christmas tablescapes

around the holidays the dining table always serves as the central gathering place for friends and family to share dinner, stories, laughter and memories. being that the table is so important really for any holiday i always like to feature some great ideas for tablescapes. this year i have gathered some ideas for natural decor that you can find in your own backyard.

glass cylinder vases serve as the centerpiece for this naturally beautiful tablescape. a vintage camp blanket has been used in place of a tablecloth and sets the color palette of classic red and green.


for added height and interest the glass vases have been placed on cedar stumps. love that detail!
 

burlap has been cut into placemats and garland. black napkins have been wrapped with jute and accented with a jingle bell and boxwood trimmings. the final result is so beautiful!

here a glass cloche as been filled with clear glass ornaments (with the caps removed), along with pinecones and evergreen trimmings. sprinkle a few evergreen trimming around the cloche for a nice finishing touch. simple and classy!

line a variety of white vases down the center of your dining table and fill them with trimmings from cedar trees, white spider mums, and seeded eucalyptus (available from a florist).

bring the outdoors in by creating a table runner of gorgeous evergreen trimmings accented with pinecones and finished with rustic candlelit lanterns.

use a pearl topped pin to make a pear into the perfect name card holder. scatter greenery on a burlap table runner and mix in pears and glass candleholders.
