3 Simple Table Setting Ideas

Hey guys! I’d like to share 3 simple table setting ideas with you. I say simple because they don’t include silverware and only one setting includes stemware. These are not formal table settings that you’d see at a 5 star restaurant or at a wedding, lol. These are ideas/looks I created at casa de Pops Of Color Home.

This first table setting idea which includes a royal blue theme is very classic, timeless, and elegant. It can be used throughout the whole year! I started out the year with this theme and I was completely in love. Those octagon placemats were my inspiration. The moment I saw them I knew they had to be in my home, and they did. To achieve different looks for each season, add some fresh or faux flowers for spring and summer, some pumpkins and grape clusters for fall, and all the glitz and glam for Christmas!

Design Tip – Owning a set of neutral dinnerware is key! Especially if you change up your table setting as much as I do. Remember my very first blog post about one key bedroom design tip? If you haven’t read it, you should go check it out here. By neutral dinnerware, I’m talking about a plain set of white, silver, or gold. Or, a set of white mixed with silver or white mixed with gold, depending on your metal preference. I own a neutral set of plain white and a set of white mixed with silver and I pair with them other colors to switch things up. In the picture above, I’m using a silver charger, white and silver salad plates with blue and white dinner plates.

The second of 3 simple table setting ideas give you that Spring and Summer vibes. This beautiful Tiffany blue will bring fresh, light, and airy feel to any dining room. It’s simple and elegant. Add some blush peonies or blush roses for a girls-night-in or for a romantic dinner with your special someone. This was my second table setting for 2019, and I used this theme for all of Spring and most of Summer. It was a favorite for my Insta friends 🙂

Design Tip: Adding candles to your table setting will bring that warm and intimate feel. You can mix large and small candles to get the best results. I love these Cirque Pillar Holder, (notice they’re in the first two table settings) and I often times mix them with small votives.

This 3rd and final table setting idea gives a more sophisticated feel with the fresh flowers and champagne flutes. Yes, It was my 3rd table setting this year and I think it is my favorite. Maybe because fresh flowers are included or maybe it’s that green that I love so much? Tell me which table setting you like the most in the comment section below. This is another color that I think is classic and can be used for all 4 seasons. I personally wouldn’t use it for fall, but that’s just me. If you like it for fall, use it! Notice how I’m using the chargers from the 1st table setting, and salad and dinner plates from the 2nd table setting? I’m also using the placemats from the 2nd setting.

Design Tip: Buy a few different color napkins. Take another look at my 3rd table setting and you’ll notice that everything is neutral except for the napkins (and flowers, of course). I could change up this look in 1 minute by switching out the green napkins to the royal blue napkins from the 1st table setting or to the Tiffany blue napkins from the 2nd table setting. Now do you see why I said that owning a set of neutral dinnerware is key?

Thank you so much for reading and I hope you find these 3 Simple Table Setting Ideas helpful. Fall table setting coming up next, so stay tuned!
