Love Fixer Upper and mid-century modern style? Today’s ‘Get This Look’ post features the mid-century modern dining room of the Fixer Upper Safe Gamble House (Season 5, Episode 6). We love this blend of Joanna’s signature vibe with mid-century furniture and decor.

JoAnna designed the Safe Gamble House for her little sister Mikey’s adorable family. She was sure to incorporate Mikey’s love of mid-century modern decor and vintage finds into the home’s dining room. You also see southwest design elements as Mikey’s husband David is partial to southwest decor. The wood beams, boho rug, and cacti art print in the dining room all lend to David’s sensibilities. While the mid-century modern chandelier and dining set play to Mikey’s aesthetic.

Ready to create your mid-century modern dining room with hints of southwest flair? Discover our six tips for creating your own mid-century modern dining room on a budget.

1. Hang a Sputnik Chandelier

Few items are as iconic with mid-century modern design as a Sputnik chandelier. Did you know JoAnna salvaged this chandelier from a previous Fixer Upper project? There’s no question she knows good design when she sees it. To achieve the same look, we’ve rounded up some affordable Sputnik chandeliers below.

Options: 18-light sputnik chandelier, 10-light gold sputnik chandelier, 18-light polished nickel sputnik chandelier, 12-light gold chandelier, sputnik black and gold industrial chandelier, under $100 sputnik chandelier

2. Find a vintage style cacti or botanical art print

To bring a hint of vintage southwest decor to the space, JoAnna chose a framed cacti art print reminiscent of antique encyclopedias. Etsy is a great place to find authentic cacti and botanical encyclopedia prints or reproduction digital downloads. One of the eight affordable art print options we’ve discovered are sure to fit your personal taste.

Options: succulent framed print, herb chart framed art, watercolor succulent wall hanging, cactus canvas tapestry, cactus garden print digital download, vintage botany print digital download, encyclopedia cacti art print, botanical art print

3. Feature a mid-century modern style dining table & chairs

While an antique dining sent from the era is both gorgeous and authentic, the price tag isn’t ideal for a mid-century modern decor enthusiast on a budget. But thanks to the versatility of mid-century modern design, good quality reproduction pieces are popping up everywhere. Below you’ll find some of our favorite mid-century modern dining tables and chairs from the Project 62 line a Target, BHG line at Walmart, and Wayfair.

Click the thumbnail or link to view product:

Options: Project 62 mid Emmond dining table, Project 62 Maston dining table, Lydia dining table, Kersey dining table, Walker Edison dining table, Chastain side chair, Septimus side chair, Reed mid century modern dining chair, dark walnut mid century dining chair, Romeo upholstered dining chair

4. Create a minimalist centerpiece with modern candlesticks

Simple gold tapered candlesticks are all you need to create a minimalist centerpiece. A non-fussy centerpiece matches the dining room’s overall style. However, if a group of candlesticks doesn’t feel grand enough, opt for a modern candelabra–candles optional.

Click the thumbnail or link to view product:

Options: Project 62 candlestick set, multiple taper candle holder, single taper candle holder, star taper candle holder, cursive candlestick, spiral candelabra, assemblage candelabra, 7-piece bubble candle holder, glass votive candelabra

5. Choose classic white dinnerware

You can never go wrong with classic white dinnerware. With neutral coupe dinnerware you’re free to easily customize your place settings no matter the season or occasion.  Here JoAnna brings a hint of southwest farmhouse flair with the addition of mustard napkins and decorative tumblers.

Click the thumbnail or link to view product:

Options: Coupe dinnerware set, ivory organic dinnerware, mustard napkin, black stripe napkin, amber glass tumblers, Opalhouse glass tumbler

6. Select a colorful, boho style area rug

Selecting a colorful, boho style area rug will add a playful vibe to your dining space. It also perfectly incorporates southwest style with the mid-century modern design elements. A pop of color is always a good idea!

Options: Matteo loomed rug, boho medallion rug, Moroccan multicolor rug, Opalhouse geometric rug, Sonnet pink rug, Mohave area rug
