How To Give Your Dining Room An Elegant And Luxurious Makeover | Sarah 101

[@judyshallstrom415]

The room is lovely. Such a nice change from the "farm house" look we being bombarded by in every ad, home tour and video where everything is some shade of white. These rooms from Abode are rooms that will last for generations. Sarah is the best. Tommy is too.

[@gildastigliano7936]

this room design and execution is exactly why you and your team are my ultimate favorite designers!!! this is wonderful

[@nevinssharp8477]

Truly the most gorgeous dining room I have ever seen

[@lorrilewis2178]

I need therapy for how obsessed I am with this dining room and everything in it. Also, I want that table!!!

Gorgeous wallpaper… it’s like art on its own

[@gailfox6791]

This is one of my most favorite rooms they redone, beautiful.

[@marieperkins7292]

I enjoyed this video because it began with a room that is so typical in so many homes!

[@traceye.6428]

I still love this room! I forget how long ago it was done, but it still looks as timeless and elegant today!

[@AbodeHomeChannel]

I totally agree!

Sarah Richardson is timeless. Solid, elegant, transcendent, radiant, intriguing. She never fails to delight me.

[@heathersmith8549]

Gorgeous room. This room is a Master Class in how to layer patterns and textures.

[@PH7018c]

Really beautiful.. So classic and modern at the same time.. Beautiful scheme of colors.. not pastel but not strong.. just perfect! Loved the back of chairs, it's a beautiful detail.. also the wainscoting in three tones.. A yellow ceiling with a chandelier.. Similar patterns: floral, geometric.. The table..💖

[@janweyant8902]

One of MY FAVORITE Tommy and Sarah rooms EVER!!

[@rebeccalowry9296]

The dining room is exquisite! I love your color palette and furniture choices as well as the art and accessories! Perfection!!

[@TheDriftwoodlover]

I love how talented designers bring together elegant details that set the room apart. The floor detail reminds me of inlay but at a bargain. I would have preferred the extra chairs in a softer color paint. That wallpaper and silk fabric are so wonderful.

[@TheFinnola]

All the tradespeople they use are so talented! The chair upholsters are artists!!

[@ginacrusco234]

The room makes a fabulous overall impression. Love: the silk chairback fabric; the porcelain wall sconces; the wallpaper. Not so crazy about: the pendant light (too wagonwheel-ish); the fabric juxtaposition on the chairs; the curtains (bland); the lack of a carpet.

[@janicechroman8305]

Wow and wow. This is totally beautifully designed. You’re the best .

[@ratnamukherjee9404]

The room is looking stunning! You have done it again! Transformed an ordinary room into a statement! Fabulous!👍👍

[@paulawray6042]

Sarah this is beautiful, you and Tommy work so well together. I so enjoy watching you two.

[@AbodeHomeChannel]

Glad you enjoy it!

[@delladearest2511]

From bland to GRAND❣️👏👏👏 awesome details and colors!

[@carolpipher4839]

OMG!! Seriously!!? This is stunningly chic, charming, amazing!! Just like my two favorite designers!! More Sarah & Tommy pleezee!!🤗 ♡ & more Xmas of them!🎄

[@carlyh6913]

This is so well done, my dream dining room. Just Stunning 😻

[@freedomofreligion3248]

This is a room episode I return to once a week. I had better borrow it in my home!

[@afolsom685]

Love the floral fabric on the chair backs. And the wallpaper , which is a suprise to me as most wallpaper is too busy for me. And I've always loved how you repurpose and save.

[@sherrycook9864]

My favorite dining room design! Lovely...

[@michellepereira2328]

Oh wow what a beautiful special room. The colors patterns and vintage finds came together perfectly.

[@AbodeHomeChannel]

Yes it does! Great Spot

[@skdoremi6666]

Daaaaaamn that a fancy dining room. Just beautiful. Love it with brilliant idea.

[@AbodeHomeChannel]

Right?!

[@angelabatterman6381]

Love this dining room super stunning

[@phyllisarrington7436]

What a lovely room you've created 👍

[@conniemckenzie7801]

Stunning!

[@rochellefreed1287]

Love it!

[@victorialove9104]

Gorgeous! I love it. I love everything about it.

[@timdaly3845]

Love the end result guys.

[@jackandpiper]

It turned out beautifully…I wonder if they drug the tv back in😂

[@TheDriftwoodlover]

Probably 🤣

[@sharoletyoung294]

BEAUTIFUL!!!

[@clairetremblay3023]

What a charming and gracious dinning room. Attractive & feminine! The kind of space you would like to take the afternoon tea with cucumber sandwiches, pastries, etc. (like at the Ritz :)

[@Tracylindilou]

Soooooo beautiful!

[@cindyanderson6139]

Couldn't help wondering why they didn't just keep the gold upholstery on the chairs since they played off the gold in the floral fabric they put on the back. That would have allowed them to keep the tufting, an expensive element, on the back of the chairs that go at the ends of the table. It looked to be in decent shape and could have been cleaned if needed. The floral fabric added to the back was lovely, but the geometric print on the front just didn't complement it at all. The original solid velvet would have showcased it much better.

