Design Pataki: Tablescaping must-haves 

Eeshaan Kashyap: My tablescaping must-haves definitely include lots of colour, flowers, candles, good company and energy. For me every meal is special and that sets up the ingredients for a happy tablescape. It must be your own style. Make it personal.

Design Pataki: 3 styling elements that can instantly uplift a table-setting

Eeshaan Kashyap:- Elevations on a table, could be in the form of vases, candle stands. 

– Tapering candles, instantly makes you fall in love with the table. At least 20 inches of height. 

– A pop dinner napkin. Even the dullest tables can be shaken up with a sprinkle of colour with the help of a dinner napkin. My go-to store for getting these is the Second Floor Studio in Delhi.

Design Pataki: Go-to flowers/natural elements to keep a tablescape fresh and exciting 

Eeshaan Kashyap: I love using elephant grass and the lotus leaves of a dinner table. It adds a bit of drama to the table and is super easy to source. Lately, I have been using a lot of rocks on the table that I use as a base for candles. It’s simple and very rock solid for a conversation “starter“.
