PR HAUL & We FINALLY Got A Dining Table 🥹

[@eileenboffo6300]

Don't worry about the pieces appearing to be different shades, that's the beauty of natural wood. A tip is to make sure you use the table extensions as they will be completely different colours if stored away! A rug will tie it all together. Yes to the frame tv on the lime wash. Enjoy the beautiful furniture!

[@allanaramaa]

Ohhh good tip on the extenders!!! Thank you so much 💕

[@Holbol124]

Some sconces or lamps in the arch on either side of the TV may help with the color as well, casting light from above like the table is naturally getting. But I do agree that it really doesn't matter. Pretty wood is pretty wood. I like when everything isn't too matchy matchy!

[@brandysummers5185]

I came here to say exactly this! 😊

[@heatherstrittmatter4201]

Wait for the rug - it will look great!

[@juliebeck3796]

Totally agree with everything you said! I love the natural wood and slight variations just add to its beauty. I think a rug will be the perfect addition. Also, love the chairs with the table 💕

[@melja7787]

Honestly I think it looks amazing with the "different" "not so different" color of the cabinet. I love it. It gives the room more dimension. ❤️

[@NatashaCobby]

The table looks SO good - I actually prefer that the wood looks different, keeps it from looking too matchy matchy 👌🏼 also the iron man mask bit had me cracking up - very ‘I need my tools!!’ a la Dennis from always sunny

[@allanaramaa]

😂😂💕💕

[@TheCOCSTER]

Interior designer here! The limewash would be beautiful and add some much needed texture and dimension to the flat white walls. A picture light over the frame TV could also be a nice touch to make that archway feel like more of a cohesive and intentional composition. I would also suggest a neutral/simple table runner to give more coziness to the dining area if you’re feeling iffy about an area rug. Beautiful space though! 🤗

[@allanaramaa]

Thank you so much!! 🙏🏻🙏🏻💕💕

[@MorganHowell-Kastner]

I would love a “sunscreen showdown” type video! Sunscreens especially for the face are so tricky and I’ve been really interested in all of these. Also the clipped up hair with the oversized shirt and chunky gold hoops is just my favorite look! So comfy but so cute Just got to the table portion of the video, i absolutely love it, the side board looking darker but in the same tone gives the room so much more dimension it looks awesome together

[@allanaramaa]

Thank you so so much Morgan 💕 noted on the sunscreen showdown!!

[@sarahbroad9388]

don’t stress about the woods looking like they’re different tones! they’re beautiful and that’s what’s so nice about natural wood!! they look great

[@TallMChannel]

This low-bun hairstyle looks so great on you. Also: the table is so pretty. Natural wood is just the best, even when it is of different colour. It has so much character

[@lorainek.2225]

I actually love that the wood is a different color! More dimension and personality to the room. It all looks beautiful!

[@pepermuntkermit]

For the rug: Try a carpet that you would lay for flooring. Stores can normally cut them to your individual size and add edging. They are less expensive and easier to clean ;)

[@allanaramaa]

Brilliant 🙏🏻 thank you!

[@Julia-vk2og]

This! We did this for all our rooms and came of way cheaper. A 3x5 m leftover carpet cost us 300 € (330 USD) instead of over 1000 if bought as a „real“ rug.

[@Rengels98]

The fact that the woods appear to be different just adds depth to your space. With a rug and the frame tv on the wall, it'll look great.

[@karenladd8907]

Dining table And sideboard are stunning and I love how it looks a different tone

[@allanaramaa]

Thank you 🥹💕

[@HannahBMann]

The editing on the niche drop-ins is too fun! Glad you're finally getting a table. I hope it makes your house feel more like home!

[@rachelbreck7766]

definitely leave the table and cabinet! there’s a slight difference in colour appearance but the difference is subtle and stunning! it breaks up the room preventing them from blending in together too much! love them both so much

[@yulissasalazar8286]

Yes! Really love the lime wash idea!😍 It would definitely add an eye catching feature to that room.

[@TheVernons23]

I love the idea that Dejan came up with. A light wash just to break it up would be beautiful. So excited the table is finally there. It looks so so so good!!

[@nenawells3916]

The furniture is stunning and it looks perfect in your dining room. It's a very slight shade difference but I love that. Look at it as being more interesting to the eye rather than an irritation. If you asked the opinion of your family and friends, i'm sure they wouldn't really see much of a difference between the two pieces of furniture. It's a yes to the TV idea. For inspiration for your dining room, I'd look on Pinterest.

