Decorate Your Table Creatively With Tablemats

Creative ways to decorate your table

• Layers: To create a layering effect on the table, use several placemats of different sizes and colours. For example, start with a larger linen tablemat and place a smaller cork backed one on top to give depth to the table.
• Colours and patterns: Choose placemats with colours and patterns that match your dining table theme. You can opt for a classic, elegant or modern style, depending on your preferences.
• Textures: Choose placemats with interesting textures, such as embroidery, fabrics or with ornaments. This will add a sense of dimension to the table and make it look much more interesting. In case you want a special visual sort of texture, cork backed placemats are the perfect solution. That’s why we want to present the pimpernel placemats, they offer you lots of designs and sizes so you can choose the one that best suits what you are looking for.
• Mix and match: Combine different placemats to create a custom table. Don’t be afraid to mix different colours, patterns and textures. If you have various placemats that you like, you can swap them around to change the appearance of the table.
• Minimalist style: If you prefer a minimalist style, opt for simple placemats in neutral tones, such as white, grey or beige. This elegant and simple option will allow you to decorate the table in a subtle way.
• Rustic style: If you prefer a rustic style, choose placemats made of natural fibres, such as jute or linen fabric. These tablecloths will give your table a cosy and warm feeling.
• Theme decoration: If you are celebrating a special occasion, such as Christmas or Halloween, choose placemats that fit the theme of the celebration. For example, The Spode Christmas Tree placemats from Pimpernel or the festive themed Penguin Parade tablemats by Plymouth Pottery.
