1. Take a walk: The most straightforward way of choosing a theme is to take a walk around your home and look for items that match. For example, a vase of roses and a painting of roses. These could be grouped together for a pretty setting. So the primary way to decide on a theme is to look at things available in the house that match each other.
2. Use your hobby: If you have any particular hobby or special interest, you can use it to decorate your table and put forward a brand new theme in front of your guests.
3. Colour code: Another common way of setting up a theme is to colour code the table. For a beach setting, you can use blue and white. For dinner at your home, warm and elegant colours like yellow or orange would do the job.
4. Holidays: If the dinner is on holiday, decorate the table depending on the holiday. For Christmas, green, gold and red colours would do the job. For Diwali, candles and Diyas can be added to the table.
5. Seasons: Seasons can be a significant theme as well. Adding season components as a theme to the table makes the table look elegant and beautiful. Fall and Spring as seasons provide many elements to add to the table setting.
6. Unique elements: If you own any special pieces in the house, for instance, a unique heirloom or table cloth or cutlery, then add a few items that go along with it, and you have a table theme decided.
7. Beautiful Napkins: Beautiful and various napkins can serve as inspiration in
