Steps to setting a casual dinner table

Table décor tips

If you’re using solid colored plates and glassware, add a pop of color and interest with your table runner and centerpiece. Go festive with a traditional cornucopia flowing over with fresh gourds and fruit flanked by simple candles on either end, or opt for something more modern with a creative floral display. To keep kids entertained, use these cute Kraft paper Thanksgiving placemats available on Etsy, or make your own!
