The dinner table is a special place for any occasion. On gatherings or lazy weekends, this part of our homes has probably seen the most activity during the lockdown. And there’s no denying that carefully-chosen dinner plates, matching napkin rings and statement serveware can only enhance the experience of eating with your loved ones. Instagram-worthy tablescapes make for instant conversation starters and are guaranteed to leave your guests (and followers) swooning.
Sunday brunch or festive feasts, here’s a five-step guide to create a setting that elevates any meal. Read on and shop now.
Step 1
Set The Tone With Your Table Runner
Start by choosing a tablecloth or runner like the foundation that sets the tone for the rest of your setting. From bohemian macrame runners to luxurious India-inspired ikat and printed pieces, explore the various kinds of themes you can build your dinner-scape around.
Step 2
Introduce New Elements With Place Mats And Napkins
These help protect your table while introducing elements of colour and texture, but they don’t have to match your linens. Here’s your opportunity to contrast with your runner or match it with similar shades—take your pick with our options.
Step 3
Select Your Plates, Flatware And Glasses
From versatile white plates and clear glasses to bold motifs or colorful glassware, add personality to your dinner table with this step. Make sure to pick pieces that are easy to style with the rest of your collection.
Step 4
Pick Your Focal Points
Cheese boards, cake stands, candle stands or platters—these are the centrepieces that will take up most attention. Classic or quirky, we’ve got both options.
Step 5
Finish With Table Accessories
Make room condiment sets, unique napkin rings, quirky holders or even dessert serveware that sparks conversation, while also being functional additions to your setting.
