This is how you decorate your Christmas table

Start with an elegant tablecloth: A beautifully set table starts with the basics. Choose a tablecloth that matches your Christmas vibe, whether it’s winter white, classic red, or festive gold. This creates the perfect base for everything else you add.

Green as a natural touch: Bring nature indoors by adding some greenery to your table. Think pine branches, eucalyptus, or a mix of both. Scatter them casually in the centre of the table for a playful effect.

Decorate with Christmas baubles: Christmas baubles aren’t just for the tree! Place a few shiny or matte baubles among the greenery on the table or arrange them on the plates. Mix different sizes and colours for a festive touch.

Napkins as eye-catchers: Fold napkins in a special way, like a star or bow, and place them on or next to each plate. You can also decorate them with a sprig of greenery or a ribbon for a luxurious look.

Create height with candles and decorations above the table: Place candles in different heights to create a warm and cosy atmosphere. Go one step further by hanging decorations above the table, such as a branch with lights or hanging poinsettias. This is how to make your Christmas table truly memorable!
