You can showcase your colorful dishware and napkins without making the table look like a yard sale. Well here are a few tips on how to make any gathering memorable, from a casual weeknight dinner to a major holiday feast.
Set a Lovely Table
You can design a table that’s sophisticated, bursting with colorful personality—and inviting. Here’s how:
1. A neutral backdrop
Use a simple gray runner to show off a wood table. Then add off-white plates to highlight your delicious food better than more colorful dishware.
2. Pops of color
Use a few of colorful bowls as serving ware. Then placed some bright, mismatched napkins directly on the plates for a casual, festive look.
3. Double-duty decorations
In place of a large floral centerpiece (which is costly and takes up space), decorate the table with wine and water jugs, which relieve the host of having to play waiter. Also place a few small buds in some of the wineglasses.
