router to remove the remaining pieces. Bend two iron bands with pliers, and place the strips on each table end with a block and hammer.
