Thursday’s Inspiration ~ Place Settings

When I’m styling a completed interior design project, laying the table is a an absolute must-do.   There are so many ways to lay a table, especially depending on the room’s scheme and the occasion.  When laying the table at home, even for an informal kitchen supper, I always like to make sure I have put a little thought into it so that my guests can feel relaxed and enjoy their meal.

There’s often some confusion on how to lay a table, so I wanted to share a few ideas and give you a visual guideline which might be helpful.
