My holiday table is always a last minute scramble. A mad search to find all of my stuff. Hidden somewhere (by me) in the back of a closet or in our storage unit.
I did a a tablescape for a fun local event with some great designers and am using the photos as inspiration for my holiday table this year….. but

where is my STUFF?

I agonized over my theme for this event ~ digging around storage, stores and Pinterest for ideas.

Ultimately, I (sort of) pulled it together. Here are some of the beautiful tablescapes my fellow designers did ~










Some of the tables were set for a meal, while others were based on creative concepts like Cocktails in the Library, Ski Holiday, or Christmas in Virginia.









Doesn’t this get you in the holiday mood?

I went with a red and white motif for my romantic holiday table for two.

I had a tablecloth and napkins made from a bright Duralee fabric. Two little myrtle topiaries were my touch of green.

Martinis and chocolate, just my type of dinner!

I found the little plaid plates and the dachshund salt & pepper shakers at Target.

Juliska dinner plates and my great-grandmothers silver.

Smith & Hawken shaved wood red tree in the middle of the table.

My favorite stemless crystal wine glasses by North by Northeast.




It was a lot of fun designing for this event, but now I have to get my table set asap because ~ Christmas is this week!

I hope this gives you some inspiration for your holiday table.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year ~ see you in 2023!
