Mason Jar Beverage Dispensers For cold coffee, sweet tea, fruit-infused water, juice, and more —you can't go wrong with a beverage dispenser outfitted in wicker or rattan (which looks stunning on display for both casual family gatherings or formal entertaining). Though this piece may not sit directly on the table (and most likely on your sideboard instead) – it's an effortless way to keep drinks within an arm's reach, without making extra trips to the kitchen for refills. Family Heirlooms For a graceful tablescape that's equally as meaningful, consider adding your family treasures. This can go beyond fine china and crystal glassware, too! Think: antique dining chairs, religious artifacts, handmade pottery, flatware, and linens — all connecting your dining experience to your family's story and traditions. Napkin Rings No matter how you love to fold your napkins, napkin rings add a charming, practical touch to your tablescape design. Best part: unlike disposable napkins, you can wash and reuse your napkins indefinitely with proper care. Add a Monogram Monogramming adds an elegant, personalized touch to any piece, giving it an heirloom-like quality. So whether this includes chic glasses, serving trays, linens, salt and pepper shakers, pitchers, or bread baskets – this addition brings high style and tradition to your table (morphing these pieces into lovely heirlooms you can pass down for generations, too). Place Card Holders Try adding personal touches like handwriting name tags for each of your guests, which can be a thoughtful, caring gesture! Adding tiny details like this can also make your guests feel more special and connected to the experience.
