Finally you all. FINALLY, I have the dining room done and ready to blog!! I think this has been my favorite transformation so far in our house, and it’s going to be hard to top! (to check out the before of it, check out this post with our 1 year update of the house, and what the dining room looked like before this update!) When I was deciding on a plan for this room I knew I didn’t want anything too bright or flashy because it is right off our front door, so I went with a modern, simple look. The end plan was a dining room with a dark ceiling, and some huge accent photos on the wall.

Dining Room with Dark Ceiling
Ceiling color: Behr Ink Black Wall color: Behr Du Jour
Engineering Prints
For the Wall photos I went with large Engineering Prints and wrote a quick post on them here!!
Details
For shelves over our little hutch I used Shelves from IKEA, and used piping pieces for the brackets. This was super simple, but if anyone needs a tutorial head over to this blog for a good how to. I painted mine gold, and love how they turned out.
I hung the shelves on the higher side so that top of the hutch cabinet would be more useful, but that also meant I lost out on one shelf, and needed taller decor. I ended up using a 2 tier fruit stand and filed it with glasses, bowls, and some decorative accents and LOVE how it turned out. It is so functional and cute!

Thanks for checking out our dining room, and be sure to check out the home decor section of my blog for more spaces in the house! I am so glad we went with the bold look and Sam let me take the risk on a dining room with a dark ceiling. Would you ever do the same? Be sure to leave me a comment with any questions!
Wow! It turned out amazing!!!! I love it! Come do mine next? Haha!
ARIN this room is so gorgeous. I love the large black and white photos of your cute kiddos, the light fixture, and of course that huge table *heart eyes.* Pinned! š <3
I am 100% obsessed with everything about this space!! It looks so good!!
Everything is so so perfect! Love every.single.detail. This is so unique and really unlike anything I’ve seen before. Great job sweet friend!
In love with this space!! Can you come do my house?! Seriously love your style!!
It is styled beyond perfectly!!! Absolutely love it.
Also, a while back I did engineer prints for my dining room and since we didn’t have any place local I had to have them shipped to me. There was a note inside that said something along the lines of “engineer prints aren’t supposed to be used for photos” or something kind of snarky like that. I was like oookay then.
hahah!! you should have photographed yours used as photos and sent it to them all hung and pretty
This is so beautiful! We are moving so his gives me major inspiration!
This turned out so lovely, digging the contrasting ceiling!
I love this space!
Thank you so much!
This is really gorgeous. Love the table! Pinned!
You have a great eye, I am obsessed with this table! Did you make it yourself?
It was custom made by a local company!
Girl, you can do no wrong! I love this room and everything else you do. What color is the paint on the walls?
Making my whole day!! The wall color is Behr Du Jour – its not actually a Behr color, I think its Valspar, but I just like Behr paint haha!
I love this space! Can I ask, where did you purchase the table?
We actually had ours custom built in St. Louis – I would be happy to get you the name if you are local!
Can you tell me what kind/make of dining room chairs those are?
Hi I actually got these from someone local who does custom furniture and didn’t get a set picked up.
So beautiful, was thinking painting, my kitchen hutch white with black knobs. Beautiful, when I seen white, I had to take a look.
Thank you so much!! I did the same to a hutch years ago and loved IT.
Where is your dining chandelier from? Looking to replace ours and I love it!
Thanks so much Brooke – it is from World Market but no longer carried there.
I love this dining room! Can I ask the type of gloss/finish you get for your paint?
Hi – Thank you so much! I did a flat finish.
LOVE LOVE LOVE! I painted my dining room the same colors. Iām still deciding on wall decor. Where did you get the upholstered chairs? I love them!