[@kellystevens-comstock2841]

Oh I love the table and sideboard. The difference in colors is perfect. I love them both.

[@Charlee245]

I like the slight variation in wood tone between the table and cabinet. It’s more chic. Plus all wood varies so matching between light, shadow and wood variation is nearly impossible. Looks great!

[@krisgrandinetti5797]

The cabinet and table look amazing!!! Doesn’t matter if color looks slightly different. It all looks beautiful together with the black accents! 😍💗

[@lynnmerrill6793]

I love the new furniture! Beautiful. If im honest, you should look into outdoor rugs for indoors.! Sounds odd, but they are generally a lot bigger and more affordable. Love you guys! xxoo

[@olgacmon]

The table is beautiful and perfect for the chairs! Very happy for you! Enjoy!...The rug will tie the room together. 👏👏👏

[@CaitlinCooreman]

Hurray!! A table at last! Looks so amazing, honestly, and with the wood floors throughout I think the slightly different tones of the cabinet and table due to shadows adds a nice nuance and will shift throughout the day and times of year, I bet. I think the frame TV will be perfect!! And the limewash, could be nice but also not necessary, but rugs!! I agree: so expensive but definitely a worthwhile investment!

[@kanzul4256]

the hall looks so aesthetic! i honestly just love the whole vibe of your house, it's cozy and cute 👌🏻

[@lynram8820]

Definitely felt your excitement on finally getting the table! I actually love the different shade of natural wood...more character and dimension. Looking forward to see more decor updates and sunscreens reviews! Enjoy your meals at the table!

[@bella15710]

I like the wood appearing different shades!!! it adds dimension

[@hazeleyeartist]

LOVE the table!!!! It looks like it belongs there. I wouldn't worry about the cabinet not looking the same color. You don't have to have everything match too much. It looks and feels more curated and organic that way. As for the nook color, I like it cream as it is.

[@kelly.smith22]

Natural wood 👌🏼 honestly doesn’t matter that pieces can appear slightly different shades as it makes each piece unique and beautiful 🤩

[@lanacaramelbanana]

As someone that lives in Australia, can vouch that Ultra Violette is the BEST sunscreen! 🌞 Queen Screen is amazing 💖

[@allanaramaa]

Ahhhh yay I can’t wait to try!! 💕💕

[@inezbye7521]

Fellow Aussie here to say the same!!! The serum is life changing for everyday face wear

[@parkedawn]

Lan, the dining room looks LOVELY. If you still want an element of the concrete you mentioned, you could get a sculptural piece for the table, or three concrete planters with greenery. Please keep the furniture as is, it looks wonderful. 💛 Thank you for sharing your unboxing in your study! I see some items I'd like. Yay for new makeup, skincare and home items! 🎉🎉🎉

[@Sinnedracha]

I think the lime wash would look super pretty, really make it stand out as a separate space. And I think the wood colors are okay even if they look a little different in the lighting, it’s the same color in the light so it’s complimentary and doesn’t look overly matchy matchy! The framed TV will look really nice Edit: I’d love to see a sunscreen showdown!!

[@dianainbeauty]

I love the new setup, I also just love the neutral tones 😍 I can understand that there is the added pressure of showing your house to the "world" and having so many opinions about it but (in my humble opinion 😅) it looks so good, so organic ?? (idk if that's a good way to describe it but in my mind it makes sense xD) and the idea for the arch is also lovely but take your time to see how everything looks in different lightings (day/night) and just decide if you guys like it or not!

[@ashleyseveska3389]

Omg I love how the table turned out!!! Worth the wait!!!!! I like how it’s a little different in color!!!

[@camilla9301]

The wood looking different - I think it`s sooo pretty❤️

[@p0keDAmo0seyXD]

I LOVE the idea of a lime wash. I am not a fan of all-white houses but for a bit of visual interest, texture, and to highlight that beautiful arch in your style it would be perfect!

[@ruthwilliamson796]

A rug would complete the look. Also love the lime wash and tv idea for the alcove! I love the slight difference in shade, makes the pieces more unique.

[@kitsombke5644]

Deffo keep both! Maybe a red rug would looks stunning or some red or splashes of pink artwork on the walls

[@jennifert9402]

I kind of like the way the light plays with the coloring of the furniture! Definitely seems frustrating but I think they look so good!

