White Distressed Dining Table

Distressed White Dining Table With Drawers

Made of solid pinewood with a distressed plank top is this white dining table. It features four straight legs and six slide-out drawers with scoop handles for quick access.

Designer Advice:

Distressed dining tables that come with drawers are great for storing tableware, napkins, and napkin holders, which frees up space in small kitchens. For a seamless style, match parts of chairs, like the legs, to the handles on the dining table drawers. If you don't like the handles, you can always swap them with ones that better match your theme.

White Dining Table With Wavy Apron

Kelly Clarkson Home

Ultra girly is this distressed dining table with a soft tapered table edge. To match the rectangular top, it has a curvy apron and four bowed and dainty legs.

$769.99

Designer Advice:

Dining tables with curvy aprons add a feminine flair often seen in shabby chic style. Add chairs with curvy legs and pastel or floral seats and hang a chandelier to ace the shabby chic feel. Because of its curves, this is not a good choice if you’re aiming for a sharp and sleek style seen in modern design.

Trestle style Distressed Dining Table

Kelly Clarkson Home

Stabilized with a table leg connector is this distressed white dining table made of poplar wood and veneers. It comes with two table leaves to extend the table to fit from six to eight people.

Designer Advice:

A white dining table with a trestle style offers you more leg space compared to tables that come with four legs. Trestle tables prevent you from hitting your knees on the legs of the table, making it a great choice for tall people with long legs. For a lighter and more minimalistic design choose tables that come with four legs.

Buying Guide

A white distressed dining table can be the anchor for the rest of the décor. The perfect base that can set the tone for the other furniture. It’s almost like a no-brainer choice that saves you from hours of hemming and hawing trying to decide everything from the color to the material for the dining table.

It’s white. It’s infallible. And it comes in distressed finish that blends right into your contemporary kitchen or your classic themed home. Or even in your retro, shabby chic home. You get the gist.

White and distressed is a universal combo. You can put it anywhere and it will stay put. But if you are still trying to figure out what factors to consider before you shop for a white distressed dining table, then here’s some help.

What shape table fits best into your space?

A dining table is a long-term investment, so it’s best to keep things simple. Consider the available space and what shape table fits best into it:

A round table maximizes space, is informal and perfect for social gatherings. As a plus, it allows you to be a tad flexible with the seating.
A square one can be used even in a corner and gives the diners a lot of surface space.
A rectangular one, on the other hand, is typically used in a six-seater setting or in a spacious room.

Dining tables come in more shapes than you’d imagine. But you don’t want to experiment too much or get swayed by voguish trends. Or few years down the line, you’d wake up and wonder what made you pick that design.

How to measure for a dining table?

Measure the height, the length, the width (circumference in case of a round or oval table), the length of the inner legs and the depth of the table top surface. Jot down these numbers. Numbers tend to be deceptive. So, mark this exact measurement in the room using painter’s tape or fabric or cardboard to get a good idea of the actual space that the table will occupy.

You need to leave at least 3 feet of space between walls and the edge of the table. This will allow the diners to pull the chairs out with ease. Ideally, there must be at least 24 inches of space between each chairs. But you can reduce or increase this depending on whether you seek a more spacious seating arrangement or a cozier one.

If you can sit at the table before you buy, then check for the leg room. Tables with a pedestal or trestle base offer the maximum leg room and you can even squeeze in an extra chair or two. On the other hand, if the table has thick legs or a thick apron then you might find your knees wrestling with the table legs for space.

What are distressed dining tables typically crafted from?

Distressed finished tables are typically made of wood. Depending on what you are willing to spend on it, you can pick from solid wood or cheaper varieties like pine, mango, and teak.

Wood veneer is a cost-effective choice that’s a combination of a thin layer of solid wood and plywood. Some tables can also have a stone tabletop with wooden legs.

What questions should you ask yourself before you select a dining table?

How will you use the table? If it will be used every day, then opt for a simple, sturdy table that will last for years. If it will be used rarely or for those once-in-a-while shindigs, then you can shift the focus from durability to aesthetics.

How many people will be using the table? If it’s four people, then look for a table that can seat six people comfortably. That’s if your budget allows for the upsizing and you have the room to occupy a bigger table.

Are you going to throw parties a lot? If you host guests frequently, then you can consider an extending table.
