Follow our inspirational ideas to create a relaxed look for spring dining.

Serving tray
Condiments and soft drinks are easily passed around when kept on a decorative tray or plate.

Place setting
Egg cups used as miniature vases and tied with a name card are an inventive way for guests to find their seats.

Tablecloth
Table runners are both practical and decorative as they can run either way across the table to double up as place-mats.

Tableware
Crockery, cutlery and napkins that conform to a single colour theme make for a cohesive feel.

Centrepiece
A display of short-stemmed flowers in tealight holders will not obstruct your guests line of vision.

Glassware
Lay out glassware in strong colours and in different styles alongside more classic designs.
