Hi all and Happy Labor Day! I haven't posted since July 1st - I really need to get it together.

My Dream Home: Dining Room

A couple of posts ago I created a mood board of my very own dream living room and I have to say it made me pretty darn happy seeing so many things I love in one space. When designing any space, especially residential, I think it's important to create a consistent flow throughout -- going from room to room and can tell the same person lives there no matter what room it is but is different in it's own way. As far as my design style goes, I love the boho chic, eclectic look -- but for me, there really is no one or even two design styles I stick to. I love to throw a little mid-century, rustic and coastal in as well -- so you can say I have pretty versatile taste. Check out my post on my dream living space so you can see how it just works with this dining room. I'm pretty much in love. Links to all items below :) 

rug // striped edge flatweave rug // anthropologie

captain chairs // tucker chair - black // serena & lily

side chairs // john vogel chairs // west elm

Did you fall in love with any of these items like I did? It's okay, I can share ;) Stay tuned for a post on my dream bedroom coming soon. Follow me on instagram @laurenmaiorana for even more design, art and DIY inspiration!

Fall In Love With Your Table Setting

Happy October everyone! I haven't posted in so long mainly because I've been home in New York visiting family. We even had our own early Thanksgiving dinner because some of us live so far away and it will be a while until we are all together again. It made me think of how I am going to set up my own table for Thanksgiving. There are so many options when it comes to decorating your dining table for the fall - where do you even start? Centerpieces, dinnerware, &  tablecloths, oh my! Here's some inspiration to help you decide this autumn season just in time for Thanksgiving!

I love how simple yet festive this setting is. I especially love

the clean, fresh look of the white dinnerware and napkins but you

could also use other colors - rich reds, blues or greens. Mini pumpkins for 

a centerpiece just works and tying up the napkin with hemp string 

and adding wheat completes this fall look.

This table has a rustic look with the stump candle holders

and wood chargers (can be a great DIY, too!). Mini pumpkins

 in different sizes and rich colors is the cherry on top

for this fall inspired table setting.

This setting has a touch of fall with the feather and lavender 

tied in hemp with the word "gather". This is something that

you can do to instantly create a fall table setting without

having to buy all new dinnerware and centerpieces.

These settings and centerpieces look gorgeous on this rustic

table but would look stunning on a more formal table

as well. No pumpkins are needed to make you think of fall - 

the wheat in a vase, hemp table runner, fresh flowers and elegant

candles definitely has your mind thinking of fall family gatherings.

I love the vibrant, autumn-colored flowers against the

teal table runner (and the fact that it's ikat print). This table 

setting can be used year round - just switch out the 

flowers to go with any holiday or special occasion.

I really love all of these photos - they are all such beautiful settings.

It definitely makes me excited to decorate my table for Thanksgiving coming up

where it will be my boyfriends and I's first Thanksgiving dinner together in our own

home! I wish you all happy fall table setting :)
