Hello everyone this is Karen Nelson with Design With Your Dime in Mind.
and today I'm going to show you how to put together this Thanksgiving plate setting.
as seen here
ok so let's get started
First of all your going to take a charger
and I actually recommend taking a charger that is in a color that can be used for multiple
holidays
this one I have, I chose red so I could use if for Christmas as well as
Valentine's Day
We're going to start with this
and then we're going to layer the dishes that you already have
again I chose red because
my
everyday
uh... plates
actually have red in them.
so your gonna first put your charger down then you're gonna layer your plate
and then you're gonna layer your salad plate on top of that
to get the napkin together
we're going to take just a regular cloth napkin
and
it really helps if you press these but for time sake today I did not do that
but you're gonna have your regular square napkin, cloth napkin
and we're going to fold that
in a triangular shape
as evenly as we can
and then we're just gonna fold that again in another triangular shape
then keep your point at the top
and you're going to fold one side half way in
and fold the other side around it
to create this little pocket which is where we're going to put our silverware
so once you've done that you place that on your plate
and you take your silverware if you would like
and place it inside the pocket you created
just like that
our next step is to take our..These are actually
berry picks you have for floral arrangements
but i wanted to use these to create this look so your going to bend the bottom
of the pick
and you're going to stick it inside of the pocket you created
and then
you're just going to..
these all have wire in them so you're just going to
put it the way you would like to form it
and then the other thing I thought was cute is I love when people do place settings
so I found these cute little wooden acorns
added a tag and wrote the person's name on it
so we're just going to layer that on top of here
so everyone knows exactly where they're going to sit
so this completes our plate setting
