Pretty Napkins and Folds

9:19 am by 

Napkins and a variation of folds hold a fascination for me.  Be them cloth or paper… I always appreciate the time and creativity of an interesting pattern and fold.  And, they contribute so much personality to the table setting.

Love the organic yet chic feel of this table setting!

    I love the red and white place settings with the wooden balls down the center of the table. With a lower centerpiece, conversations are easier during the meal. Otherwise, you may run into the awkwardness of talking to a floral centerpiece instead of the bride’s irretrievably handsome, single cousin.

    My brother’s groom’s dinner is this weekend, and my mom is planning red bandanas for napkins, tied with a raffia bow – in honor of the couple moving out west after the wedding.
