Are you ready to create a holiday tablescape? Whether you want to create a formal or simple tablescape, there are many creative ideas for holidays such as Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year’s Eve. So, start collecting ideas, first picking your favorite design and re-creating the look, or creating your own. There are countless decisions to be made on types of flowers, greenery, color, linens, flatware, and much more. No matter what holiday you celebrate, there is a tablescape for you. Let’s get started with some simple ideas.
Traditional Tablescape

Match the color of your placemats to coordinate with your flowers and add chargers under your plates. Add dimension and texture to your tablescape—Tis the season for holiday tablescapes in red, white, green, and evergreen trees. I love the idea of small bud vases on each plate filled with stems of spider mums, carnations, and mixed greenery.
Elegant Style

Are you looking for an elegant holiday tablescape? Adding linen napkins is a simple way to create a warm, welcoming, stylish feel to soften a marble tabletop. Using fresh holiday greenery screams, “the holidays have arrived!” The choices are endless: olive branch, magnolia tips, baby blue eucalyptus, and silver dollar eucalyptus.
Farmhouse Buffet

Are you planning a chic farmhouse dinner? Sometimes dinner parties are too big for a sit-down dinner. A buffet-style dinner helps friends and family mingle and keeps things exciting. Fill your favorite ceramic pitchers with charming silver dollar eucalyptus or seeded eucalyptus, which has a faded silvery color. It is long-lasting and the ultimate touch of an aromatic fragrance for your home and holiday tablescape.

Bring a bit of nature to your table for Thanksgiving, Hanukkah, or Christmas. Hypericum berries come in white, peach, green, red, or burgundy with a berryscape for your table. Pick your favorite color or mix them to make a simple, colorful statement. Add dimension to the table with pattern fabrics and colored charter plates. No matter how you create your holiday tablescape, have fun and add your personal touch!
One of the easiest ways to fill your home with cheer is by inviting family and friends for dinner. The start of the holiday season is around the corner. Holiday greenery will be available after Thanksgiving on our website. Remember to place your order early; Holiday greens ship FedEx ground and can take 1-5 days to arrive to you.
