How to Place Charger Plates for Table Settings

Video Transcript

"Hi! My name is Isabel Ramirez. I'm from Wesley Chapel, Florida. On behalf of Expert Village, I'm here to show you how to set a dining room table. The next step in setting the table is placing the charger plates. Charger plates come in an array of colors and are purely decorative. They cannot be used to serve food or be used in the microwave for heating foods. Charger plates are to be placed under your fine china or dinner plates that you serve your Thanksgiving dinner on. They come in many different materials, sizes. These here are beautiful. They add a touch of gold for the Thanksgiving holiday and give you that extra class that sets aside the Thanksgiving dinner from any other dinner. Charger plates come in glass, plastic. I like to use the plastics here because when you have a lot of people over for the Thanksgiving holiday, you really just want to be careful with what you use. Basically, this is going to be used as a foundation to setup the rest of the plates for the Thanksgiving table and just add another touch of elegance for the holiday."
