A colorful table is exciting for both you and your guests!
When Jane Scott reflects on her evolution from white-on-white table linens to more colorful sets, she remembers her days living in her family's Kentucky home in the country.
"I had to make my own fun and have friends out," she remembers, "I started to rely on creating these beautiful table settings that would get me excited about the event [for which] I was asking people to travel out and visit me."
Using color on your table can inject a joi de vivre into an occasion, especially when your linens coordinate with your chosen scheme!
Colorful linens and table settings can help your occasion feel warm and more approachable.
There's nothing like the chic elegance of a formal, white-on-white table setting for the right occasion. However, for an event that can lean more casual or transitional, Jane Scott loves to go for color. It can help guests feel more at ease if they arrived in blue jeans!
Plus, these linens can pull out colors in your china and spark table decor ideas in ways white-on-white linens may not.
"[You can] start thinking about [how] you set your table as how you dress yourself"
- Jane Scott Hodges
