Weeknight dinners don't need a styled table. A few nice basics you use every day make a meal feel a little more special without any extra work.
Cloth napkins
Cloth napkins are the easiest upgrade for an everyday table. The cotton farmhouse napkins come in a mix of patterns, so nothing has to match and losing one is no problem. For a softer, more relaxed look, the French linen napkins are stonewashed and look fine without ironing.
Candles at dinner
Lighting a candle tells everyone that dinner has started. The colorful spiral taper candles add color even before they're lit, and they're dripless, so the table stays clean. Tall, slim candles also keep the view across the table open.
Plan your pairings
Match your napkins and candles in your head ahead of time, so you have a ready pairing for every table theme. For example, the patterned cotton napkins with the colorful spiral candles for a bright, casual dinner, and the linen napkins with plainer candles for a calmer one. Once the pairings are decided, setting the table takes a minute.
