Community Eye Candy: Table Settings

August 5th, 2014

Every so often, I like to browse projects that Ravelers make for daily use in their homes. For today’s Eye Candy I did a search for recently completed table settings. If you click on that search you can imagine how hard it was for me to choose just a few for this post, but here are some of my favorites!

DebbieB‘s Handwoven Rainbow Candy Napkins, Knapknits‘ May Flowers napkin rings, and cardigansin‘s Hexagon Table Runner would make any table more cheerful.

I love the classic neutrals in mydonath‘s Platzsets, Sivani‘s Theresa, and marydargie‘s Projects at Dawn’s 2014.

Finally, arkie‘s Mary Ann Ostrander Overshot Towels, paophoo‘s Black Table Center, and knapknits‘ Montague (which would coordinate so nicely with her napkin rings, featured above!), seem almost too pretty to use – but of course, that’s the joy of making gorgeous yet practical things: really using them!

Lovely work, all of you – thank you so much for sharing your projects on Ravelry! I just love the thought of these handmade personal touches adding beauty to mealtimes around the world. (I’m also preemptively outraged on behalf of you all in anticipation of the day these beautiful projects are spilled upon.)
