Dining Room inspiration

We repainted the dining room and hung new curtains, but I've been itching to add some "wow factor" to the space. Here's how it looks today:

I'm thinking a new chandelier:

 

From Shades of Light

A coffered ceiling:

From Design*Dump . The other projects at Design*Dump are amazing too and very inspirational.

A properly-placed chair rail, with picture-frame moldings. Our current chair rail is only 30" high so our chairs leave marks on the wall.

 

From Artisan Specialties 

Maybe a new rug. 

 

I noticed Overstock is selling West Elm rugs, now might be the time to try a jute rug.
