It is always better to try new things and have fun while choosing chairs and tables for your dining room. Ultimately, it comes down to how you want the furniture to look. If you’re stuck, go with your gut, and you’ll do great work as a designer. But there are a couple of simple rules to follow. The furniture shouldn’t match too much, nor should they be too different. People love patterns. Match certain pieces of your chairs and table, but not all. But beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. There is no right or wrong way to mix and match your furniture. Something that you don’t find attractive might look beautiful to another person.
