Tablescaping: What is it, how do I do it?

Creating a beautiful table design using wildflowers is a great way to bring the beauty of nature into your home , or outdoor dining table. At Nomadic our tables are adorned with sustainable flowers and foliage, showcasing the seasons.

Whether you’re hosting a dinner party, a brunch, or a casual get-together, a wildflower centerpiece can add a touch of elegance and whimsy to your table. Here are some tips for creating a beautiful table design using wildflowers:

1. Choose your flowers: Wildflowers come in various colours and shapes, so choose a mix of blooms that complement each other. Look for flowers that are in season and grow in your area. Some popular wildflowers to consider include sunflowers, daisies, Queen Anne’s lace, wild roses, and goldenrod.

2. Gather your materials: In addition to your flowers, you will need some basic materials to create your centrepiece. You will need a vase or container to hold your flowers, floral foam or a frog to hold the flowers in place, and some greenery or filler to add texture and volume to your arrangement.

3. Create your arrangement by filling your vase or container with water. If you use floral foam or a frog, fill it in the vase with water. Begin by adding your greenery or filler to the vase, and arranging it to create a loose, organic shape. Then add your flowers, starting with the largest blooms and working your way down to the smaller ones. Mix up the colours and textures of your flowers to create an interesting and varied arrangement.

4. Add the finishing touches: Once you’re happy with your arrangement, add some finishing touches to your table design. Consider adding candles, place settings, or other decorative elements complementing your wildflower centrepiece. Use a tablecloth or runner that complements the colours of your flowers, or opt for a neutral palette to let your centrepiece take center stage.

Creating a beautiful table design using wildflowers is a simple yet stunning way to add a touch of natural beauty to your home. With a little creativity and some basic materials, you can create a centrepiece that will wow your guests and make your table feel extra special.

At Nomadic, our tables follow the seasons and the edible landscape we find ourselves in. We work with the lovely Ash at The Nagundo Tree on many tablescapes.
