I really don’t know anyone who uses their formal dining room, except for maybe holiday dinners on occasion. For the longest time, I just used it as another place to decorate for holidays, making elaborate centerpieces that I loved to look at. Then I used it as a storage room, in essence, for all my craft supplies. Now it’s the kids’ playroom because their toys were overrunning our family room. What are you doing with yours?
Turn it into a playroom
Your new home office
Create a Guest Room
Transform it into a home gym
Design a craft room
Build a recording studio
Make a library or reading room
Turn it into a lounge area or second living room
Go practical with a storage area
You Can Even Create Two Rooms if your dining room is large
Create Some Calm With an Indoor Garden
Spice up your home with a Game Room
Socialize with a Bar area
