ideas setting up living room furniture

hi, i'm ann myrick and today i'm going toshow you how to arrange dining room furniture. and, first i would say, have fun. i am a decoratorthat specializes in working with what people have. and i really like to create and makemyself work with what's right there. and a lot of times you can get very creative whenyou do that, instead of walking in and spending a lot of money for chairs that maybe the nextdoor neighbor might have. so, this is a very small spot and it has, i used a little pubtable. this is a little pub table that is square, but i have it, both leaves out. andon this one, what i did is, i inherited this chair from my mother. and my mother and i,this is my mother and this is me. i'm a real laid back, just what you see is what you get,kind of person. and my mother was very, loved

needle point, very old school. and i justhad fun with this dining room. because what i did is, who would usually put a formal needlepoint chair with a chair out the dump? but, to me it was fun because it communicated therelationship and the difference between my mother and i. so, i just have fun, every timei pass this table, i have fun with it because i think of my mother and i think of myself.one way to do it. another way, i go into the living room and two chairs that i have ifi want a whole different look, are these little wheel chairs that have upholstered cushions.and it creates a whole different, excuse the dog he's pretty comfortable right now, itcreates just a whole different look. it brings color into the room.

and it creates just a whole fun look. putsomething simple, quick, fun on the table. this again, i love using what i have. thiscame from my family, old bread basket. i just put a little bit of spanish moss with someyarrow in it, and it brings out the colors of the yellow orange. an old armoire, funto use them as storage, fun to just keep them shut and just have a great piece sitting inyour dining room. this is ann myrick and that is how you decorate a dining room.
