30 kitchen chairs image
Savannah
We are buying a beautiful home that I love. I'm just really confused on how we should decorate. The kitchen, dining room and living room are all open to each other. The kitchen cabinets are a medium-blonde wood, but my hubby and I would prefer a darker wood for our furniture. Would this look okay, or should we find something that matches the kitchen better? Also, should we try to match the wood pieces in our living room to the dining room set as well? Thank you so much for you help, any advice would be appreciated!
Answer
Besides the dark wood color, you need to find two major colors and one accent color. Also, know all the dimension for the space.
Let's start with living room, you will "anchor" the focual point first - it can be a TV, Fire Place or picture window. Then you will lay out your rooms first. And it is okay to place furniture at an angle (if your fire place is at a corner). If you want to do a sectional, make sure it not too big that invade the space for dining room. Also, the turns are correct. (sectional size varies a lot, must measure before purchase).
Sofa sets are more flexible in confirguation (and don't buy them all same color - mix in the pattren with your colors in, and leather/fabric) combination are great.
Dining room, measure the space based on the lighting above the dining area (most the time, there is a chandlier). Determine the space of dining area, and see how big a dining table you want to place there. Since most dining table can be expanded, so you need to do two sizes, one for the smallest it can be to look propertional to the space, and how big you want to expand to.
As for kitchen, if you have an island, two stools will solve the problem (measure the height of the counter - counter or bar height stools). If you really want to have a table there, do a small bar table (30"-36") or a bistro table, so it doesn't take lots space (sometimes, you will eat in front of the tv anyway).
All dark color furniture will go together. The worst thing you can do it try to match the cabinet or wood floor color.
Bring in the color by using a chair will colors, and find a solid color sofa, and using the pillows to bring the color over from dining room.
Mix glass top with the dark wood will give you a more open feeling. If you like the dark color, then you can use beige, green, brick etc.
The reason dark wood furniture so popular is because all colors go well with them.

How do I feed 30 people christmas dinner?
Ava
We are renting tables, chairs etc. but we only have a regular kitchen - one stove, one fridge. Any thoughts on how I am going to feed that many people a full turkey dinner?
