Easy and Affordable Table-Setting Ideas

Simple Setting

Don’t waste your time (or money) adding dinnerware or glassware that’s not going to be used. Stick to the necessities, and evaluate what you already own before heading out on a shopping spree. (It’s OK to mix and match.)

Here, multicolored bamboo place mats tie in the colors used in every aspect of the table setting. The solid-colored napkins and plates keep the scene from being too busy.
