Simple Everyday Tablescapes

Simple Everyday Tablescapes

Say "so long" to the crowded, cluttered tablescapes of the past. Simple, elegant textiles can elevate any space without the fuss.

Tablescape, you say? Like table-setting?

Yes! But unlike the super detailed, overwhelming tablescapes you see on Pinterest or Instagram, we’ve opted for a more subtle and clean look. This means you can easily integrate some delightful tablescaping into your everyday life, instead of just special occasions. And let’s be real; who doesn’t need a little more easy delight these days?

A quick Google search of tablescapes will tell (and show you) that you need many elements to pull off something beautiful, and that is just not the case.

It goes without saying that at Pokoloko, we believe less is more, especially when it comes to living a luxuriously sustainable life. With a creative mind and only a few great items, any of our hand towels or turkish towels can also be used to outfit your table.

Here’s where to start:

  • Glassware/Dishware
  • A linen
  • A centrepiece

… And that’s it!

 

Simple Everyday Tablescapes

Let’s begin with your dishware.

You want to work with what you have, and build the rest of your tablescape around your existing pieces.

Pairing your dishware with other beautiful items can give it new life and let you fall in love with it all over again.

You can then match a linen to your dishware.

It can add warmth, elegance and/or brighten up the other elements on your table.

There are so many different colours, textures and patterns to help you effortlessly make a statement or neutralize your setting.

Finally, a focal point.

We selected flowers and candlesticks for our centrepieces, but you could also use whatever you have on-hand.

Things like sculptures, potted plants, different sized ceramics, vases or a combination of any of those things will add height, colour and variety.

We combined the Sultan Hand Towel in Azure with some happy floral plates and sweet white carnations - perfect for brunch!

With the deep, moody tone of the Lined Diamond Hand Towel in Maroon, we tied everything together with some vintage wooden candlesticks and hotelware.

This made for a super cosy and intimate afternoon tea.

The neutral tone, pattern and texture of the Element Towel in Bluebell is a great palette for charcuterie and wine, which we accented, again, with candles and flowers.
