Stylist-created, and photographed by David Prince, this dining room is nothing short of amazing. I think that its style could best be described as "modern rustic." The traditional Windsor chairs alongside the light wood farmhouse table make up the rustic part of this room, yet the modern all-white chandelier and antler candle holders in front of the large piece of black-and-white artwork bring a modern element to the space. If only I had a dining room in this tiny apartment. Or a fireplace. Either one -- I'm not picky.

Anyway, I just love everything about this room, so I've decided to go ahead and see if I can re-create it for less. I bet I can do it for about $1500. Will you take that bet?

These elements will add up to a dining room full of style and savings!

Here's what I've found for a modern, rustic dining room.

From top left, clockwise: First, grab a pair of these Faux Deer Antler Candle Holders, $18.99 at Log Cabin Fever plus a can of white spray paint, $4.50, Lowes, and spray paint away!; This beautiful art print of a tree-lined horizon is reminiscent of the one in the inspiration photo: Dappled Morning Fields print framed, $145, Art.com; This look couldn't be complete without an all-white chandelier, like this Snow White Crystal Chandelier, $297 at Great Chandeliers; The Windsor Dining Chairs are a huge part of getting this look just right -- grab a set of 4 for $212 at Everything Furniture; The light-colored table contrasts with the chairs so nicely, and this Modern Farm Dining Table would be oh so right, $599, West Elm; And finally, since the space plays up candlelight, you've got to grab a bunch of these white Pillar Candles, $3.50 to $7.95, cb2.

How did we total out? With 8 chairs and 4 sets of candles we're at $1577, down to the details. Want to save? Poke around Grandma's house for the chairs or an old farmhouse table.
