WINTER WHITE & GREEN CHRISTMAS TABLESCAPE IDEAS

Now that both the interior and exterior of most homes are all decorated for Christmas - cards are written and sent, baking has begun and plans for entertaining have been made, it's time to give a little thought to what tablestyling to implement. Will you have a large family gathering, serving your Christmas dinner formal & family style? Or will you be hosting a friendly casual gathering and go buffet style? Even if it's only setting a table for two, a few simple details can create a magical setting to celebrate Christmas. Here are a few tablestyling ideas - from place-settings to chair details, using the very popular combination of natural linens, winter whites, antique silver, nature and fresh greens...

Keep the table simple, crisp and clean - perfect for winter!

Give guests a gift of nature...

A simple olive wreath creates a low-profile centerpiece...

Love this idea - especially for a Southwest Christmas:

A low bed of succulents + gold dipped wine glasses = casual elegance!

Love this idea too and SO simple to do: Doilies as place-mat under a clear plate.

Great way to utilize your favorite letter-type to personalize your place-settings... and clear plates can be collected from the Dollar Store, a thrift store, even just the grocery store.

twine + spruce + cinnamon sticks!

No wreath? No problem! Create a margent to adorn chair backs

(A margent is the vertical arrangement that drops at the ends of festoons - aka a swag (garland).

 So many wonderful tablestyle ideas... I wish I had family here in AZ to do these for! (I miss doing tablescapes for family who would come to dinner in our FL home.)

All of the above images I gathered off Pinterest and pinned to my Holiday Inspy Board -- which after two years of pinning, has gotten out of control! I seriously need to create smaller categories (wish they had sub-boards!) and relocate some of these pin ideas. While scrolling through the board, and seeing all the ideas I'd love to do, it got me thinking: Do one Christmas pin project per month, which would equal 12 Days of Christmas to share next year.

Happy pinning and tablestyling!

Can you beilive, Christmas is now less than a week away!
