Christmas is a holiday we traditionally celebrate with family and friends. This year though, for most of us it will mean smaller gatherings at home. It’s especially important to find ways to celebrate The Holidays because of the pandemic. Albeit smaller and more intimate, a festive table setting will always be appreciated by your guests.
Whether going all out or keeping it simple, this is the occasion to express your creativity with items you may already own. A mix of plain and patterned plates is a tried & true stylish touch that brings panache to each place setting. Have the tablecloth be your foundation to pull those varied elements together, along with contrasting placemats and napkins.
Continue the festive mood with a seasonal poinsettia or two, along with shimmering tea-lights strategically placed on the table to add a glamorous glow. Fill your special-occasion only champagne bucket or a large planter with ice and a bottle of whatever you’ll be serving with dinner - another step to elevating your table-scape. Think about dining in a new location if space allows, like setting up a small table in the living room for a cozy gathering.
At home casual chic, embellished with a touch of brocade or velvet completes the festive vibe. Let the festivities begin and make this year’s Holiday special and one to remember.
Thanks so much for following me throughout this quite extraordinary this year!! Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays - see you in 2021✨💚✨

The napkin ring is the jewel in the crown of any table setting. In this instance the playful enamel multi-colored mahout elephant informs the color scheme for my Holiday table. Chinoise Blue fine china dinner plate by Mottahedeh
