Holiday Tablescape

The holiday season is upon us, and there's nothing quite like the joy of entertaining loved ones in the comfort of your own home. While culinary skills are a fundamental part of a successful gathering, it's important not to overlook the finer details of holiday entertaining décor. Specifically, your holiday table setting.

This year, we tapped Anthropologie and Terrain stylists to create elevated holiday table décor for a stunning seasonal feast – be it casual or full-blown fancy. The results? Well-designed holiday tables that not only ignite a warm and inviting atmosphere for your friends and family, but also add a touch of magic and sparkle to your home. Follow along for their easy steps to recreating a table setting that will make your holiday season truly unforgettable.

The right holiday centerpieces can tie everything together and leave your guests in awe. From lush floral arrangements to elegant candle clusters, there are endless holiday centerpiece ideas to choose from.

Think beyond traditional centerpieces and explore new color palettes, textures, and unique ways to incorporate festive details such as ornaments, greenery, and twinkling lights. Let your creativity take center stage or look to the below ideas to create a focal point that truly captures the essence of the season.

An elegant, unique centerpiece can set the tone for the entire table. Consider bringing nature indoors - i.e. using pinecones, colorful berries, or a dried flower bouquet to draw the eye in. Then, pair these elements with an organically draped holiday garland, which adds depth and lushness to your tablescape. By incorporating small details, like trailing vines or delicate blooms, you can create a one-of-a-kind atmosphere.

One of the simplest ways to create a festive focal point is by using candles – classic and cozy, they add a touch of soft elegance to your holiday table décor. For a minimalist approach, use a mix of unscented taper candles of varying heights and place them in the center of your table runner. To make an unforgettable candle centerpiece, consider using colorful candlesticks and glass or metal candlestick holders for a pop of playfulness.

A festive holiday dinner table requires attention to detail and a thoughtful arrangement of essentials. To make it feel extra special, begin with a beautiful dinnerware set that reflects your personal taste and style.

Whether you prefer classic red and green themes, modern metallic accents, or a multi-color experience, there is no shortage of ways to set the tone for a memorable dinner table. We're BIG fans of our Festive Bistro Tile Collection, which includes brightly glimmering plates, salt and pepper shakers, and even a butter dish! Want something less traditional? Mix and match dinnerware sets to create a playful and eclectic look.

Pair your plates with elegant drinkware that complements your color palette. Then, top it off with luxurious, eye-catching table linens and placemats that tie the entire look together. For an added touch of holiday spirit, consider tying your napkins together with an only-at-Anthro ornament that doubles as a take-home gift. By including these essential elements, your dining room will exude the comfort and joy of the holiday season.

From the whimsical to the sophisticated, we offer a bespoke mix of pieces that are sure to impress your guests. Whether you're looking for classic dinnerware, festive linens, or unique centerpieces, our selection has everything you need to create a one-of-a-kind holiday spread. From our table to yours, may your holidays be merry and bright.
