Dining room table

[melodylogan45]

Is your dining room table only used to eat on only or do you keep papers and other items on your table all the time. I live in an apartment, so I have papers and medication on the table too.

Its seems like on only use the dining room table for dining is when I have guests. Normally it holds a table runner, a few decorative items, and flowers from the garden...and books that go back to the library.

We use it for eating sometimes together and sometime we may use it for some work,but pick up right after. I never leave anything on my table.

We eat on it.  The only thing on the table is a crystal bowl in the middle and a candle on either side.

We have a formal dining room, it's only used for the occasional dinner, or family game playing. Nothing is on it, but a center decoration.

We mostly all eat in the kitchen, there is a table & chair set in there & a bunch of windows to look out of while one eats, nothing is left on the table though, but it is used frequently for homework, bill paying, etc...  but it is always cleaned up after.

I eat on my dining room table and I fold my clothes, read the paper, look thru magazines etc.

Unfortunately, my dining room has been severely neglected since I bought it five years ago. My family and I often eat in the living room (on a sofa, couch, etc.) while the dining room continues to be bare (I don't even have anything on it, other than the placemats!).

I use mine for working n crafts, unless we have some one in for dinner. There is just the 2 of us and hubby would rather eat in front of the  TV so i figure why not . Why eat in  there by my self. Either way i still have to do the dishes and stuff. But  i don't take the food up anymore until after we eat, just so i don't  dirty up any more then i have too, Think he was a bachlor way too long.

We only use for eating, it generally is decorated with  plate mat or sometimes runner and some other decorative wood craft items, plates, cups etc. We do no not store anything else on it.

i have a love/hate relationship with mine. everything gets thrown on it then all of a sudden we are having company and we have to find places to put all our stuff that we didnt know what to do with in the first place

It's the only place big enough to do my 1000 piece puzzles. So I do my puzzles there.

It's used for a gathering place.  We eat there and have papers on it.  I throw the mail on it  and then after a few days I go through it and throw out the junk mail.  Its only bare when I change the tablecloth and placemats.

I have my grandmother's old dining room table and her corner cupboard.  We only eat on it for Thanksgiving or other special occasions with guests.  In between time, I try to keep it unloaded, and use it for different projects.  Right now I have a portable "lay flat to dry" rack on it with a shirt I hand washed, and on the other side, I've laid out a jigsaw puzzle!

   We use it only for buffets when dining. The rest of the time, we use it for office work: Computers, paperwork, sewing, knitting and any other arts and crafts.

We use it to play board games when its cleaned out and make Sweets from time to time.
