For a lot of families, the dining room is the most formal room in the house. It's often the centerpiece of important gatherings - from major holidays shared with multiple generations of family and friends, to intimate, sit-down dinners that unite today's families for important conversations or the simple pleasure of sharing a meal.

Usually, this room will be decorated to reflect the personality and lifestyle of the occupants. Colour can be used to demonstrate the vivacious and outgoing temper or the prudent, conservative tastes. The floor and window coverings will play a big role in establising the ambiance of the room and setting the mood with proper lighting is normally the finishing touch.

There are a lot of products to choose from. Hardwood and laminate floors with carefully selected area rugs can do so much to create the specific ambiance you desire. Visit your Sears Floor Covering Centres to choose from our wide range of warranty approved products to suit even the most discriminating tastes.
