Centerpieces can be simple or elaborate, fun and festive, or elegant and beautiful. Table setting themes are easily achieved with seasonal items and seasonal napkins. A bouquet of flowers, a ceramic object, pinecones, a toy, leaves, fruit, and almost anything else can be used as a centerpiece. Make sure that people are able to see across the table to others sitting at the table without the centerpiece blocking their view.
Table Etiquette and Manners
1. Table setting
In most of the western countries, family mealtime around the kitchen table happen every night. The table set with plate, drinking glass, knife, fork, spoon, napkin and a centerpiece is very commonplace in most homes. To set a basic table, you will need a dinner plate, glass, knife, fork, spoon and napkin. A simple centerpiece, salt and pepper along with any other seasonings or condiments a family enjoys is a wonderful finishing touch. Keeping it simple may be the key to routine table setting.
