How can I decorate my Christmas table?

Decorating your Christmas table is a fun and festive task that will truly set the scene for the day.

Start with a nice tablecloth to protect your table from spills, or otherwise, a table runner to act as a base for all of your delicious meals. 

Dinnerware is important so this is your chance to whip out the ‘nice plates’ or at the very least give your tried and true a good polish! 

Finally, some decorations and statement centrepieces like florals, candles or even natural elements like branches help pull together the full look.

When it comes down to it, it is all up to personal style and there is no right or wrong. So use this opportunity to get your creative juices flowing and enjoy it. 

How to decorate a small dining table for Christmas?

Decorating a small dining table for Christmas can be charming and cosy. Start with a smaller tablecloth or runner to fit the table’s size and choose compact, festive dinnerware and use smaller plates and utensils to maximize space.

Opt for a compact centrepiece like a miniature Christmas tree, florals in your favourite vase, or a few candles in festive holders.

You can hang some string lights or small ornaments above the table for added holiday flair. Keep the decorations minimal to make the most of your space while still creating a festive Christmas atmosphere.
