dining room table seats 10
even if you have the most beautiful rug,it all falls by the wayside if you don't have the right size of rug. area rugsdefine your space. in a dining room the rug centralizes the table and chairsacting like a foundation, a base or a landing for your furniture. but the mostimportant thing about a dining room rug is the size. let's discuss the number onerule! with dining rooms, the key is to have comfortable space for your chairsto move in and out beneath the table without getting caught on the rug. here'sa dining room with a three foot by six foot table in the center of the room. andhere we have an area rug that sits under the table comfortably. but you'll noticethat the chairs are sitting half on and
half off. so this rug is too small. buthere we add 24 inches to each size of the table. it's important that you add toeach side of the table not just two feet to the length and width. this will giveyou the minimum space your rug should cover and will allow space for yourchairs to move in and out without getting caught on the rug. so in thiscase we need an area rug that spans the space of 7 feet by 10 feet. this sizemight be difficult to find so i'd round up to an 8 by 10 area rug. this rughere, albeit beautiful, is too close to the table size. you can see that thechairs are already on the edge of the rug. so if you were to pull out the chair,sit and then adjust the chair closer to
the table, you'll be sitting half on and half off the carpet making it awkward anduncomfortable. unlike these images here... there's plenty of room around the tablefor the chairs to move in and out. so here's your take away: in the diningroom, the rug centralizes the table and chairs acting like a foundation or alanding for your furniture. it's not enough to have a rug that just fits yourtable and chairs. the rule is to always add 24 inches to each side of yourdining room table to allow you to move your chairs in and out freely withoutgetting caught on the rug. thanks for watching this little design tip. i'llhave lots more design tips just like
