Christmas Table Setting Ideas
During the Christmas season, you can easily elevate your table settings by incorporating simple Christmas table decorations:
- For a beautiful centerpiece, utilize the candlesticks and candles you already own, but add Christmas decor such as garlands and miniature trees to bring in the holiday spirit.
- Start by setting your table with basic dinnerware, and switch out your placemat, charger, or salad plate to match the season.
- Use every day glasses and stemware, but add a color or patterned napkin to match this year’s Christmas decor.
- These products, combined, will create an elegant and classy atmosphere, perfect for entertaining guests this holiday season.
Simple Christmas Table Decorations to Try
1. Metallic Gold Charger Plates
Available in various colors, these lovely metallic charger plates come in a package of six. They will beautifully showcase your plate setting for the holidays!
2. Aforal Reach Touch Norfolk Pine Garland
This realistic garland would look beautiful streamed down the center of your table as a Christmas decoration. Pair it with a pretty tablecloth or runner to soften the look.
3. Gold Taper Candle Holders
Adding taper candle holders is a must, and these pretty gold candlestick holders will help you create a beautiful ambiance this Christmas.
4. Tapered Candles
If you add candle holders, you need candles! Tapered candles come in various colors. For a Christmas table, I love the look of white, ivory, green, brown, or taupe, which adds to your decorations.
5. Wooden Christmas Trees
I purchased these trees, which are an absolute must-have for anyone who wants to add elegance to their home decor. With their antique appearance, they’re the perfect addition to any room.
6. Unique Salad Plates
Adding a unique salad plate, whether it has intricate details or a full pattern, will add charm to your dining table. I love these white plates with a subtle design that gives them character.
7. Stainless Steel Silverware
This gold-plated stainless steel silverware set was one of my personal purchases a couple of years ago. They give your table a touch of elegance with the timeless design and gold accent.
8. Wine Glasses
Wine glasses are one of the basic dining essentials and will be used for years. If you want to save space, you can limit your wine glasses to one set, and these are a great option for both red and white wine.
9. Water Glasses
Like wine glasses, use your everyday water glasses when creating a tablescape. I love the rounded bottoms of these water glasses from Libbey.
10. Cloth Napkins
Add holiday-themed cloth napkins to each table setting, styled with a simple fold or knot. This type of Christmas decoration will give the table styling a finished touch.
11. Holiday Serving Pieces
It is nice to have at least one serving piece that is specific for the holidays. This plate and spreader set from Mud Pie is just what I am talking about!
