What do you think about a piano in a casual dining room?
We recently got a much bigger set of living room furniture. We have a lot of guest so seating was a must. The main problem with that is there is no more room for our upright piano anymore. It's a nice antique piece that my husband loves so I would really like to put it in one of our more public rooms. The only other place I can think of is in the dining room. Is that weird to have a piano in a casual dining area? I would really like to keep it casual but worry that it'll look out of place. Any ideas on how to keep it casual yet incorporate the piano. Thanks!
My husband plays the piano and I can play a little. We have owned it for a while now and it's really special to my husband as it's been passed down for generations. At first I thought about selling it but it really is nice.

Sounds classy.
I think it's a lovely idea! To keep the casual feel, pink a couple bright colors to incorporate throughout the room - for example, choose a vibrant pink or blue for napkins and place settings, and carry it over with a throw draped over the piano bench in the same color.
that's sounds real nice
Pianos are frequently kept in the dining room as its somewhere they can be stored (and used still) that tends to have a little more space for them. Nothing odd about it at all.
I think that's a great idea, really! Not weird at all. Kind of cool actually. Just don't be setting glasses and cups and stuff on it.
well it would look nice, but is thier rooom in thier for a dinig set and a pinao? you must have a big dinding room. if you do decide to do this, you might need a smaller dinin set, maybe a little wrought iron type like a cafe, with a glass table top, and very italian. Get the picture?
we used to have it in a bedroom and now in a living room and I think that's the best place to put it. I wouldn't put it in a dining room, but maybe it would look ok. you have to try.
how about you stick it in the corner but not all the way. About like facing the other side.
It sounds like a good idea, but if you buy an antique piano and no one in your household plays the piano it might indeed look out of place and come across as pretention. In order to "keep it casual yet incorporate the piano" you might buy it and then start taking piano lessons, so that you could entertain your guests when you invite them over for dinner... unless, of course, you already play the piano :)
A piano belongs in a living room/family room not a kitchen