[@jekku4688]

Absolutely gorgeous result, but almost wish it had even more bright color to get the appetite going, knowhatimean??? LOVE those chair backs with the pop of bright pink! Really pretty !

[@libbyhinson4676]

Gorgeous!

[@ashjarhussain2821]

Lovely ❤️

[@mapsman5513]

Well, apparently my comment with a link to Geeta's talk about what happened during and after the show was deleted. The budget was $16,000, but that included switching out the chairs to a more modern style and quieter fabric and returning the art and all of the props...everything on top of the table and sideboard.

[@denisepaul7274]

It’s a lovely room. Especially like the fabric for the dining chairs. Only change I’d make is the dark gray for the panel centers. I’d don’t know why. It’s like they look dirty or something…

[@nancydeshaies4558]

For many of us, budget is an issue, so we need to take elements of Sarah’s design process and adapt them. At the very beginning of the segment, there were white dishes stacked on the table. Perhaps a more modest rendition of the room could have saved the expense of all new china. While I feel like the wallpaper is lovely, it doesn’t seem to complement the bottom portion of the wall; using paint alone would have looked good, with less of a visual impact, that’s true, but also been a savings. I thought the artwork did not work at all and wouldn’t have included it. I enjoy the show for its inspiration, but I definitely can’t indulge in the cost.

[@debrawilson333]

Everything is very beautiful except the paint on the refinished hardwood floor. The floor should be enough grandeur with it's own grain and finish.

[@sharonhoerr6523]

Lovely, except that painting the side chairs bright yellow looks awful, at least to me.

[@OtikaOtikaOtika]

Candyland explosion ... more is not always more.

[@lorrilewis2178]

Some of us are soooooo bored with colorless houses. I think it's beautiful.

[@OtikaOtikaOtika]

I love colors and I really don't like bland interiors, but her mish-mash of colors and patterns is waaaaaaaay over the top for me.

[@lorrilewis2178]

@@OtikaOtikaOtika To each their own. I think the colors compliment each other beautifully. It's a happy room.

[@avagrego3195]

Very nice

[@monaboutet6863]

Gorgeous!!

[@freedomofreligion3248]

Sarah had a tailored 3/4 length jacket made of that delicious silk embroidered -- is that chinoiserie, or am I wrong? Whatever it is, it's so lovely, in a room, or on a lady.

[@bobbienordlow2991]

What was the budget for this beautiful room ?

[@thehungrygoldfish]

A dollar.

[@marilyn6905]

Much to love, but not everything. I personally would PASS on floral chair backs ... alittle too Bo-Ho for my taste! Would have considered a dark stained instead of white painted floor band.

[@arcy5798]

"everything on top of the table and sideboard." So that China that she thought was a steal at $350? Good thing because it wasn't worth $50. Would love to see that link go up again! This room was done well over 10 maybe 15 years ago so it's age is showing anyway...but painted ceilings and formal not likely a couple actually uses it nightly..for sure they are in the living room eating in front of that TV.

[@virginiazequeira6258]

The dining room is beautiful, except the floor motif. It looks cheap, it needed an area rug to complete the look.

[@rubberdc]

The before room with that dreadful cheap version of a dining room table is so bare , surely that couldnt be original? The new floor stain pops the grain of the wood spectacularly ! the end result is stunning .

[@merima333]

looks too busy, crowdy, not my taste ...I would like to hear at least once Sarah's assistant to have an opposite opinion than his boss, come on

[@skdoremi6666]

It's an amazing dining room and if they agree it's because they work together and have the same taste. She wouldn't be working with designer who prefer minimalistic decor cause she's ain't about it. It's also the house owners taste so ur rudeness is the image of ur house I bet,Not my taste.

[@mimosasforone2556]

Love it. But over the top feminine.

[@inegundersveen1487]

Great revamp - but are people really so useless they can't make a simple dining room work??

[@thehungrygoldfish]

It’s more that they don’t have the time and energy to so everything themselves do they get additional help. You can’t design and decorate a room by yourself in two days lol

[@judytaylor325]

Hummm? I don't see any budgeting going on.

[@thehungrygoldfish]

I mean, a budget can be anything. It doesn't have to be $5. That'll be a sad show, actually. $5 designs where you just work with what you have and get nothing except for fake flowers in cheap vases made in a sweat shop of dying starving overworked Chinese orphans. Fun.

[@agnesmooney4107]

This is a typical "designer" room. It doesn't reflect the client at all. Just Sarah showing off.... And Good Lord she spends without a backward glance at budgeting. This one is definitely two thumbs down.

[@Kevin-sm8pn]

I mean, to be fair, if someone wants to redo a space exactly they want it to without anyone putting their own stamp on it, then why not do it yourself? You have to pay for everything anyway, and you can take your time with it.

[@Ronkyort0dox]

Yeah I don't like these people

[@Leah_Michelle_21]

Beautiful!
