Hi Julie, I have antique Arts and Crafts quarter sawn oak round table. It has 2 leaves, which makes it oval-shaped. I've paired it with Pottery Barn upholstery chairs, and I love it. I have an open floor plan, so it works well between the kitchen and living area.

I recently was able to find a vintage Ikea table I have loved since my kids were little, back in 1998. It's solid beechwood and took my husband and son to move it. This was when Ikea still made alot of real wood furniture. I got the kronvik table and four chairs with the Risom woven parachute strap style. A few weeks ago I found two more of the chairs. I didn't want matching chairs but for now I am going to keep them. Thank you SO much for your informative videos. You are a gem! 🤗🥰🥰🥰🥰

Such beautiful pieces. Loved them all! I have owned so many tables over the years. But I’m currently planning my forever home and so I knew that I needed my “forever dining table.” And I found it! It’s a gorgeous ornate antique (c1880) walnut English dining table. I also found a set of walnut fiddleback chairs, complete with carvers, from the 40’s with their beautiful original upholstery that go well, without matching exactly. These will go beautifully in my new transitional space and I love them so much.

Great vlog Julie. The measurements to be aware of are so helpful. We had a bespoke polished concrete table made for our open plan dining area in 2018. It’s 3 metres in length and about 1.5 m wide and seats 12 comfortably. We love it as it’s so practical and easy to keep clean. The legs are made of raw steel so it has a real industrial look but also the patina is beautiful at the same time. I would also add that the reason we chose this material is that the dining area is at the back of the house and get sun all day from the south facing garden. There is also a glass lantern above it so you need to make sure you choose a material that will be resistant to heat and sunlight in this case. Look forward to your next vlog.😊

Hi Julie! I have an oval dining table French country Ethan Allen. 20 years old. I just liked the look when I bought it. Now I appreciate the rounded edges. When I have work done in my home I always ask for smooth corners no sharp edges. You are smart to think of safety when you have little ones. But the thing that is not good about this Ethan Allen table is the legs go to the edges. This ruins the seating capacity at the edges. Your samples show the pedestals or a more centered base allowing more people to sit at the table. This is smart design by the furniture makers. I like your new do! You look terrific! See you soon! Margaret

Pottery barn has some pretty ones too. The Fort round and rectangular tables are pretty. Also the Toscana. I like the servers on those too. I have several old dining tables that I like. One is a Tell City Trestle Table, also some antique wood tables. Also, drop leaves so you can make them fold down when you aren't using the table.

Hi Julie, Your video covered a great variety and I love all of your examples. My sewing table is a Walnut Trestle table that I found in an antique store many years ago ($100.00 and all of the table edges are rounded!), but now you have me thinking that I could change it out with the dark Tiger Oak Draw-leaf table (our dining table now) that I bought 3 years ago. We gave our light-toned tiger oak Table, Buffet and Chairs to our son when he graduated from college. I had him pick out an upholstery fabric, and we added good foam and recovered the chairs. They look wonderful and they sit very comfortably. I was raised in a house w/ a glass breakfast table, and there won't be one in my house. Thank you.

Love your videos, would love to see a few with tiny rooms in tiny homes. We want to do our diningroom over but it's ridiculously built for comfort. It's 9ft wide and 14 ft long with 2 exits on each long wall, and 1 exit on each end wall with a chimney smack in the middle of one of the long walls that we assume was a pot belly stove connection. No matter which table we try, we can barely get by.

About 8 years ago, we got a dining table from Wayfair. It is more narrow than most. I’m not sure, but you might be able to put the size you’re looking for in their search bar. You also might want to check out having a custom table built for the space, that is narrower than normal. You might be able to find someone locally who could do it inexpensively, and I think there are probably lots of woodworkers on Etsy, as well. Best of luck!

Nice! my table is about the right size and the right form for my dinning room (when expended that is)! ^_^ When I was in my previous apartment, the dinning space in the kitchen wasn't as generous, so I placed one of the smaller side of the 3' x 4' table against a wall and placed two chairs on each of the longer sides (instead of one chair by side). That gave me enough room to move in and out of the kitchen or open the fridge door. Is it a viable solution for a small space or should I have chosen a smaller table instead?
