Renovating Your Dining Room Before the Holiday Season
As the holiday season rolls in, a dining room renovation can help you feel prepared for the crazy of the end of the year. Fortunately, your dining room renovation can be quick and affordable with a few high-end items. Updating your dining room window treatments, wall colors, decorative items, and lighting can quickly transform your space. At Barrington Draperies & Shutters, we can help you find the best dining room window treatments and home décor ideas near Barrington, IL.

Update the Dining Room Window Treatments
Your dining room can benefit from a few layers on the windows, so consider drapery over your favorite window treatment. They add a softness to your dining room and keep it warm, but infuse it with sophistication through color, pattern, texture, and fabrics. Since custom drapery adds layers to your windows, it boosts energy savings and light control.
Consider these stylish, energy-efficient window treatments for light control and privacy:
- Hunter Douglas Duette® Cellular Shades, which are available in over 150 colors and fabrics in 5 different opacities.
- Vignette® Roman Shades, which are available in 25 fabric and color combinations.
- Alustra® Woven Textures™ Roman Shades, made from 75 light-diffusing fabrics.
- Heritance® Wood Shutters, which are available in over 20 stain colors.
Dining Room Renovation: Add Fresh Paint (or Wallpaper)
A coat of paint is one of the fastest and least expensive ways to make a significant impact. Consider a paint color that pulls in color from another room or a piece of art for a cohesive look. Alternatively, use wallpaper on one or two walls to add color, design, and texture to draw the eye and add visual interest.
Change Up the Dining Room Lighting
Find a candelabra, chandelier, wall pendant, or ceiling pendant that matches your vision for your dining room. You can find a large amount of formal and informal lighting options, ranging from the classic to the modern styles. You can even make it the focal point if you find something you love.
Select Eye-Catching Dining Room Home Decor
Items rich with texture and color, like drapery, add visual interest to a room and give your eyes somewhere to land. In a dining room, where hard surfaces are a constant theme, soft window treatments, rugs, and flowers add a softness and a welcome contrast. Consider adding the following dining room home décor items:
- Candlesticks.
- Decorative bowls.
- Tie-backs for curtains or drapes.
- Area rugs.
- Paintings or other artwork.
- Greenery or flowers.
