The everyday base
- A low vase or bowl as the centrepiece.
- Candles in odd numbers.
- Keep it low so people can see each other across the table.
Round tables
Use one central arrangement. A single vase of branches or a wide bowl suits a 120cm or 150cm round table.
Long and oval tables
Use a linen runner with a line of small vases or candles, or two smaller arrangements spaced along the table.
Seasonal ideas
- Spring: fresh blossom branches and light linen.
- Summer: citrus in a bowl and native foliage.
- Autumn: dried grasses and warm-toned ceramics.
- Winter: candles, eucalyptus and textured napkins.
For choosing the table itself, see round vs rectangular tables.
