0:00.0	Come in and have a seat. We have some things to tell you.
0:11.4	Hey everybody, it's Kelly Wilkins with Anita Joyce, and this is decorating tips and tricks.
0:16.7	Today we are discussing dining room mistakes you may or may not be making.
0:22.9	Maybe you're setting it and forgetting it or maybe you're not even setting it and you're
0:27.2	forgetting it.
0:28.6	There's a lot of things you could be doing in your dining room to make it fabulous, whether
0:31.9	you're an entertaining Maven or whether or not you just pass through that room once
0:35.6	in a while and it's got to look good just for you.
0:38.6	You're right, Kelly. I think a lot of times this is a neglected room. I think people tend to
0:44.4	decorate it once, and they feel like it's done because it has a table, it has chairs in there,

1:25.1	home. Well, you know, God bless if you have a house big enough where there are rooms you never even
1:29.6	have to go in.
1:30.5	But even if you have such a big house, you should go in there and do something in those rooms
1:35.1	and make use of them.
1:36.4	It's just better for the whole vibe of the house to be using these spaces.
1:41.7	So I'm going to link to the episode we did. Do you remember, is the dining room dead? Yeah, that was a good one. I'm going to include that link. Because if you're not using it as your dining room, you can use it for something else. And we'll link to that episode and you'll enjoy it. Yes. And that thing we all went through that I'm tired of hearing the word of, we don't have to talk about that, but yes, there were other reasons why people were using their dining room for a long period of time. It did not have to do with eating. So if you're still doing that, that's a good use of your dining room. You could do some work in there or bring your laptop in there.
