Table Toppers: Designer Tip

You've got a beautiful table, a set of plates, silverware, and chairs that you've just reupholstered...but something is still missing.  A little texture or the unexpected can make your table setting wow your guests.
A little wooden stool - perhaps found at a flea market or antique store, gives a little height to a vase.

Stone flooring tiles add texture as an unusual table mat.

Glass vases filled with rope add a textured, nautical feel.

Branches.  You can leave them natural or spray paint them a bold, glossy color.

Fruit and veggies have always been a popular choice, 
but fill tall cylinder vases with it and you'll add a little more drama to the table.

Have you tried any usual table decor?
