Lovely space, I imagine at this stage you have got sorted with the table and chairs... what did you choose. My flooring looks like yours a bit... ceramic tile made to look like wood... I'm thinking of a wooden table and chairs for mine... currently dark grey but I think ash or light oak would warm the space nicely

Hello, you made a lovely job painting your kitchen, if you have an old table and chairs, what about painting those? do the legs of the table & chairs white & the tops grey. Or alternatively just do the table and get new chairs if the budget stretches? there are very reasonable chair covers too on www.wish.com that cover old chairs and come in lots of funky bright colours that would be perfect too.

I've got A lovely caligaris dining table that I bought for my previous much smaller dining room and don't want to part with it. It extends to double length but it's quite narrow. Any ideas for how to source a good topper to make it wider/proportionate? It will be our main surface for eating, so needs to be stylish yet durable

I don't even know what kind of timber it is. I just need a plank of the same material and then I can get on with it (says he!)
