Your dining room is the heart of your home for gathering guests – tell your story how you want to tell it, be true to your style!</p> <p>For the dining room, I decided to go with Farmhouse style. Farmhouse decor is very inviting, relaxing and full of charm and character – it creates the perfect foundation for a cozy dining room. Follow me as I tell you my story. <br></p> <h3 class="wp-block-heading">Define your color palette</h3> <div class="wp-block-image"> <figure class="aligncenter"><a href="https://blog.mybobs.com/furniture/dining-room/dining-room-sets/p/20054614?utm_medium=content&utm_source=BobsBlog&utm_campaign=cozydiningspace&utm_content=photo3" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><img decoding="async" width="759" height="416" src="https://mybobs.wpengine.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/colors.jpg" alt="Define your color palette before you design your dining room | Bob's Discount Furniture" class="wp-image-666" srcset="https://www.mybobs.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/colors.jpg 759w, https://www.mybobs.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/colors-300x164.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 759px) 100vw, 759px" /></a></figure> </div> <p>An important step in designing any room is to decide on a color palette. A neutral palette is the perfect foundation to create any cozy space. I chose a light, neutral color palette – pale shades of gray, beige, and white, muted sage, and lavender for a touch of color. These soft colors create a bright, welcoming space!</p> <h3 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Statement pieces</strong></h3> <div class="wp-block-image"> <figure class="aligncenter"><a href="https://blog.mybobs.com/furniture/dining-room/dining-room-sets/p/20054614?utm_medium=content&utm_source=BobsBlog&utm_campaign=cozydiningspace&utm_content=photo4" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="759" height="416" src="https://mybobs.wpengine.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/table-and-hutch.jpg" alt="My Scarlett Dining Collection features a charming rustic style | Bob's Discount Furniture " class="wp-image-662" srcset="https://www.mybobs.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/table-and-hutch.jpg 759w, https://www.mybobs.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/table-and-hutch-300x164.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 759px) 100vw, 759px" /></a></figure> </div> <p>If you feel that your main pieces are a drab, it may be time to buy some new furniture or perhaps refinish some of the pieces that you already have.

Check out a few ways to personalize your dorm room or apartment space.</p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">1. Choose a light or bright wall color</h2> <p>Lighter colors can make a room look bigger, where darker hues tend to absorb light, making the room look smaller. Why do you think I wear a yellow shirt?</p> <div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter"><a href="https://blog.mybobs.com/shop-the-look/details/small-spaces?utm_medium=content&utm_source=BobsBlog&utm_campaign=farmhouseforless&utm_content=photo1" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="687" height="320" src="https://mybobs.wpengine.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/SmallSpaces-687x320-1.jpg" alt="Choose a light or bright wall color when designing for a small space | Bob's Discount Furniture " class="wp-image-271" srcset="https://www.mybobs.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/SmallSpaces-687x320-1.jpg 687w, https://www.mybobs.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/SmallSpaces-687x320-1-300x140.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 687px) 100vw, 687px" /></a></figure></div> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">2. Find multipurpose furniture</h2> <p>To maximize the space you do have, the key is to select furniture that serves more than one use. Look for items that offer hidden storage, extra surface space and alternate functions such as <a href="https://blog.mybobs.com/furniture/living-room/c/sleeper-sofas?utm_medium=content&utm_source=BobsBlog&utm_campaign=5tipssmallspaces&utm_content=sleepersofahyperlink" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" aria-label="sleeper sofa (opens in a new tab)">sleeper sofa</a>.</p> <div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter"><a href="https://blog.mybobs.com/furniture/living-room?utm_medium=content&utm_source=BobsBlog&utm_campaign=5tipssmallspaces&utm_content=photo2" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="687" height="320" src="https://mybobs.wpengine.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/SmallSpaces-687x320-2.jpg" alt="Use multipurpose furniture in your small space | Bob's Discount Furniture " class="wp-image-272" srcset="https://www.mybobs.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/SmallSpaces-687x320-2.jpg 687w, https://www.mybobs.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/SmallSpaces-687x320-2-300x140.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 687px) 100vw, 687px" /></a></figure></div> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">3.

