Steal of the Day: JCPenney Hemstitch Table Linens
Even if you don't entertain often, every home should have a classic and simple set of table linens, for the occasion that guests drop by and to nudge you to actually sit down and enjoy your brunch every Sunday morning. If you've inherited some antique linens, that's wonderful, but you may want to keep them in good shape for parties. There's no need to drop big bucks on your tabletop, especially when the JCPenney Hemstitch Table Linens ($12-$27, 50% off) are so affordable.
Love It or Hate It? Larch Table Cloth
While I love the Larch bedding, something about the business of this pattern makes it seem a little too frantic for a table. Still, there's no denying that the Unison Larch Table Cloth ($90-$110), will catch a guest's eye. Whether the final verdict is positive or negative, though, it's anybody's guess.

Deck the Haus: Henry Road Gloria Table Cloth
Since at least half of you use table cloths on holidays and special occasions, I hope you'll appreciate this Henry Road Gloria Table Cloth ($115-$165). Obviously the crimson color mixed with some greenery would be perfect for Christmas, but the floral pattern works well year round. Just throw in some pink napkins for an intended clash, and your table will be ready for summer.
Do You Use Table Cloths?
There are so many wonderful table designs nowadays, sometimes it's almost a shame to use table cloths. In other cases, table cloths are an easy way to hide a piece of furniture that's seen better days, and a simple way to perk up a plain room.

Etsy Finds: Sophisticated Cloth Napkins
I'm a big enthusiast of white table linens. With a basic backdrop, you can be flexible with your other dinner party décor, changing up your palettes and patterns to make each party special. That said, you'll need to bring in color and flair with napkins, napkin rings, flowers, and serving dishes.
Casa Quickie: Cleaning Soot
If your fireplace's brick surface is marred by a thick layer of soot, here's one nontoxic way to deal with it. Just mix up an ounce of soap with an ounce of table salt. Mix with enough water to make a cream and then rub it onto the brick's surface with a cloth.
Casa Interview: The Good Wife's Stephen Hendrickson and Beth Kushnick
As I've mentioned in the past, I'm a huge fan of the new CBS series The Good Wife. In particular, I adore Alicia Florrick's (Julianna Margulies) apartment. With classic styling and great use of color, it's definitely a look I'm currently coveting.
Etsy Find: Cactus Picnic Napkin Set
If a cactus could ever look cute, JackRabbit has devised a means to that end with the Cactus Picnic Napkin Set, a set of four 10-by-12-inch handmade napkins screen printed with a grid of perky green cacti. I can't think of a better occasion to debut these prickly succulents than a backyard barbecue — or perhaps a Park(ing) Day picnic. While the weather is still warming up here in San Francisco, temperatures are turning chilly elsewhere, so you'd better snatch these babies up fast and throw some T-bones on the grill.
Casa Verde: Graduate to Cloth Napkins
Even some of my more grown-up friends are still using paper napkins (or — gasp — paper towels) for everyday dining. If you're among them, it's time to upgrade to some real table linens, which are both more sophisticated and better for the environment.
For weeknight dinners, don't worry about buying anything fancy.
Cool Idea: Books by the Foot
I am on a never-ending quest to expand my home library, and fortunately my home is small enough that I'm not plagued with any bare bookcases giving guests the illusion that I'm illiterate. But, if I did live in a sprawling space with lots of storage, why not fill those built-ins with books? Enter Wonder Book, which sells books by the foot.
