As special Christmas can get, so does the Christmas table setting. The dining table during Christmas is a special place as you enjoy your Christmas dinner. It only makes sense that the tabletop matches the rest of your decorations. You can make your Christmas table ready with Homesmiths’s Christmas kitchenware & tableware collection to brighten up the dinner table into a lively space matching the Xmas mood.
What are the rules of a Christmas table setting?
There are some traditional rules for a Christmas table setting, such as matching the colors and patterns, using a centerpiece, candles, and place cards. Some intricate rules apply to the placement of flatware and cutlery. However, if you follow the basics, you’re all up for creativity while setting up the Christmas table decorations. Add some Christmas decorations concealed in transparent containers or on holders to add a charm.
How to choose your Christmas table decorations?
To make your Christmas dining setup nice, firstly make sure the Christmas table setting matches the rest of the decoration theme in your house. If you have chosen a traditional theme, make sure your table reflects the same. If you’ve gone for a minimalist theme or a whimsical theme, ensure that the table decorations do not look out of place when set against the rest of the decorations. There are some elements that form a part of the Christmas table decorations, like a Christmas table runner, a table cloth, a centerpiece decoration, place cards, and Christmas serving ware like Christmas cups, plates, crockery, trays, glassware, bowls, pots, potholders, and gloves, etc. If you are going for a classic look, don’t forget to include lacy napkins, ornate napkin holders, and candleholders with candles to set up a proper Christmas table. Your Christmas pudding and turkey would never look better than on a table setting made right!
How to choose a centerpiece for a Christmas table setting?
A centerpiece of the Christmas table should be your primary focus once you lay down the tablecloth, table runners, and table mats. These things form the base for your further decorations and tableware. You can go for a simple looking centerpiece or an elaborate one accentuated by other Christmas table decorations strewn across the dining table. Traditionally, flowers and foliage are used with candles and baubles for making a centerpiece. It could be a dessert rack or a chocolate fountain with layers of decorations added to it. Or it could be a grand candle holder with mini trees, trinkets and Christmas knick-knacks decorated around it. Ultimately, it should match the rest of the setup and not look separate from the rest of the tabletop. A nice centerpiece would blend in with the rest of the Christmas kitchenware & tableware.
