6 Setting pretty

USE OUR HANDY GUIDE TO SET THE PERFECT TABLE THIS THANKSGIVING.

A. BREAD AND BUTTER Place the bread-and-butter plate and knife at top left, above the forks.

B. FORKS The order of your forks, from outside to in, is determined by the order of your meal, from start to finish.

C. PLATES Start with a charger or a dinner plate topped with a salad plate if salad will be served first.

D. STEMWARE Use crystal or glass in a grouping at top right. In this trio, a white wineglass, a red wineglass and a water goblet are placed for easy access during the meal.

E. SPOONS AND KNIFE The same rule as for the forks applies here: Work from the outside in, determined by the order of the meal.
