Your Table
If you're following our daily tips to help you stay organized, today we recommend you organize your table linens and count your silverware if you're hosting any big meals in the next two weeks.
Another helpful hint: our how-to-set-a-table graphic. Lots of good info here.
I'm hosting two dinners in the next week. I hope to check on table linens, silverware and serving pieces tonight and also start writing my grocery shopping lists. Anything else? Let me know.

When you're assembling tabletop things, don't forget trivets and coasters to protect the surface from heat and moisture.
You may also want to check your candle supply, remove stray wax from candlesticks and choose vases for flowers.

You can also put candles in the freezer and they will burn slower...
