Rustic Placemats

Rustic Placemats: Get in Touch with the Countryside

Bring a touch of the countryside home with rustic placemats. For a classic farmhouse feel, dress the dining table with white dinnerware and polished flatware on round placemats. To make the room pop, add a colorful tablecloth beneath a centerpiece bowl stocked with fresh fruit. If you want an earthy feel in your dining room, consider a leaf-shaped placemat on a natural wood table instead. Present a feast to your guests on acacia trays and serving bowls. Then, top it off with a metal branch candle holder intertwined with leafy botanicals in earthenware vases. Looking to add rugged texture to your home? Grace your dining room with thick woven placemats, and hone in on an industrial feel with a metal-top dining table below black iron ceiling lamps. For a casual mood in the kitchen, set a bistro table with colorful dinnerware and glass drinkware on rustic placemats. Corral forks, knives and spoons in a ceramic crock, then finish the look by adding salt and pepper shakers and a napkin holder to the center. When entertaining outdoors, consider using machine-washable mats for an easy cleanup option. Keep the party rolling with durable acrylic drinkware and melamine dinnerware.
