We all have times when we want to add a bit of elegance to our dinner party. Whether it is a holiday event or a special occasion, you can easily dress up your table.
8 Easy Steps for Creating Elegant Table Settings
Use a Tablecloth on the top of your table. This may be an actual tablecloth you have on hand, fabric that you have purchased or simply pull out a bed sheet as we have done here. This plain white sheet will anchor the elegant look of the table at no cost to you. The theme of your table could easily change with the color of your cloth.
Fresh Flowers always bring a touch of elegance to a table setting. No need to be a floral designer; these no fuss simple floral arrangements were created using clear glass vases inserted with stems of baby’s breath (gypsophila).
White Dishes are easy to use, always in style and will work with any of your theme color choices. Don’t be afraid to mix and match the different styles you may have on hand to create a one of a kind look.
Place a Charger beneath your place setting. Whether you use purchased ones or create your own, chargers will certainly add to the elegance of your event. You can find a do it yourself charger HERE.
Using Cloth Napkins will let your guests know this is a special event. Simple cloth napkins in a fancy fold give the table a dressed up look.
Candles add warmth and elegance to any table. Using a combination of styles and heights will add interest to your table settings.
Don’t you just love the look of the candle in the blue evening light?
Crystal Accents can enhance the look of any elegant table and can be used with any color scheme. Don’t be afraid to use a variety of pieces. A collection of garage sale finds and Hobby Lobby purchases were used to create this look.
