Make It Bold: Embracing Colour and the Unexpected at Your Table
Make It Bold: Embracing Colour and the Unexpected at Your Table
There’s something liberating about ditching the rules and doing your table your way. Who says centrepieces have to be fancy or that your napkins should match your plates? Colour is joy. Play is powerful. And when it comes to your table, we’re all for making the unordinary feel like your everyday normal.
Here’s how to lean into colour, push the boundaries, and create a table that feels totally, unapologetically you:
1. Start with bold linen
A vibrant runner or a stack of colourful napkins instantly sets the tone. Think sunshine yellow, electric teal, watermelon pink — shades that make you smile before the food even hits the plate.
2. Forget the traditional centrepiece
You don’t need florist-level arrangements. A bowl of lemons. A few bright veggies. Candles from around the house. A pitcher filled with branches or herbs. If it fits on the table and makes you happy, it belongs.
3. Mix what you’ve got
Old glassware, different plates, second-hand candle holders—yes, yes, and yes. It doesn’t need to match to look beautiful. In fact, the magic is often in the mix.
4. Add layers of personality
A cloth napkin in your favourite colour. A quirky salt shaker. A little something that tells your guests, "This is my table." Don’t be afraid to let it reflect you.
5. Let the vibe be the goal, not the rules
There are no awards for the most polished table setting. But a table that invites people in, makes them linger, and sparks a smile? That’s the real win.
So go bold. Break the matchy-matchy mindset. And let your table be a place where colour, creativity, and a little bit of chaos come together beautifully.
