Table Setting Trends for 2015

Nothing is more welcoming than a beautifully set table for a dinner party.  Whether it’s set for two or twenty-two, the table top is a chance to be playful and charming to excite your guest for what delights are to come.

When it comes to dinnerware, your collection may be a mixed bag.  Family heirlooms passed down from your grandmother, your everyday ware, and even some fun flea market finds.  One trend we love and believe it’s here to stay is layering your table setting with mix-matched style.  Mixing black and white for an elegant event, or red white and blue for a 4th of July barbecue; experiment with old and new, high end china with Ikea just express yourself!

The Jigsaw Designers like mixing metals in home decor as well as table settings.  Try mixing gold, rose gold and silver for your table top any time of year.  Adding in a square shape along with your round plates is interesting a will be a nice surprise for your guests.

Mixing jewel tones and bright colorful patterns will create a dramatic looks that’s feels a little bohemian. This look plays off as romantic and well traveled.

Another trend we love is the natural earthy look.  This can be achieved by mixing greenery with simple tea lights, copper mugs and flatware or wooden chargers.  Take this look a step further with a zebra skin and tusks for an escape into the wild as seen in the image below.

Summer is here and we all crave the beach this time of year.  Bringing the beach into your dining room for a California coastal girls lunch sets the tone for an afternoon of fun.  Neutral colors reminiscent of the sea, with touches of blue, sea shells, candles and even sea shell chargers add the finishing touches to this relaxing experience.

The possibilities are endless with the setting of the table.  It’s just as creative as the meal itself and can often take just as long to prepare.  The key is to play around with different looks and have fun!
