Three top tips to set your table for the big day Layering

Layer your beautiful crockery, first being a placemat and or charger plate, next place a dinner plate, then a bowl. You can even include a small favour or Christmas cracker for your family to enjoy.

Don’t forget cutlery and arrange them to fit! Either around the plate, like below, or at the side on top of a napkin.

 

Three top tips to set your table for the big day Candles and fairy lights

Create a festive ambience with plenty of fairy lights and candles.

A good mix of pillar candles and tealights really help to produce a warm, glowing atmosphere that will be remembered for years to come.

 

Three top tips to set your table for the big day Colour or theme

Think about your theme, or don’t at all! It really doesn’t matter how you lay the table, as long as you enjoy the day.

We love the look of the below above, with white and green flowers, crockery and matching crackers. This stunning range is by Sophie Conran for Portmeirion UK.

A traditional, but minimalist look, to let your Christmas Dinner be the star of the show!
