If you have wondered how to set a dinner table when entertaining guests, here are three easy steps for doing so!

Step 1  

Get the basics. These consist of the main dinner plate and the drinking glass. Set the dinner plate in front of the chair (center it)and place the drinking glass on the right side of the plate accordingly.

 

Step 2  

Add to the dinner plate a napkin placed in the center of the plate. You are also going to add a small bread plate with a knife placed inside of it horizontally to the upper left corner of the dinner plate.

 

Step 3  

Add the silver. Here is where it gets tricky with adding the silver. Place your three forks on the left side of the dinner plate (salad fork, meal fork, and fish fork). Above the plate goes the dessert fork facing west and the soup spoon facing east. And last, but not least, is the dinner knife on the right side of the plate and the butter knife following.

 

Step 4  

Place the dinner knife on the right side of the plate and the butter knife following.

Step 5  

Serve your guests and have a great time.
