Decorative Table Setting Ideas

Hi Sweet Friends!
The Holidays are upon us and Thanksgiving is just a week away! Setting a nice looking table is part of our families own Holiday Tradition since my Grandmother's delightful table presentations. She always laid out the fine china, linen and crystal with a beautiful centerpiece that tied it all together. And I was the lucky one to inherit two of her many china sets that I use in my home to this day. I will be passing them down to my own grandchildren when they have families of their own. 
 
The Emily Post Institute has some great advice on Table Setting here:  http://emilypost.com/advice/table-setting-guides/

I found some photos of my table settings I wanted to share with you. It is good to know how to set a table and I have included some personal diagrams for assistance at the bottom of this post.
