We caught up with our founder Nikki Tibbles to talk tablescaping tips at her Sussex home.


Here are  Nikki's ten simple tips to help you entertain like a pro...

1. Always measure to make sure the vases are in the centre of the table.

2.Make sure your candles are straight. Cut the wicks before you light them.

3.Make sure your flowers have had a really good drink before putting them into vases. Top up the water everyday.

4.Make sure the flower is the right proportion to the vase. Big flower- big vase! Small flower-small vase.

5.Natural dye napkins add real charm to the table.

6.A pink theme is fun for lunch with friends or alfresco dining.

7.Grey adds elegance and is perfect for evening entertaining.

8.Earthy tones like wild green and brass always work well together.

9.Think about scent. I always like to choose scented flowers like sweet peas and roses to add a little something extra.

10.Candles play such an important part in table design. I like to fill my dining table with candlesticks and tealights to create an atmosphere. 

Plus everyone looks good by candlelight!

Enjoy! x
