When you\u2019re working with limited square feet you have to make smart choices about furniture selection and placement. That\u2019s not to say that your dining room can\u2019t still have a sense of style to it, because it can! Here are seven space-saving tips to maximize your small dining room.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>1. Find a Corner<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Pick out a corner in your kitchen or living room to transform into your new dining space. Try to find a corner near a window so you can take advantage of natural light. Sunlight is a great way to make the space feel more open and airier!<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/blog.mybobs.com\/furniture\/dining-room\/c\/dining-room-sets?utm_medium=content&utm_source=BobsBlog&utm_campaign=7smalldiningtips&utm_content=photo2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"683\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/mybobs.wpengine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/window-683x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Find a corner in your kitchen to transform into your dining space | Bob's Discount Furniture \" class=\"wp-image-744\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mybobs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/window-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/www.mybobs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/window-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.mybobs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/window-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.mybobs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/window-1168x1752.jpg 1168w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 683px) 100vw, 683px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/blog.mybobs.com\/furniture\/dining-room\/c\/dining-tables?query=:Table%20Shape:Round\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Round tables<\/a> are a fun and stylish solution for a small dining space and fit nicely into any corner. Mix things up with adjustable <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.mybobs.com\/furniture\/dining-room\/c\/counter-bar-stools?query=:Stool%20Height:Bar%20Stool%20Height\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">bar stools<\/a>, or a fun upholstery on your chairs to add in more color and texture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>2. Define the Space<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/blog.mybobs.com\/home-decor\/c\/area-rugs?utm_medium=content&utm_source=BobsBlog&utm_campaign=7smalldiningtips&utm_content=photo3\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"417\" src=\"https:\/\/mybobs.wpengine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/rug-1-1024x417.jpg\" alt=\"Define your small dining area with an area rug | Bob's Discount Furniture \" class=\"wp-image-748\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mybobs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/rug-1-1024x417.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.mybobs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/rug-1-300x122.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.mybobs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/rug-1-768x313.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.mybobs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/rug-1-1168x475.jpg 1168w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>A small area rug helps to define any space. Try tucking your rug underneath the furniture to create a cozy feel and not let the rug overwhelm the space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>3. Choose a Compact Table<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/blog.mybobs.com\/furniture\/bar-furniture\/bar-and-counter-tables\/counter-tables\/p\/20062411\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"700\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.mybobs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Small-spaces-dining-room.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6361\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mybobs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Small-spaces-dining-room.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.mybobs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Small-spaces-dining-room-300x210.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.mybobs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Small-spaces-dining-room-768x538.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>Look for tables that have a small footprint while still providing ample dining space. Glass top tables are perfect for small rooms because they don\u2019t take up a ton of space and the clear top feels less intrusive. Add a little fun to your space by making a gallery wall feature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>4. Pull Up a Bar Stool<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/blog.mybobs.com\/furniture\/bar-furniture\/bar-stools\/p\/20039550028\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"700\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.mybobs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Sonoma-kitchen-island-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6387\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mybobs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Sonoma-kitchen-island-2.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.mybobs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Sonoma-kitchen-island-2-300x210.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.mybobs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Sonoma-kitchen-island-2-768x538.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>You can\u2019t have a bar-style table without bar stools to sit on! Bar stools pair perfectly with bar tables and tuck nicely under the table when you’re not using them, saving you precious floorspace. Adjustable <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.mybobs.com\/furniture\/dining-room\/c\/counter-bar-stools?query=:Stool%20Height:Bar%20Stool%20Height\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">bar stools<\/a> and stools with a swivel mechanism make for great functional choices in small spaces as well!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>5. Use Multipurpose Pieces<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/blog.mybobs.com\/furniture\/bar-furniture\/bars\/p\/20039550022\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"700\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.mybobs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Sonoma-kitchen-island-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6389\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mybobs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Sonoma-kitchen-island-1.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.mybobs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Sonoma-kitchen-island-1-300x210.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.mybobs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Sonoma-kitchen-island-1-768x538.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>In a small space, it’s important your furniture do double duty!

Just make sure you choose comfy and supportive dining chairs, like my chairs with <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.mybobs.com\/furniture\/dining-room\/c\/dining-chairs?query=:Features:Bob-O-Pedic%C2%AE%20Memory%20Foam\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Bob-O-Pedic\u00ae cushions<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>6.

Hanging one directly over a bar cart helps to define the space and bring the eye up, creating the illusion of more room. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Speaking of <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.mybobs.com\/furniture\/dining-room\/c\/bar-furniture?query=:Product%20Type:Bar%20Carts\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">bar carts<\/a>\u2014they\u2019re great places to stash cookbooks, mementos and even your morning coffee! And the best thing about bar carts\u2026 the wheels! You can easily move your cart around your space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>7.
