Table decoration
Use linen tablecloths and napkins for an elegant and sophisticated look. Choose a neutral canvas combined with colorful tones for a summery atmosphere.
Add even more color and ambiance to the table by presenting fruit in bowls. Choose seasonal fruits like juicy berries, sweet peaches, and fresh lemons. Strategically place the bowls around the table to give a playful and colorful accent. The fruit not only serves as decoration but can also be a refreshing addition to your drink or a healthy dessert.
