A Loire
oak dining table can add period charm to living and dining rooms of any shape or
size. Being the versatile wood it is, oak works with a variety of interiors. It
can therefore be hard to settle on a single style when it comes to matching
your Loire dining table with decor. To avoid over complicating your oak, try
these four simple suggestions:
1. Offset accents of
hard oak chairs and Loire oak dining tables by choosing overstuffed, soft seat
cushions. Wicker or rattan accessories like fruit bowls and trays make for
great centerpieces, as well as providing a storage area for keeping keys and
mobile phones in one central, easy to find location.
2. Painting walls
off-white and beige colors will make a smaller room appear larger. Oak against
white walls will give a crisp, clean feeling, but if the space feels bland,
highlight the room with brightly colored pillows or floor rugs. When with wall colors, stick to pastels like sage greens, light blues, and experimenting
citrus yellows, providing a pleasant contrast to dark, rich oaks.
3. If you’ve invested in
a Loire oak dining table it’s a shame to hide it away under a tablecloth. If
you feel the need to add a finishing touch, choose a table runner that will
partially expose the rich oak as well as work with the colors of the seat
cushions.
4. Family wall photos in
wooden frames will accentuate the tones of the Loire dining table. If your
wedding photos pose a threat to the classic French feel of the room, opt for
Victorian and landscape paintings. Depending on existing themes in other parts
of the house, faraway seascapes and quaint country cottages can add evocative ambiance and complement rustic oak
furniture.
