A rustic dining room is a staple of the farmhouse style. Far from looking old and outdated, a dining room with rustic touches is designed to be warm and inviting. Rustic furniture or décor transforms any dining room into a causal space that is perfect for great conversations with family and friends. To start your shabby chic dining room, think about incorporating textures like reclaimed wood, linen fabrics, or distressed finishes wherever you can.
Antique designs also go hand-in-hand with distressed dining rooms. Consider building out your room with two-toned dining sets, antique hutches, and vintage wall signs. For a modern rustic aesthetic, finish the room with contemporary chandeliers, velvet dining chairs, or chic gallery walls. Try out the following rustic dining room ideas to give your home a beautifully faded elegance.
