Discover below some tips for Christmas table arrangements, which will help you to have one of the most beautiful and original holiday dinners this year too, which every guest will enjoy!

 

1. Arranging and decorating the table:

A holiday like Christmas should be marked with a festive meal. Obviously, such a special event, attended by extended family and friends, ‘demands’ a special arrangement.
We need an elegant table service made of the highest quality porcelain, which you can find here, an exquisitely designed cutlery set, crystal glasses and carefully chosen accessories and decorations in harmony with the rest of the items on display.

  • Unlike an everyday meal, a festive meal involves more dishes and therefore more plates, cutlery and glasses. This shouldn’t be a problem, as the rules for setting the table are much the same as for an everyday meal. The secret to the correct arrangement of cutlery is to distribute it symmetrically around the plate, in the order in which we use it, from the outside towards the plate.
    As for the glasses, the idea is to arrange them at an angle to the right of the plate, in descending order or in a triangle.
    Instead of napkins, cotton napkins should be placed on a festive table. Where should napkins be placed at the table? There are two options: either fold them into triangles and place them under forks or fold them into rectangles and place them in the middle of the plate. You can even opt to arrange the napkins in the glass.
    Decoration is also extremely important when preparing a festive meal. But it’s up to us whether we go for a ‘tame’ arrangement in terms of colours and prints or opt for a cheerful, richly decorated setup. Whichever option you choose, the most important thing is that the Christmas accessories, decorations and arrangements perfectly complement the rest of the items on the table.

2. Christmas table: choosing the tablecloth and tableware

Setting the table for the Christmas feast starts with the tablecloth. Impeccable and in traditional colours, the tablecloth should be decorated with specific Christmas motifs to fully feel the festive spirit.

The Christmas table will be laden with traditional dishes, so the tableware should be just right. But be careful not to overload the decor with accessories. Choose simple but festive tableware, including white plates, silver cutlery, and colourless glass or crystal glasses.
