Inspiration: Holiday Table Setting

Holiday Table Setting

Each holiday season, my mother, sisters, and I all get together to plan our Thanksgiving menu. During that time, we also decide on the tableware with each of us bringing something. Usually, one of my sisters pulls out her classic Nambe pieces, the other polishes off a few of her Fornasetti plates and I bring an assortment of practical — Pyrex baking dishes — and vintage — my favorite Fire King Jadeite pieces. Despite the fact there’s not shortage of dinnerware, I always have a wish list of a few more pieces that I’d like to add to the spread. Here are the items on this year’s dinner party wish list:

1. Mega French Press

2. Cork Knife Set

3. Mercury Glass Hurricane Vase

4. Fog Linen Apron

5. Rediscovered Flatware

6. Tattered Lace Dinnerware

7. Castle Key Bottle Opener

8. Bubbled Beverage Dispenser

9. Red Stripe Tablecloth


Inspiration is a reoccurring series where I share visual tabletop and kitchen design elements that are currently piquing my interest.
