Best Gift Ideas For Entertainers: Dining Chairs

If you enjoy throwing dinner parties, impress your guests with a set of designer dining chairs. SCS offers an excellent range of stylish dining chairs to suit all budgets and dining arrangements. But if you really want to dine in style, go for a high-backed leather Bretagne Wave chair or the uber-elegant Everest Dining Chair. Alternatively, if you have the budget, make a statement with the sophisticated solid marble Adelaide dining chair. Those curves are a conversation starter.

Rugs

When you have a beautifully tiled, laminated or hard wooden floor, it might seem counter-intuitive to cover it up with a rug. On the contrary, a rug creates a focal point and adds to the overall look and feel of the room. Rugs add warmth and comfort to hard, cold floors like this, but they also have additional benefits such as helping to reduce allergens in the home and absorb sound from TV’s, computers, speaker phones and the patter of tiny feet.

Lamp Tables

Lighting effects from lamps add ambience to a room, but they also create a stylish focal point. But only when they have displayed alone rather than amongst a cluster of ornaments. If you have invested in a stylish lamp, it should take pride of place in your living room or bedroom with its very own lamp table – which also comes in a wide variety of tasteful designs. Choose from curved glass, solid marble, stainless steel, driftwood or a selection of premium woods, some of which also have a drawer for convenient storage.

Leather Sofas

Leather sofas may cost slightly more than the average fabric three-piece, but they are made from superior materials and last substantially longer. Furthermore, they provide extra comfort and add an air of sophistication to your living room. Choose from a wide range of styles and designs including 2-seaters, 3-seaters and corner sofas, many of which feature a power recliner for added comfort when you need to relax or soothe aches and pains. Not only that, you even have the opportunity to take advantage of star buys, discounts and free credit offers.

Laminate Flooring

Laminate flooring is the modern revival of hardwood floors and provides homeowners with an alternative option to carpets – especially if you want a floor that is easy to wipe up spills without causing any hassle or damage. Today’s laminate floors are extremely versatile and the click-in slats are not only easy to install but can be laid over existing floorboards or previous laminates should you decide you want a change. And with so many designs and woods to choose from, upgrading your laminate flooring to walnut, oak or Maxi play engineered woods is a viable option. When you’re ready to make upgrades to your home or give your rooms more vigour with stylish furniture, check out the amazing deals we have with SCS. Our discount vouchers save you some money on a wide variety of products so you can keep the cash back in your wallet.

Things To Consider When Buying A Dining Table

Dining tables come in so many sophisticated designs and materials, they are the centrepiece of the dining room or kitchen. But you can’t choose a dining table on looks alone. A dining table and chairs have to attach itself to your décor and serve the function it is designed to do in the way you want it to. You don’t want to invest in a dining table that is too big or too small. Here’s what you need to know.

Size is important

The most important consideration to make when buying a dining table is the size. You have to get the fit right otherwise you risk leaving yourself with a shortage of space to manoeuvre, or slightly too much space that the room looks awkward. Your dining area should have a walkway space that makes it comfortable for climbing in and out of your chairs, and for serving should you happen to be throwing a dinner party or attending to young children. Leave a good 36 to 48-inches around the perimeter.

The size of your dining space will obviously limit the number of choices you have to buy a table and chairs. But this can actually work in your favour. You may not have a clear idea of what style you want and indecision not only wastes your time, it can hamper you from making a decision you are completely happy with.

But don’t let space utterly dictate your purchasing decision – especially if you have a small dining room. If you buy a dining table that is too small, it can also make the room appear small. The deception of dimensions means a larger dining table makes the room appear bigger as well. Providing you leave sufficient walkway space, a slightly larger dining table will amplify your dining room.

Number of people dining

When you’re investing a reasonable amount of money on a dining table, you want to be able to admire its appearance. Wood is a popular choice, but a sleek glass and stainless steel combo ooze sophistication. If you have the budget, marble is an impressive choice.Seat styles are also important. If you enjoy hosting dinner parties and prone to lingering round the table for an after dinner debate, high-backed leather seats are a good choice. If you have young children that need help climbing into their seat, wooden-backed chairs with seats to grab hold on to gives them a firmer grip.

Square and circular tables work well in square rooms and smaller rooms, whilst oval and rectangular tables are more appropriate for long rooms. Also, consider the number of legs as they impact the number of people you can seat.

For larger families and entertaining, a pedestal design works better than corner legs as you can usually squeeze in an extra two spaces and still have enough elbow space.