[@starluvscents]

I think the furniture pieces look great!! I also like the idea of the frame TV … maybe with a fancy black art lamp above it to give it character and light in the arch when the tv is not in use. I would also add a decorative tray on the cabinet and add some beautiful glasses and bar accessories 💖

[@jacquelyne8542]

Love, love love! Great choices, timeless and classic ❤️

[@meganward192]

The two shades of wood look amazing. It gives it more depth. They are the same undertones so they go beautifully together. It's gorgeous. I like the creamy white walls. I'd say mirror, art or the frame tv like you were saying will make it beautiful. Maybe some wall sconces too. Gorgeous gorgeous. You underestimate your interior design skills :) it's all about what works for you!

[@nancyfielden270]

Yes to an art tv in the alcove with a large vase of branches will look so chic. 👌

[@bryonyhershfeld8464]

Don’t obsess over the table and console looking like they are different shades! It gives the room dimension and it looks GREAT to me…. Personally, I’d be thrilled that they don’t look so matchy matchy! Also love the lime wash idea - I’ll say it again: Dimension 🙂 I think the tv in the dining room is a bit odd lol but I get the idea/purpose. At least it’d be a Frame! Lastly a rug will do wonders! Can’t wait to see continued house updates!💛

[@4EVERinstyle]

Love the two tones together!! I feel like if it matched perfectly you wouldn’t like it. Definitely do lime wash. Something I would recommend for the table top decor is a preserved moss bowl/arrangement! I own a floral Boutique and they are our best sellers and make the house look fresh and green and minimal

[@allanaramaa]

Ahhh that’s so amazing what a dream job! 😍😍 I love the idea of a moss bowl. Green everywhere pls 🙏🏻💚

[@zaraskibola8807]

You are so cute for being so excited about the table, the happiness you transmit really feels so genuine. I'm so happy for you and Dejan xx

[@allanaramaa]

Thank you 😭💕💕 we have been so excited about this table omg haha

[@manehbag732]

Looks great!!!! Yes on limestone. It'll bring interest and texture vertically

[@keelyfox3706]

I am from Australia and Ultra Violette is such a big fave here! It has become a staple in my everyday routine and I can't live without it! I hope you love it as much as we do xx

[@laurencoskerie]

I had a thought about brightening up the cabinet so it appears a little closer to the shade of the table. Add some wall sconces or overhead lighting into the archway so you get light shining directly onto that area. Also use the other side of the cabinet with shelves for storing glassware like whiskey glasses, cocktail glasses, champagne flutes, a cocktail shaker, bottle opener etc. So exciting!!

[@kristinhardin8730]

❤️ LOVE❤️ the table!!! Ruggable! Washable rugs are amazing. And don’t paint it/get rid of the side piece! Get some lighting in that alcove that can work when you don’t have the future tv on!! It would look so sophisticated with lighting.

[@melissathirteen]

The cabinet looks great with the table! I love all the wood tones with the black. Looks beautiful! Congrats on finally having your table!

[@nicoleweber3396]

I highly recommend Flor carpet tiles for three reasons…1st, they are easy to clean in case you get any spill. 2nd, you can customize the size. And 3rd, they are a great sustainable brand! Lastly, they have beautiful designs.

[@alyssamoss1214]

The cabinet looks GREAT! The colour may seem a bit different but they compliment each other and go together! Do not paint it, it’s gorgeous!!

[@allanaramaa]

Noted, thank you 🥹🥹💕💕

[@summergirl3671]

I agree do not paint it. I’m sure at night they look the same. Lighting is crazy. It can even make wall colours look different.

[@samanthaduka6590]

Loloi rugs 100%. They are so soft and clean incredibly easy. I have them in every room of my house.

[@oliviahastie]

YES to the sunscreen lineup test in a video!! 🙏🏼 Pls help us figure out what to buy, there are so many new launches every single day 😅

[@allanaramaa]

And especially sunscreens omg ma’am I cannot keep up with these! 🥲😂

[@a_tots]

So happy that the table is hereeee! Actually, limewash is a great idea, it will bring more focus and depth to the arch, but also deliver the naturals vibes you originally intended! Not sure about the tv, but those with artwork options are so cute and if you feel you really need it, go for it! Here’s another idea- it would be cute to have some of the bar trinket decorations like vintage glasses and such on the cupboard, it’s always fun to see that in the bar area. 🤍🤍

[@allanaramaa]

Ahhh yes to the vintage trinkets always 🙏🏻 I’m going to be spending many hours on Pinterest I think 😆

[@a_tots]

@@allanaramaa yes yess! Can’t wait to see it then! But also I think you could check Alexandra Gater and Lonefox for some inspo ✨✨

[@ronni7167]

Love the dining room. The table is gorgeous. For the rugs you can look into carpet remnants or have them cut. So excited for you. 🥰🥰

[@sjkdhjkdh]

I think you should keep the cabinet! it goes really well regardless of the lighting!

