The dining table is the most widely used furniture in many of our homes.
Some people prefer the vintage dining tables carrying the legacy from parents, and Some prefer the latest glass tables to add a stylish look to a home.
We all prefer dining tables in our homes, even though we do not use them at times.
When it comes to organizing the dining table, we least bother about it, unless someone steps into the house and we feel terrible!
We can put this dining table to a correct use to avoid storage problem in our kitchens.
So, I’ve curated a simple list few tips for this blog post on how to organize the dining table. These tips help you to make your dining table ready for every day without creating a mess.
No matter, how big or small your dining table is, always prefer only placing the essentials on it. It allows you to use the space and also makes it look cool.
Essentials for Dining Table Organization :
1. Table Mats :
Table Mats are used to place our plates while eating and also to protect the table from food stains.
These table mats also add a color pop to the table, available with various designs and multiple shapes. Try to replace these table mats once a month to decorate your dining table.
2. Water Jug
We are too lazy to bring a small glass of water from the kitchen while we are chilling on Netflix. So it is always a good idea to have a water jug filled on your dining table.
It is also okay if you have your dining table near your kitchen, it always helps you grab water real quick when someone’s in suddenly.
3. Fruits Tray
All of us should agree, we forget to eat what is healthy and we complain about everything that happens to us.
It is really important to eat fruits to keep ourselves healthy. Place a fruit tray on the dining table, so that we will be reminded of fruits while roaming around the house.
Make sure you also keep it clean away from the flies.
4. Salt & Pepper Shaker
While you’re having that pizza ordered online, or a pickle that you prepared, You need salt/pepper/sugar/ghee at the dining table any time.
Make sure you use these small shakers to keep them handy just like a water jug.
This allows you not to disturb yourself while having your meals.
5. Table Runners
Table runners are just like carpets in our homes, this stops tables from moving to and fro while eating.
Also, it adds color to your dining area.
6. Hot Pots
Prefer using some hot stands or pots to place hot items while serving.
It protects the table surface by stopping the direct heat contact to the table.
7. Tea/Coffee Bags
No matter what the time it is, we always need tea or coffee at any time.
If you’re a coffee person or tea person, have some bags placed on the table to mix it anytime. Have a kettle by your side too if you prefer drinking lemon tea or green tea.
8. Place a CenterPiece
Placing a centerpiece on the dining table brings a pleasant look to the dining table. Prefer a flower vase or a showpiece that adds good vibes to your home.
If you’re not using the dining table, this centerpiece can be placed alone leaving the place to be decorative.
9. CandleHolder
Who doesn’t love candle light dinners!
Add a candle holder by your side on the table and use it whenever required to tune your dining table into your favorite place.
10. Lazy Susan
Lazy Susan helps you to grab that pickle instantly in the middle of your lunch or dinner.
You can also use a variety of trays to have all the pickles in one place on the dining table.
While you may feel the list is all you knew already, it is perfect.
But, if it seems overwhelming, let me also tell you why I’ve curated this list.
Due to the excessive stuff available offline & online stores, we tend to buy everything and leave them after a few days. This makes leaving the wanted stuff and using the fluffy stuff making our homes messy.
So, I really feel that there is an immense need to use only essentials and make our space clean and clear. Mention in the comments if you use any other essentials to save a moment!
Happy Organizing!
