Team napkin or team paper napkin? 🤍
When styling a casual dinner table for family and friends, I don’t always reach for a full tablecloth. Sometimes all you need is beautiful layering.
For this table, I started with warm white jute placemats and added the Ruby Orchard table runner to bring colour, pattern and personality to the centre of the table. A little tip, don’t be afraid to fold your runner to suit the size of your table.
Now let’s talk napkins...
I will always choose a cloth napkin over a paper one. A beautifully folded napkin and napkin ring instantly elevates a place setting, making guests feel welcomed and the occasion feel just a little more special. There’s something lovely about sitting down, unfolding your napkin and placing it on your lap before a meal.
Layered with organic green and clay dinnerware, gold cutlery, crystal glassware, scalloped serving pieces and a stunning floral arrangement, this table proves that a few thoughtful details can completely transform a casual dinner.
At Shared Plates, we believe styling your table should be simple. That’s why we curate complete looks, allowing you to shop almost everything you see on the table in one place,
