It’s time to set the table!

I always find it interesting to understand the thought processes of decorators and designers, and to hear what goes through their brains as their creations come to life. How do they troubleshoot and overcome hurdles? I often come away from the experience with a light bulb moment of my own, or something is brought to my attention that I may not have even considered previously. It’s part of my natural curiosity, which has served me well over the years.

There are lots of other ideas that probably could have worked, and I would love to hear your suggestions on what you would have done. My focus was working with as much of what I have more then anything else. If I had a crazy amount of votives, I think they could have been fun on the table as well, but it worked out alright as is.