Go vertical<br></h2> <p>Using this otherwise dead space adds a sense of height to the room and gives you some extra surface space.

It takes up less floor space and has a functional aspect of extra lighting. Take advantage of any existing architectural features in the room like ledges or consider installing a wall shelf. Get creative with your own hanging planter to bring a natural element into the space.</p> <div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter"><a href="https://blog.mybobs.com/shop-the-look/details/small-spaces?utm_medium=content&utm_source=BobsBlog&utm_campaign=5tipssmallspaces&utm_content=photo4" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="687" height="320" src="https://mybobs.wpengine.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/SmallSpaces-687x320-4.jpg" alt="Use the vertical space in your small room | Bob's Discount Furniture " class="wp-image-274" srcset="https://www.mybobs.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/SmallSpaces-687x320-4.jpg 687w, https://www.mybobs.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/SmallSpaces-687x320-4-300x140.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 687px) 100vw, 687px" /></a></figure></div> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">5.

Gather Materials</h2> <p>Collect an assortment of moss in different colors and textures. You’ll also need a base with room for soil and plants. From there, it’s all up to your imagination! Hey, maybe even include a miniature Little Bob garden gnome!</p> <div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="600" height="440" src="https://mybobs.wpengine.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/diyterrarium_01_600x440.jpg" alt="Gather materials for your terrarium | Bob's Discount Furniture" class="wp-image-264" srcset="https://www.mybobs.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/diyterrarium_01_600x440.jpg 600w, https://www.mybobs.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/diyterrarium_01_600x440-300x220.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px" /></figure></div> <p><strong><em>Pro Tip – Try using an apothecary jar, antique glass or fish bowl.</em></strong></p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">2. Fill the Base</h2> <p>Place a handful of rocks in your base for drainage.

Arrange Moss</h2> <p>Next, add damp moss to the base. Make sure to leave room to place your plants…and that garden gnome!</p> <div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="600" height="440" src="https://mybobs.wpengine.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/diyterrarium_03_600x440.jpg" alt="Arrange the moss | Bob's Discount Furniture " class="wp-image-266" srcset="https://www.mybobs.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/diyterrarium_03_600x440.jpg 600w, https://www.mybobs.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/diyterrarium_03_600x440-300x220.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px" /></figure></div> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">4. Place Plants</h2> <p>Start in the center with the taller plants and then build-out. At just two feet tall, working with these small plants makes me feel like a giant!</p> <div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="600" height="440" src="https://mybobs.wpengine.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/diyterrarium_05_600x440.jpg" alt="Add plants to your terrarium | Bob's Discount Furniture" class="wp-image-267" srcset="https://www.mybobs.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/diyterrarium_05_600x440.jpg 600w, https://www.mybobs.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/diyterrarium_05_600x440-300x220.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px" /></figure></div> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">5.

