A dining table full of colour

Don’t have that much space on the table? Then you can also choose to put a beautiful piece next to the table. For example, in the windowsill, on a pillar or on a stool. This way you still have a beautiful decoration, but you can still easily see each other. And it leaves enough room for the food!
