Tablescape is a term that blends the concepts of table setting and landscaping together where you are helping to create a mood and an atmosphere for your celebration. Tablescaping allows you to use your creativity to make the gathering more special for your friends and family members.
Tablescape is a word that was first coined by Sandra Lee in the early 2000s according to Wikipedia.
First, find a theme or inspiration for your decorations.
It can be an:
object
color combination
theme or season
Next you need a base.
That can be a runner, placemats, or both
You'll need tableware.
Plates, cups/glasses, cutlery, napkins. Don't be afraid to use paper or plastic if the event calls for it.
Then create a centerpiece.
Using dough bowls is a favorite centerpiece for me!
