3. Layered Linen Runner with Stacked Ceramic Plates & Trailing Beads
What You Need
- A raw-edge, neutral beige linen table runner
- A stack of 3 handmade ceramic dinner plates in varying cream glazes
- A wooden prayer bead garland with a natural jute tassel
- A single sculptural ceramic knot or orb
How to Make It
- Lay the raw-edge linen runner centered along the length of the table, letting the ends drape naturally.
- Stack the handmade ceramic plates neatly in the exact center of the runner.
- Drape the wooden bead garland artfully across the plate stack, letting the tassel spill over the edge of the table.
- Place the sculptural ceramic knot neatly on top of the uppermost plate.
Tips & Variations
- Tip: Iron the linen runner lightly on low heat before styling if you prefer a crisp look, or leave it naturally wrinkled for casual charm.
- Variation: Swap the ceramic plates for an oversized, low-profile wooden platter.
