The orange hue of the table is a little off but a nice light color would lighten up the feel of the table and you might even like it too. It is very difficult to enjoy all of your guests. And as a guest, feels very stiff and hierarchical. I’ve been thinking lately about how to get out of our heads the thoughts and worries of “needing everything to be perfect” before we open our homes, and how to replace those thoughts and feelings with love and contentment.When will things be good enough? The most important thing is allowing enough clearance to walk around the table while diners are seated at it.Comfortable seating should allow 24 to 28 inches of table edge per seat. For our family, this arrangement works best and every room is utilized. What is more important, square footage or experiences for our children and teaching them the value of generosity and giving? That said, what we’d really like to have vs. what will actually function well in the space, might be too different things. Round tables up to 60 inches can seat four -- or six if the larger table has a pedestal base.While recommendations vary, a clearance of 36 to 42 inches from table edge to a wall or other furniture allows adequate space for seating plus a walkway behind the diners. thanks!i love this post, Sandy.
Her articles have appeared in ByLine, Living Natural and New Mexico Woman. The size of the table is fine but consider painting it white. this space feels so much better.I loved this post. :)But we’ve learned to get creative with the space and Our home is full of love. For family functions needing seating for 14-17, we MOVE THE TABLE AND ADD ANOTHER TABLE INTO THE LIVING ROOM which drives me nuts (not to mention nicks on my table from young men bumping into walls, but that’s OK cause it adds character and memories! we recently moved to a beautiful home that GOD truly blessed us with and finally, i thought: we’ll have “enough space” to entertain more!
Entertaining is not about us, our family, our plans in life–although most people do converse back and forth–but is about encouraging and connecting with the people seated in our chairs and on our carpets.They don’t crave more and more, but they enjoy what they have.And just like I prayed, when we lived in our first house with that square table, it was about trusting that in due time, that more will come my way. I'm Sandyâlover of food, family, cooking, THE BIG BOARD, travel, and bringing people together. Based in Albuquerque, Burch is a Feng Shui consultant and Jin Shin Jyutsu practitioner. The most important thing is … . We forget this too often and it’s nice to be reminded what is really important.I think there were times I longed for a larger table or larger dining room…now I don’t technically have a dining room but we received a table years ago from friends that is huge. I’ve done that. It’ll make a great story later, too.I love this post. When determining dining table size, consider the number of seats at the table, the clearance around the table and the room's proportions. Using this guideline, a dining room 10-by-12-feet long accommodates a table 36 to 42 inches wide and 60 to 72 inches long. Long, narrow dining areas need long, rectangular tables. I get SO nervous about having people over and I always stress about everything being perfect before they come. I'm looking at a new dining room table that measures 96" x 43" (8 ft by 3 1/2 ft).
Standard dining table heights range from 28 to 30 inches (71–76cm), which should be matched with a chair height of 18 to 23 inches (46–58cm, from floor to seat top), benches or stools.
A place where I could entertain just like my mom did.
