From Everyday to Festive: Quick Table Styling Tips
The period beginning with Navaratri all the way till Diwali is a time of joy, colors, and togetherness. When friends and family gather around the table, it’s the little touches that make the meal feel special. This year, we put together a dining setup that is festive — using our newly launched Moonlit Ivy Tablecloth, paired with the Woven Aegean Blue Runner and Aegean Blue Napkins.
Why Start with the Moonlit Ivy Tablecloth?
This isn’t just a tablecloth — it’s almost like laying a secret garden across your table. The teal base feels like twilight skies after rain — deep, lush, and grounding. Against it, the pale green leaves unfurl like whispers of a forest path. The craft of hand block printing carries heritage, but the restrained two-tone palette makes it adaptable to both classic and contemporary homes.
Spread out on a dining table, the pattern doesn’t sit still — it flows. The creepers meander, the leaves sway, and suddenly the table becomes more than a surface — it becomes a setting, a scene, almost a mood.
Wondering how to style it? Pair it with gold cutlery or even traditional brass bowls — the colors and prints adapt beautifully, making your table festive-ready in minutes.
Do You Really Need a Table Runner?
Think of the Woven Aegean Blue Runner as the calm river that flows through your dining setup — deep, steady, and endlessly graceful. Its rich indigo-blue tone doesn’t shout for attention, yet it anchors everything placed upon it. The subtle woven design almost feel like ripples in water, catching light in soft, shifting ways.
When layered with the teal Moonlit Ivy, the contrast is striking yet harmonious — the dense, leafy garden finds balance in the simplicity of the runner’s rhythm. Together, they weave a story: wild nature meeting crafted order, freshness meeting depth.
How Do Napkins Change the Mood?
It’s surprising how much of a difference napkins make. Our Aegean Blue Napkins complete the look with their deep tone, tying together the prints and patterns on the table. Fold them neatly under the plates, or tuck them into a napkin ring — either way, they add a simple touch of thoughtfulness that makes the whole setup feel polished.
What About the Festive Touch?
No Navaratri dining setup is complete without a pop of color and light. We used fresh marigolds in shades of yellow and orange, paired with simple candles in glass holders. The flowers bring vibrancy, while the candles create a warm glow against the cool blue backdrop.
With just a bowl of flowers and a few candles, your table is instantly transformed — festive but still minimal.
Why This Setup Works So Well
- It’s quick: No heavy decorations or complicated styling. The textiles do most of the work for you.
- It’s balanced: The calming blues from the tablecloth and runner are lifted by the brightness of marigolds and gold accents.
- It’s versatile: Thinking beyond Navaratri? The same setup works beautifully for Diwali dinners, casual family get-togethers, or even brunches.
