We’re making over the dining room!! Last week, I flipped a thrifted dining table off FB Marketplace and this week, we are going to complete the room. The biggest challenge in this area is the fact that it is an open floor plan, so I need to make this area stand on its own. So there are a couple of DIYs I want to do to make that happen, including a wavy console table, a quick sideboard leg swap, and a renter-friendly no-hardwire lighting hack!

Love the console table, but something’s tells me over time you’re probably going to need a center leg. Those whole place is coming together beautifully.

[@31sahana]

Yes I'm worried it will sag.

[@knittedfingers4869]

Yeah I came on here to comment on the same thing 😂 make sure you don’t put anything heavy in the centre as that table is way too long without that extra support in the middle. Other than that, looks really nice 😊

[@lornawood3260]

I wondered that myself. Some stabilization is needed, I feel. It’s lovely, though, with the scalloped trim!

[@NCHCLW]

It will definitely sag. Also, a single 1x8 does not make a table (of that length)(and yes, I understand what a console table is) It requires support.

[@TheGenflute]

All she needs to do is put a brace across the bottom.

[@PreciousMe]

Love everything. Super cozy and inviting. I would put additional legs in the center of the sofa table for support. Hugs

[@mapleleaf0]

Agree - so cozy and welcoming! I also agree about two legs in the center of the sofa table. There's something about the dimensions that makes it seem off without them. I think it would be more sturdy and less likely to flex, but mostly it would *look* more sturdy. It's super cute!

[@suzzannelemarier3350]

I agree with adding at least one more set of legs in the middle as added weight may make it sag in the middle

[@staceylynch9751]

Came here to say the same. That table absolutely needs a center support.

[@1966Kibbles]

Great Job Tina! One suggestion...because the length of the table, I would suggest adding a center leg to help support it the top. Otherwise, you risk having it warped. Learn this the hard way!

[@linjaysha]

I was about to say exactly this! The table came out great but it's going to bend in the middle without some additional support.

[@catherinerall6434]

I like the idea as well but worried it is too narrow and might topple over.

[@janetboette7013]

Love the sofa table! I worry about it possibly needing a center support? Hate to see it bow over time.

[@judelopez8564]

Gorgeous! Add embedded usb ports to the table behind sofa. Life changing.

[@heylo757]

Going at a slower pace but still taking those steps to change is useful advice for DIYs and life. 😅 Love your furniture builds! KEKE PALMER HAS SLEEP CONTENT? This is for me, bay-beeee. Ty Audible!

[@LittleBit123]

Love the style of this space!! I think you’ll probably need a middle leg in your sofa table but it’s so cute with the squiggles!

[@Sooz1234]

My favorite thus far- updated but not too TikTok trendy. Love your design and build skills.

[@Stephanie-lg1cm]

It’s all beginning to look like a home now, lovely. As others have said, a pair of legs in the middle of the console table will be needed because of the span and for stability.

[@KuvYogSala]

Tina! I love the console table, vintage legs, and mirror. Everything went so well together. I'm going to make my console table thanks to you.

[@tinalemac]

Yassss! I know it’s gonna come out incredible 😍

[@sandieedward993]

Well Done Looks Really Good 👍

[@velvettedelaney]

Looks beautiful. Love how it all came together. Def add a center leg to the sofa table, tho! A guest will lean on it and crack it, not knowing they shouldn’t ❤

[@Princessmom9]

Looks like something from a magazine. I love it.

[@laurielaframboise9311]

So beautiful. Maybe paint that stair wall with the sideboard on it a color from your rug.. blue or green

[@carolepeck3829]

How to cozy up a cavernous space. Good job❤

[@tinalemac]

Thank you!! 💛💛

[@aroha9090]

Absolutely gorgeous, so restful feeling! I wasn't sure about the wave console table until you finished & now I'm kicking myself for ever doubting you! If you're ever in NZ pop in, we could REALLY use your interior decorating expertise!! 💛

[@darawilson4101]

Stunning as always tina. Your one of my favorite diyers!

[@IMOO1896]

The console table is perfect!

[@vickytimmerman1365]

My sideboard was originally a bedroom dresser so it's quite large with a room. It houses all of my grandmother's China and I'll tell all my linens for the dining room which consists of every color runner you could think of for the table

[@moanabrown9194]

Love the dining room and the mix of wood tones.

[@Patti-1962]

Oh my goodness, this room is beautiful. It has so much style and looks very expensive. And with the Japandi decor items bring so much life to the space. Now I want to put one of the paper lights in my granddaughter's room. She will be 3 in a few weeks, and our gift to her is all the items needed to make her a "big girl" room. I found some smaller Asian lanterns with tassels on them, to hang in a group. I'm sure that that idea came from you as well!!

[@jennynguyen898]

I love the overall look, Tina! I have always struggled to pull an open living room, dining room, and kitchen concept together in a rental-friendly environment. 🥰

[@mommygarcia9137]

Looks beautiful as always ! You have a gift for creating beautiful pieces !! Yay can’t wait for the Christmas decor !! 🎄🎄

[@tinalemac]

Awww. Thank you so much 💛

[@peggymohr7899]

Love the table for behind the couch,however every thing you make is beautiful always. You are great.

[@TinaandBrian]

So lucky to have you transform our home 🫶 when we first moved in to now is incredible! Most talented person I know ❤

[@mapleleaf0]

Yes, what a transformation! You two are a good team.

[@kiatanyadurrett3038]

I love it all. You divided the space perfectly.

[@hnycreek]

It's so warm and cozy but still modern!!! Well done Tina!

[@brendasnow8255]

It all looks so good!

[@mizzlopez5660]

[@frappalina]

wow it turned out so good!

[@whatlolawants2167]

❤❤❤Tina, it's so Stunning!!! I love everything! That tea set is so pretty and it's perfect there with the mirror. I really like the screen idea but I'm not sure where you would put it and my first thought was that you are an artist, why don't you paint one, my second thought was that hopefully you will find one on marketplace because finding one in Japan and getting it back will be very expensive. Also beautiful.

[@evastrassburger122]

It looks so pretty!! Well done ❤

[@pressjidge]

LOVE the way the dining room turned out! That console table & pendant light are making me want to re-do my own dining room!

[@melissaroth5958]

It looks so pretty

[@herFLYness79]

I love the flow of this space. The sofa table is just too cute. I love the scalloped, curvy, wavy (lol) edges. add personality without looking juvenile, if that makes sense. And incorporating pieces that celebrate your culture is always the icing on the cake for me.

[@niecybaby1960]

You did a great job. Keep um coming.
