Do you have big, family dinners? Do you like to entertain? If so, you probably spend a lot of time around the table in the dining room. The dining room is a place for gathering, feasting, socializing, and making memories. Although you’re probably focused on the food and company, you want the room you’re spending time in to feel inviting and comfortable.

If your dining room is outdated, too small, or run down, you probably don’t like to bring guests in the room. This room, like all the other rooms in the house, is an extension of you, so it should be styled and designed as you’d like it. Sure, it may not be as frequently used as the kitchen, living room, or bathrooms, but it is a room that has a purpose, and it should not be forgotten.

Our renovation team at Sunset Builders & Maintenance wanted to share with you some ideas on how you can make your dining room a stand-out room that reflects your tastes, size needs, budget, and style.

• Install molding on the ceiling and walls for texture and design elements.
• Paint an accent-color wall to add some drama or fun to the room.
• Install a sound system in the room so you and your guests can listen to music while you eat and talk.
• Build a window seat for adding seating and a unique design element to the room.
• Install built-in shelves and wine racks into the walls for storage and to save space in the room.
• Design rounded archways to enter the room for a unique look.
• Remove doors to give the room a more open, spacious look.
• Install a chandelier over the table that reflects your style whether it’s modern, vintage, glitzy, minimalistic, or country.
• Install a large mirror in the room to make the room appear larger.
• Build a closet in the room to store linens, silverware, tableware, glassware, etc.
• Install a dimmer to control the light in the room – different events require different light settings.

Have a spare room in your home? Has it become a junk room? Is it empty? Are you at a loss as to what to use it for? Don’t waste the space! Get creative! This extra room is a gold mine! There is so much you can do with a spare room.

At Sunset Builders & Maintenance, we specialize in home renovations. We can turn and old bedroom or spare space into something completely different – we can transform this room into anything you want it to be!

We wanted to share some renovation ideas with you to use for a spare home or space in your home:

• Have a lot of clothes and accessories? Turn a spare room into a large closet. Install shelving, racks, and poles to organize all your clothes. You’ll have so much space!
• Designate this room to be a kids-only play room. Install shelving for books and toys. Paint the walls with chalk paint, so the kids can draw on the wall without it being a problem!
• Design a library. Build book shelves into the walls and install reading lights. Bring in comfortable reading chairs. This will be a great place to relax!
• Create an arts and crafts room. Design cabinets and counter space for you to make all your art and store all your equipment and supplies.
• Design a game room. Install a TV into the wall. Install outlets and USB ports all around the room. Bring in a pool table, arcade games, video games, and more!
• Install a bar or butler’s pantry. In this room, you can store all your kitchen supplies and bar supplies and mix drinks and snacks, so you’re not in the way in other rooms of the home. If the space is big enough, you can have friends and family sit around for a cocktail specifically in this room.
• Turn the room into the laundry room. If the spare room is on the second floor, this will make doing laundry so much easier!

Have an empty, spare, sad-looking room? Change it up! The possibilities are endless with what you can do. At the end of the day, if you want to make it be another bedroom, we can help you renovate that too! We are here for all your home renovation needs.
