March 23, 2012/ kaitlyn

Napkin etiquete 101. Did you know when folding a cloth napkin correctly you will be able to open the napkin like a book? Correct but not very exciting. Check out how 2 friends wrapped their silver. Know any napkin origami? Share it!

Just like grandmother’s friend, Taffy, who wore a mink over her nightdress to pick up the paper every morning, we like to add a little fancy to our everyday routine. Here at the Hen’s blog we will share our musings and inspirations for gracious living everyday.

Don't take my word for it. A member of the Roost shared this thought, "I started using cloth napkins in the spring. Agree! It made our family dinners more civilized! And, using cloth versus disposable is a greener way of setting the table." #getcivilized #gogreen

I’m pushing THIS hard this new year: “The most important thing you can do with your kids”, says the Washington Post. “Eat dinner with them.” #familydinner #raisingchildren #gathering #healthy #resolutions

Merry and bright! #henry #lotsofroomforsanta

In the theme of cleverly placed runners. Not just for the dining table! #textile #color #holidaydecor

One table. Lots of looks. "So easy to change the whole look of the room!" Thanks, Grace V., for sharing. #inspiration #tabletop #changeitup #homestartsatthetable

Can't get enough of these clever runner uses from @laralyncarter ! Tree skirt, extra texture down the table (see what she did?), and mantle! #greatdecor #kitchenfun #newtraditions

All you need for a scrumptious holiday and a shout out to our favorite mitt are in these pages @tasteofthesouthmagazine #happyholidays #goodeats #cookies #kitchenfun

Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours. A special "thank you" to @laralyncarter for this warm and inviting table. Now, don't eat too much, Turkey! #seewhatididthere ? #laralyn #thanksgivingtable #gather #keepaneyeonauntbetty

This might be one of my all-time favorite place holders ginned up by our creative director, Katherine Bird Poole. #setalovelytable #nameinlights #placesetting #seatatthetable #gather #simpleisgood