Gather Materials</h2> <p>You’ll need just a few inexpensive things like twine and small plastic containers. Don’t forget a bag of pebbles for drainage. Also, make sure you have a drill handy. Paint and other decorations are optional.</p> <div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="687" height="320" src="https://mybobs.wpengine.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/DIY-Planters-687x320-2-1.jpg" alt="Gather materials for your hanging planter | Bob's Discount Furniture" class="wp-image-252" srcset="https://www.mybobs.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/DIY-Planters-687x320-2-1.jpg 687w, https://www.mybobs.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/DIY-Planters-687x320-2-1-300x140.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 687px) 100vw, 687px" /></figure></div> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">2. Drill Some Holes</h2> <p>Drill two small holes in the containers, directly across from each other. Place the holes near the top of the container, leaving roughly half an inch from the rim so you don’t cause a crack when drilling. This is looking great!</p> <div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="687" height="320" src="https://mybobs.wpengine.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/DIY-Planters-687x320-3-1.jpg" alt="Drill holes in the top of the container | Bob's Discount Furniture" class="wp-image-253" srcset="https://www.mybobs.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/DIY-Planters-687x320-3-1.jpg 687w, https://www.mybobs.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/DIY-Planters-687x320-3-1-300x140.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 687px) 100vw, 687px" /></figure></div> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">3. Paint The Containers</h2> <p>You can spray paint the containers if you wish. How about red and yellow – or perhaps something to compliment your existing color palette? Allow plenty of time to dry before moving on to the next step, otherwise, things could get messy!</p> <div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="687" height="320" src="https://mybobs.wpengine.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/DIY-Planters-687x320-4.jpg" alt="Pain the containers | Bob's Discount Furniture" class="wp-image-255" srcset="https://www.mybobs.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/DIY-Planters-687x320-4.jpg 687w, https://www.mybobs.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/DIY-Planters-687x320-4-300x140.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 687px) 100vw, 687px" /></figure></div> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">4. String Containers Together</h2> <p>Start with the bottom container and tie one string on each side, secure with a double knot. Determine the gap between the bottom and the next container and string the twine through the holes, tying knots as you go.</p> <div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="687" height="320" src="https://mybobs.wpengine.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/DIY-Planters-687x320-5.jpg" alt="Attach string to the containers | Bob's Discount Furniture" class="wp-image-256" srcset="https://www.mybobs.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/DIY-Planters-687x320-5.jpg 687w, https://www.mybobs.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/DIY-Planters-687x320-5-300x140.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 687px) 100vw, 687px" /></figure></div> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">5. Add Your Plants</h2> <p>Put a handful of pebbles at the bottom of the container for drainage. Next, place your plants in the containers.

The look is utterly timeless and a real must-have for today’s classic and chic homes.</p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">What is tufted furniture?</h2> <p><br>Tufting is created by passing thread through layers of fabric and securing it with knots or buttons. The Chesterfield sofa is a great example of tufted furniture style. It was named after the Earl of Chesterfield (fun fact!) and has been around since the 1700’s – now that’s what I call vintage style with staying power!</p> <div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter"><a href="https://blog.mybobs.com/furniture/living-room/c/sofas?utm_medium=content&utm_source=BobsBlog&utm_campaign=tuftlove&utm_content=tuftedphoto" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="588" src="https://mybobs.wpengine.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/blogtuftedfurniture_01_2090x1200-1024x588.jpg" alt="Tufted sofas can add an air of sophistication to any space | Bob's Discount Furniture " class="wp-image-331" srcset="https://www.mybobs.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/blogtuftedfurniture_01_2090x1200-1024x588.jpg 1024w, https://www.mybobs.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/blogtuftedfurniture_01_2090x1200-300x172.jpg 300w, https://www.mybobs.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/blogtuftedfurniture_01_2090x1200-768x441.jpg 768w, https://www.mybobs.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/blogtuftedfurniture_01_2090x1200-1168x671.jpg 1168w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></a><figcaption><br>Tufted sofas can add an air of sophistication to any space</figcaption></figure></div> <p>Back in the day, tufts kept the stuffing within a sofa, typically made out of horsehair, from moving around and bunching up in one spot. Today, tufting is more about style than function and it’s seen just as often in furniture with clean, modern lines as it is in furniture with more traditional silhouettes. Tufting works beautifully on a variety of fabrics, from linen to velvet and leather. Each material introduces a unique tone and texture, highlighted by the tufting.</p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">What’s the best way to add tufted furniture to a room?</h2> <p><br>So how can you incorporate tufted pieces into your space? Easy! A tufted piece can anchor a room, so use it as a focal point. Keep the items around your tufted piece a bit more simple and clean. This will create elegant contrast and modernize the trend. And remember, tufted furniture is not just for the <a rel="noreferrer noopener" aria-label="living room (opens in a new tab)" href="https://blog.mybobs.com/furniture/living-room?utm_medium=content&utm_source=BobsBlog&utm_campaign=tuftlove&utm_content=livingroomhyperlink" target="_blank">living room</a>.

Form truly meets function here, with a style that’s super comfortable too. Sitting up for reading or breakfast in bed never felt so good or luxurious.</p> <p><br>So go ahead, bring this timeless trend home now.
