I have always wanted to do cloth napkins with rings, what other ideas can I implement that aren't too costly?

I got cheap napkin rings from Amazon and use with fancy paper napkins.
I also use wipeable vinyl chargers from Amazon.

Flowers (real or fake). I get one bouquet and split it into smaller vases spread across the table so it’s cheap but gives a nice touch to the table

My pesach table is mostly white - tablecloth and dishes are solid white. So I bought rose colored wine glasses and rose colored cloth Napkins and it looked so elegant.

I don't use any disposables, my husband's extremely hypersensitive about gebrokts. So it's all white and silver with real china with deep red roses. Looks stunning

Oh, that too! I have faux flowers in 3 short vases that I use for Pesach.

My Pesach china has both silver and gold tones so that whatever I use on the table matches. Every year, I'm once again excited to see it!
(I love Pesach if you can't tell!)

What do disposable dishes have to do with gebrokts?

I love getting bold, elegant disposable plasticware. (With coordnating cutlery and napkins) It makes the table look so special with the look of China without investing in a stately style that I might not love forever.
I also do smaller bouquets (fake flowers) along the table.
We make fancy name cards that coordinate with the look, and pull it all together.
Sometimes I’ll buy a new tablecloth to step it up a notch. I LOVE having a beautiful Pesach table.

My usual color scheme is white and gold and silver as this matches my crockery and other Seder paraphernalia. I add in lots of greenery and flowers for spring. Last year my biggest upgrade though, was a 3d kriyat yam suf scene including the seabed,waves, benei Yisrael and mitzrim that could be arranged in anyway in the middle of the table. (In previous years we used Playmobil etc) It may not have perfectly coordinated with my color scheme but it kept the kids entertained for hours reenacting yetziat mitzaim and really enhanced the Seder.

Yeah, that's specifically why we do disposables, so if something got matzah crumbs accidentally it won't come back into the kitchen.
(I guess it's better this way. Otherwise I'd need to buy a Pesach dishwasher to survive.)

We also like to use plastic for reasons of gebrokhs. Just throw out, no chance of matzo being on the plate. I wonder what she meant by specifically using china

A nice runner really enhances the table.

We don't use plastic, and only use white or glass dishes on Pesach. So that's pretty boring.
We also don't buy real flowers since we don't know if it was around chometz while growing etc.
We get lots of real silver items, glass decanters for wine, Kareh and matching matza tashens, a big silver cup for Eliyahu, Pretty centerpiece holders for the silverware, a big glass matza box for the center of the table etc.
It ends up looking royal even without much color.
