Ever stressing about what kind of table place settings you need for your holiday dinner? How fancy do you need to be? Are you trying to impress your in-laws or parents? Or your friends and coworkers?
China is beautiful but not necessary in my opinion. China usually
is passed down as an heirloom or we’ll register for china if we are getting
married, but the formality of the meal is completely up to the host. Beautiful
knock off disposal china place settings can be purchased at Costco, Smart and
Final, or Party City. Table settings can range from one plate for the main
course and one plate for dessert, to multiple plates and courses.
Decorations are where you can have fun. Name holders for seating
makes the feel of the meal more formal, and personally, I like to let people choose
where they sit. Sites like Pinterest show amazing table layout arrangements
from simple to advanced. If you would like to get the kids involved, you can
have them help out with the decorations, maybe making holiday crafts for the
occasion, or helping set up the table. This gives you a chance to teach the
young ones about place settings and what the different utensils are used for.
Putting flowers or holiday themed decorations on the table give a
very fun and festive look. Candles are great if young children are not present,
and make sure you don’t over decorate, you gotta leave room for the food you
will place on the table!
When hosting a
holiday dinner, the table place settings will set the mood of the formality of
the event. Opt for whatever makes you happy, whatever is easier for you to
manage, and don’t stress yourself out! Holiday dinners are for getting to come
together with your family and friends and celebrate the holiday season with
those you love.
