Ahhh, The dining table, so many beautiful options...Here's a few tips to get your creative concepts rolling..Never neglect what you already own, don't be afraid to use your fine china and crystal, it only grows dusty in the closet.
Maybe casual dining is more your style, collect evergreens from around the yard and display your collection in similar vases or vessels.... As I've said in the past, just stick with a commonality. Ex, all white, glass, vintage etc. Don't forget to mix textures, scale + height of objects
PURE ELEGANCE