[@dalmahartstein1676]

Love the space and the idea of the TV there. A rug will make it perfect! :)

[@meredithmacmillan8838]

I think limewash would look soo good!! Like a little texture difference to add interest to the space

[@workoutwithliz]

Over the cabinet, shelves displaying your bottles! Artwork you can drink and serve to your guests. 🎉

[@pamelamejiadiaz6998]

It looks so good don't worry about the shade not looking the same it works 🤩

[@lesliecorbus1852]

Love love love! Maybe also consider a statement pendant light over the table to pull it all together.

[@softballa238]

I love it!!! So exciting when your house starts to feel like a home 😊❤️

[@kathrynburrell3324]

The table and sideboard looks SO GOOD! 😍 The tones of the wood look great, and as the light changes in the room and with the seasons you'll find delightful surprises in how it looks. You've done a great job furnishing your new home!

[@user-uk8mb7ur6f]

Congrats you guys the table and side board are stunning!!! I wouldn’t put a rug in the dining room it will end up looking dirty. Your floors are beautiful, don’t mind the difference in the tones of the wood, it’s so minor perhaps adding in the frame tv will help with additional light. Or you could add some type of lighting into the space. The table is my fav piece of furniture thus far in your home. I’m your front room (Study) I love built in shelves, try turning the books on their side, and adding a small vase on top of the books, or a interesting piece on top of the books. Love that front room with all the natural light!!! Enjoy your new home guys!! Can’t wait to see more!! Pottery Barn has some stunning vases in different shapes and sizes would look amazing in your home. 💖

[@MandaClaireMaddy]

for the rug! you can go to a carpet store and have one cut to size and then a boarder added .. a much cheaper solution and the correct size

[@katiechasm]

love furniture content! companies that do wall-to-wall carpet can apparently make huge rugs (with a finished edge) for relatively cheap

[@sandramclean]

I love the the colour of the wood, its the same tone so you shouldn’t worry about the shaded sideboard, it all looks amazing!

[@shannonvanduren5703]

a black-framed pic/art on the wall on each side of the arch would look so nice and bring in more black, as well as breaking up the white on the wall :)

[@natashasamms7606]

LOVE the lime wash idea! like you said, it will help break up the white and add some texture ☺️

[@TheSnSalib]

The dining area looks beautiful! I think the lime wash will make it special for sure! But also those massive windows/glass doors 🤩

[@morganrohan8344]

Yes Ultra Violette! The absolute best spf - my go to is the Supreme Screen, amazing for dry skin, especially in warm weather

[@juelclyne7392]

Love the dining table. Can’t wait to see a GRWM trying out all the products received in PR 😍😍😍😍

[@tamarabrooking4555]

A rug under the table is a PITA! Have you considered putting 2 Nine foot runners on either side of it? One in front of the side board and another between the table and the kitchen? It would soften the space and dampen sound, but still be easy to clean.

[@jessicapulizzano4228]

I love different shades of wood together

[@CassandraMichelle6]

I love the set up! I think limewash would look beautiful, however I think if you did a black like wash or black in general it would look amazing with the black chairs. Then you could do a light frame tv! I have a black wall in my dining room and it’s such a statement!

[@gailsokol7832]

Beautiful table i think once the rug goes down and tvs up maybe a black lamp on the console table and maybe black pic frame the eye wont even notice the diff shades of wood, matchy matchy does'nt always looks good. The chairs , the table so lovely. Maybe also a big plant in the corner some green would look lovely.

[@rawamy]

I really did like the mock up with the wash… If the color really bothers you the only option maybe is a lamp on the sideboard or light somewhere

[@rahapeiravani2996]

Yay! You finally got your dining room table:) I saw photos on your story and it looks amazing! I hope you’ll enjoy many meals there ♥️

[@nikkidisano]

Don’t worry about the color! Plus you’ll mostly entertain in the evenings so the sun won’t be a factor, it will all look the same!

[@bengikarabolat]

I wouldn't obsess over the "illusion" of different shades of wood. It just looks that way because of the direction of the light. Lime wash is a good idea but if you put a Samsung Frame tv you can always switch it on to art mode so it will give a dimension to the white wall and you'll have the chance to switch paintings anytime you want.We did it in our living room as well. For the rug, I know you are going with the beige-creme theme but a washed-out red persian rug would be chef's kiss. For larger rugs, I'd definitely check Zara Home out. The have beautiful kilim-like rugs there. Hugs from Istanbul!

