Elegant Holiday Tablescape in Under 15 Minutes

December 12, 2022
  • Share

I am a firm believer that the holidays are all about family, friends, and traditions. But that doesn’t mean you can’t add a little sparkle to your holiday tablescape too. The best way to design an elegant holiday tablescape as quickly as possible is by planning ahead.

My tablescape style is all about combining the staples with the unexpected…and that sometimes includes holiday flare. The art of setting the table focuses on using practical pieces that are also beautiful. With a little thoughtful planning and a few timeless pieces, anyone can execute an elegant holiday tablescape.

Pick A Color Palette & Prioritize Texture

For this holiday table, I knew I was working with a muted color palette. I didn’t want to add a white or cream tablecloth because I wanted my table to have some charm. If you don’t have textured placemats then find a unique tablecloth that has earthy woven textures. It adds warmth to your table without ruining a muted color palette. It’s effective and budget-friendly. Sticking with a neutral color palette can make the styling process go so much smoother. Less time having to edit and switch out dishware because it clashes with the napkins.

Your Home Staples

I have a collection of dinnerware and serveware stored in my cabinets. I even have a box full of decorative accents that I can pull out for different occasions. So don’t bother trying to find the latest and greatest dinnerware set. You probably have everything that you need at home. Search your dinner sets, silverware, glassware, and other serving essentials to see what is functional for a holiday. You never know what you might find in the back of your closet!

When I have time, one of my favorite things is finding vintage pieces at estate sales and flea markets. These timeless pieces add the right amount of charm.

Decorative Holiday Flair

It’s easy to be festive with floral arrangements! I always love adding fresh flowers to my tablescape. It’s an easy trick to add color and elevate the table. During the holiday season, greenery is always the right choice. Berry bouquets are popular for the holiday season because they brighten up every table without being too bold. Use whatever is available at home including dried roses, pine leaves, pine cones, pomegranates, and even fresh herbs—no need to add more shopping to your already packed list.

However, if you feel like your table is missing something, then now is the time to shop for festive decor. Most retailers have already discounted their holiday collections including Pottery Barn, Sur La Table, and Target.

    Absolutely loved this post. I got inspired by it. I recently joined a company named Mehndi PVC that does everything with PVC. Thanks for your posts, I definitely got some new ideas.

Last weekend I started my spring cleaning project. Last weekend I started my spring cleaning project. I still have some more things to clean. I organized my garage it looks so much better. I always feel better when things are clean and organized. I hate that I have all of this stuff. I’ve collected different items over the years from flipping a house, product line, samples, and outdoor dinner party accessories. Too much stuff! I’m glad most of it is organized now. Maybe it’s time for a garage sale?? Did you start any spring cleaning projects?

Here’s a beautiful kitchen for some inspiration. Here’s a beautiful kitchen for some inspiration. A historic Washington D.C. townhouse fully gutted & renovated. The matte black and white floors adds some drama. While the off white cabinets and the oak island makes the kitchen feel warm and intimate. What do you love about this kitchen design?
