A final aspect of supporting display material is height. A long, flat-surfaced, one level table is boring. Give the buffet dimension by building up some of the areas. By using wooden boxes or bulk milk cartons covered with linen, the table can take on the added dimension of height. High and low stainless steel or silver serving dishes can also be used for height variance. Remember to achieve a balanced look when using height the linen used to cover the boxes should be the same as the linen used on the table. White is the traditional color because it give a clean appearance and enhance the food. However, other colors can be used to tie in with the décor of the room. Make sure that the color selected does not detract from the food served.
