After decorating in blues & greens for years. I am really loving red & white for Christmas.
It was so fun putting this table together.
This is how our table will look for Christmas dinner this year for our little family of 4.
I used lots of layers and textures…mixing them together to make an interesting table..the red felt snowflake placemats, the red check napkins and the chevron pockets for the flatware.
I borrowed the tiered stand from the mantelscape for the centerpiece.along with the white cardboard trees.
I don’t think tablescapes can ever have too much colour, do you?
But then, being the ‘tweak freak’ that I am, I had to change out the centerpiece and replace it with the white bowl of ornaments borrowed from the coffee table…just to see what it looked like.
I think it looks pretty great too!
What do you think?
Which do you like better?
Look #1.
Or Look #2.
Have you thought about your Christmas table for this year?
What colours are the ‘soup du jour’ for you?

So pretty. I'm really into red and white for christmas this year too. I prefer the second one as it is lower and you can talk to each other better.
