TABLE DECORATIONS FOR THE CHRISTMAS TABLE
There is something deliciously heartwarming about sharing a feast at a festive dining table, reflecting on the past twelve months, and sharing your hopes and dreams for the new year. Ensure your table makes the perfect setting for these precious moments with Christmas table decorations that tell your unique festive story. CB2's Holiday Collection is full of festive cheer for the dining room, and with the right tablescape know-how, you'll be ready to sprinkle a little magic across your Holiday table.
The festive fundamentals
Before you get carried away with the grand Christmas table centrepiece and sprigs of holly, make sure you have the festive fundamentals to hand. A successful tablescape needs foundational pieces that subtly but effectively create a sense of occasion. Whether you prefer a crisp tablecloth or like to keep your beautiful tabletop on display, a Christmas table runner effortlessly upgrades your tablescape.
For satisfying style cohesion, you can match your place settings to your Christmas tablecloth or runner through complementary tones or patterns. To bring your Christmas table setting ideas to life, cloth napkins, matching napkin rings, elegant flatware, dinnerware, serveware, and glassware are essential for that polished finish. Explore CB2's Holiday Entertaining range to find just what you need.
Classic and cosy
If you've been watching classic Christmas movies for months, a mug of cocoa in hand, you may have aspirations for a decidedly classic and cosy festive dining table. By introducing deep reds, golds, and jewel tones to your tabletop, you can conjure the cocooning ambience of a flickering fire and traditional Christmas day table decorations. Think gilded dinner plates, brushed gold cutlery, red ceramic and glass decorative accents, and jewel-toned glassware and serveware.
For a complete sensory experience, introduce botanical festive table decorations like evergreen branches along the runner, aromatic rosemary and cinnamon sticks tucked into napkin rings, and bowls overflowing with clove-studded oranges. To tie this charming tablescape together - an abundance of candles. From tea lights in glass holders to lanterns and a Christmas centrepiece candelabra, set your dining room aglow with soft, peachy candlelight.
Modern metallics
The alluring lustre of gold, copper, bronze, and silver deserves a place on the festive tablescape. Set among candles or warm-white twinkle lights, metallic serving platters, flatware, and decorative accents will set your tabletop twinkling. Accentuate this enchanting effect with cut-glass drinkware, from sophisticated water glasses to glamourous cocktail glasses and decanters. CB2 also offers a range of contemporary metallic festive table decorations, from decorative orbs to gold bay leaf garlands.
If you want your Christmas table to make a statement, why not pair your metal notes with a deep granite black, navy, or rich chocolate tone? These colour palettes help your metallic hues pop and create a wonderfully intimate, lavish modern ambience.
The Holiday season is full of sentiment, but it's also about fun. Embrace the Christmas spirit and add a dash of childlike wonder to your tablescape with a cute ceramic alpine house, a glittering reindeer, a cluster of tree baubles, or a collection of adorable carved wooden festive figures. Keeping the fun fashionable, CB2's Holiday Décor edit is brimming with artisanal accents for a very merry Christmas table.
