A Place at the Table For many busy families, coming together for dinner is a thing of the pastexcept during the holidays when we gather around the table for a special meal. ![]() The bottom line is to use only the utensils and plates that are functional and that fit the number of courses you plan to serve. For a typical holiday meal, try this informal setting. For a special touch, add printed menus, place cards and napkin rings. ![]() 1. Salad plate (can be placed in center of dinner plate or optionally to the left of the dinner napkin) 2. Napkin (can also be placed in the center of the dinner plate) 3. Salad fork (the smaller-sized fork) 4. Dinner fork 5. Dinner plate 6. Dinner knife 7. Teaspoon 8. Soup spoon (only if you're serving soup) 9. Bread & butter plate (optional but nice to have) 10. Water/Iced tea glass (usually placed at the tip of the knife) 11. Wine glass (optional, placed to the right at a slant to the water/iced tea glass) For more great ideas on putting together a beautiful table, go to Thanksgiving Table Décor. |
