We teach you how to craft the most stunning table!
Tableware is one of the first things we think about as we start planning the return of safe soirees. We know this might not be on the priority list then, but as parties are allowed to upsize, we’re going the extra mile to make this one worth remembering. And mind you, we’re not talking about putting down a few bowls and plates. Tablescape is a work of art. More accurately, a feast for the eyes created through textures, patterns, bouquets, and candles. No worries if home decorating is not your forte. Ahead, we’re sharing with you a few must-haves for crafting the most beautiful table! Oh, and Christmas is happening in just two months, so better get your head in the game!
Golden Touch
Not everyone is born with a silver spoon in their mouth, but at least we get to have gold cutlery on the table. They make a great element of whimsy and are versatile enough to complement any theme, like these from Slique that go well with red or green. Fashioned from high-quality stainless steel, Slique’s version guarantees durability, sturdiness, and rust resistance.
Goblet Up
Certain decor pieces are imperative in setting the ambiance of a dinner. And stopping guests right in their tracks is this green vintage goblet that exudes magical, even medieval vibes. With their tall build easily spotted on tables, they make great centerpieces. Functional ones, if we may, as these make great beverage holders too — hot or cold!
Take Charge
We know, holding a banquet for so many guests is accumulating dirty plates in the sink. Well, since we’re already washing so many, why not go full-out on the decorations? We’re thinking fancy charging plates as that’s where the guests will be directing their eyeballs most of the time. Furthermore, they also keep meals hot and dining tables unscathed from hot plates and bowls.
Shine Bright
Candlelit dinners used to be a two-person affair. But with coziness being emphasized for the table, having some glim is now the go-to. Think elegant candles in between flower foliage, that is a sure-win way to take your guests’ breath away. Even better if you opt for scented ones such as Jasmine and Magnolia that will remind them of a crisp springtime breeze.
A Home Run
You know what’s the fastest way to mislead people into thinking you got new furniture? By dressing them up! A runner like this would come in handy when your table is a few years old as angry scratches and peeled paint are bound to be visible. Though, good thing some beautiful cloth can turn things around. Plus, this one has heat insulation, anti-scalding, and non-slip features — giving the most holistic table protection you can ever dream of.
