 1. Tablescape essentials in classic red, white, and blue never go out of style

American Plaid Table Runner

Classic Americana red, white, and blue colors and stars and stripes forever. 

• The foundation of any tablescape is typically the tablecloth. It sets the tone and the other elements are put together to complement it. This cotton Star Check Tablecloth makes such a powerful statement, whether you use it for a summer bbq, or an outdoor picnic.
• If you want to showcase your dining table but still want to add character to your setting, then a runner is the best product to turn to. A bold, printed design like this cotton American Plaid Table Runner can go well with wooden tables with a farmhouse or rustic charm.   
• When putting together a tablescape, every detail must be considered. Even small elements like utensils and glassware contribute to the overall vibe. This Hand-Painted Patriotic Glass Carafe will add that special touch to your classic red, blue, and white theme.
• If you have your stars and red accents ready this nautical inspired stripe set will help complete your Americana look. Stripe Tabletop Placemats  
• Highlight your dinner plates by setting them against a round, bold-hued placemat like this Americana Braided Placemat. It’s made of tight woven durable polypropylene that’s stain-resistant and suitable for outdoor use.
  
  
  

  2. Neutral natural elements for your table settings are versatile must-haves. 

Natural Tonal Stripe With Fringe Placemats - Set of 6

Anyone who loves entertaining at home knows how important it is to invest in neutral-hued hosting essentials, particularly dinnerware and table linens and accessories. Not only can they serve as a canvas for bolder accents, like the centerpiece and other décor, they’re also timeless and can be constantly reused. 

• Coasters are small, charming details that make a big difference in a table spread. This Handmade Toquilla Straw Coaster is made of 100% natural fiber and handmade by women artists in Ecuador. Not only is it pretty, it’s eco-friendly, too!
• To lend an earthy aesthetic to your tablescape, check out these braided Seagrass Mats made of sturdy material and are visually striking.
• If your setting’s theme is boho, this round Handmade Jute Placemat will perfectly complement the overall laid-back mood. What’s more beautiful about it is it was sustainably handmade by Fair Trade artisans in Bangladesh.
• In keeping with a clean, easy-on-the-eyes scheme, it’s best to match linens in natural hues and materials with solid white dinnerware, like this glazed Porcelain White Salad Plates.
• A table setting feels incomplete without stylish accents that enhance the ambience. For this, candles are typically the go-to. Try the Pier 1 Cuban Vanilla Solid Pillar Candle whose aroma of true vanilla bean is blended with warm woods.
