Eucalyptus, Twine + Winter Fruit: 3 DIY Table Settings We Love

It’s a rare occasion when beautiful design and sustainability go hand in hand, and Local + Lejos is doing just that, providing gorgeous modern handmade goods made by artisans around the world, that help to preserve cultural traditions, grow and empower small businesses, and create sustainable futures for their families. Using a few of our Local + Lejos favorites we’ve created these three beautiful and simple holiday table settings to try at home. If there was ever a time to deck out the table, Christmas is the occasion! Here are three looks we love using just the artisan goods, some seeded eucalyptus, a little twine and fresh winter fruit. We used Local + Lejos' hand block-printed linens from Jaipar, ceramics from Oaxaca, and woven trays and baskets from Rwanda by the Kwizera Cooperative. Each purchase made through Local + Lejos directly advances the progress in their artisan partners’ lives--while providing us with these one-of-a kind design pieces that tell a story from every corner of the globe. Here are 3 DIY table settings to inspire and complete your holiday table…
