However, if the dining table is located in the kitchen or land for example, it’s a good idea to create some kind of boundary to give it a separate identity. This divide can be mounted with screens or plants and help the family to eat without disruption. In feng shui tradition, the focus of your dining room or dining area must be the table. Perhaps, an obvious statement to make that precede decoration and ornament arrangement surrounding this focal point can still be disrupted.
