How to Do Christmas Table Decorations Like a Pro Just in Time

5 days before Christmas day, you should make sure your tablescape is just how you pictured it!

If you haven’t yet had the time to plan how your table setting for one of the most important meals of the year, don’t worry because there is still time! Today we are going to share with you some of the best Christmas table decorations that will make you look like a home decor pro just in time before your family arrives.

Although we are used to associating Christmas with ornaments, wreaths and other festive motifs, that doesn’t always have to be the case. You can successfully create a Christmas table setting with many other elements, taking ideas from the outside and taking them inside, onto your dinner table.

One thing you can do this year to shake things up is let go of the usual red and golden color palette and bring some outdoors elements onto your table setting. Plate your deserts with copper dishes and add a few green and floral elements for a more cheerful vibe.

Sometimes, the best dining room decor ideas lie on the simplicity of an interior. This Scandinavian inspired dining room setting shines with only a couple of decorative elements on the table, giving space for the table and the handmade chairs to shine.

Get a good use out of all the mason jars you have laying around in your kitchen cupboards. Fill them halfway with salt and sweet pomegranate seeds. Top it off with a few leaves and mix those mason jars with a few candles on the table. You will get a traditional table setting with a rustic twist!

Bring in the metallics! Metallics are always in, so they should always be a must in any Christmas table setting. Mix your metallic elements with a few neutral colors and simple dinnerware, so as to not end up with an overwhelming dining setting.

If you are having Christmas dinner, or Christmas lunch with a lot of people and literally don’t have time to think about a very elaborate Christmas tablescape, know that sometimes less is more. Place the essentials all on the table, add a little menu and a few center tables. In this case, a few cotton leaves were placed to add a more subtle and rustic look.

Candles! Candles are always a safe choice for any Christmas table setting. If you want to add some glamour to it, choose a stunning candle holder in copper, for example. Go with white candles for a more Christmasy look.

Get even more outdoor elements and create a DIY golden bird. It will create a whimsical look in your dining room, at the same time it will make for an adorable and relaxed interior.

Finally, living in an apartment doesn’t mean you can’t boast a majestic dining room. And as far as dining room decor ideas go, this minimalist table setting comes to complement a powerful dining table and the bespoke dining chairs by mid-century luxury brand Essential Home.