[@thefrazzledfreckle]

I don't think you need to worry about the illusion of the table and cabinet looking different. You can tell they are meant to go together and probably when the lighting in the room changes, it'll be different. They look great in the room and happy that it's finally coming together for you :) A rug and maybe a runner on the table will add some softness/texture that you might like.

[@sorrellwillis-dean6649]

You could do two rugs over lapping? You see the look in a few interior magazines so that could look nice and different- also helps with cost of getting a huge rug

[@bryngarrity5548]

for the TV, i just saw a youtube video where a couple mounted their frame on an easel stand! super creative. so now they can move their TV all around into different rooms /stored away in a closet if you don't want it out. over the bar, i would actually recommend shelves with stem holders underneath. you can store your fancy stemware out. i collect colored vintage glasses so i love having them visible.

[@samanthabasson2212]

When we renovated our open area concept kitchen/dining room, I loved how we included a TV. It's great to watch while you meal prep or for casual eating at the island. I also like following along recipes on KZbin. Highly recommend if you can make it match your look. Plus, I LOVE how Dejan can do the photoshop for decor idea's, very cool.

[@Morganlorie]

I love the how the wall is. I would be putting a black and white piece of art above the side bord but that’s just me. love it so happy for you

[@abbybratton2979]

Congrats on this beautiful table!! LOVE the lime wash idea, definitely a good way to spice up the white walls, and one coat would be subtle enough to be classy and timeless. Love the idea of hanging/leaning a gold mirror there. Or if there is a way to make the frame tv a mirror? The black accents in the decor is a lovely idea, so fresh and modern to balance out the warmth of the wood!

[@a_tots]

Oh yeah I was also thinking about a mirror there!

[@stephaniek7492]

Definitely get what you are saying with the woods looking different because the contrast isn't great enough to make it look intentional. It is a really nice sideboard, but would recommend finding an alternative. Also, a new piece would add another level of visual interest in your space and when you bring in a rug, it will tie it back in with the table.

[@Vanessaguillen_]

Your excitement for the dinning room table coming in radiates off the screen and I’m here for it 🤣💕

[@carlie9584]

I love that they appear mis-matched! It also gives more freedom for the future if you decide to incorporate more wood without the worry of matching it perfectly. It gives the space more dimension for sure

[@cocopop2181]

Hey just a tip on rugs! You can get any carpet made into a rug. Most carpet shops offer hemming services. So you measure the size you want choose the style and get it made. It’s way cheaper than a rugs. Am from Glasgow the rug size I needed were all costing £900 and I didn’t like them the carpet rug I got made was just under £150. Have a look and see what you think xxx

[@dawngibson9660]

Allana! You will love the table! We have the same one and It is a true workhorse and perfect for all the big group dinners! Looks beautiful with your chairs too! Enjoy!

[@irenezelaya7491]

Maybe paint the niche wall black to tie into the dining chairs and other hardware in your home. I think it will also help make any decor you place there automatically pop

[@nourmezher4129]

Gris Dior will instantly become a fave perfume!! Its been my only perfume since 2014!!! Congrats on the table 😻😻😻

[@raquelclh]

For your cabinet, you can get more out of it by storing your wine bottles horizontaly. That's actually how you are supposed to store them anyway as the cork needs to stay moist in order to avoid the oxidation of the wines ☺

[@ElizabethFrances31]

Love, love, love Ultra Violette! It's my go to, the only sunscreen I use. I use the queen screen and it's so good under makeup, I don't need to use a primer with it. I'm in Aus so the sun is real hot and it doesn't let me down. Hope you enjoy it too!

[@nehagoswami2019]

I think the color difference is beautiful!!! U don’t want it to be too matchy matchy!!. TV yess but line wash… nooo!!! I love the wall color. Table is truly beautiful:). Enjoy!! Chairs go soo well with it. Love the arch. Rug will make a huge difference ❤️

[@joanneblakely2498]

Allana you are simply adorable when you get excited!!!!

[@nancyfielden270]

Looks beautiful. Don't need the lime wash. Don't worry about the color difference that you see. It's in the same color family so it works beautifully and actually better because it's not matchy matchy.

[@acampbell94]

The difference is fine! Once you get a rug it’ll make it all come together. Having the wooden floor makes the tone difference more noticeable!

[@abigailward6589]

Get a rug on Ruggable!! Highly recommend. They’re also 100% washable, so would be helpful under a table you are eating on. Love it! Looks fabulous 😍
