HOW TO MAKE A VINTAGE COUNTRY DINING ROOM

by Mike's Furniture


There is nothing as homey as the look of a tablecloth on the table and the smell of something coming out of the oven. You can create that warm sense of nostalgia by introducing a few well-placed items around your home. And with a little help, that happy sunshiny feeling will greet you every time you walk in the door. 



Here's what to use so you can dine in vintage country style:

  • Whitewashed or distressed furniture
  • Vintage items with a new found purpose
  • Old-fashioned doors; reused or reinvented as wall art, tabletops or room dividers
  • Bushel baskets (or wire baskets) filled with magazines, mittens, mail or anything that needs a home
  • Mason jars as glassware, silverware holders or candle jars
  • Red and white checked gingham tablecloths, napkins or dishtowels
  • White curtains at the window and white china on the table
  • Rugs on the floor, any kind will do: painted cloth, rag, braided or jute (to name a few)
  • And flowers everywhere: in vases, pitchers, bottles or jars
