This post is about creating the perfect Christmas Tablescapes that will ring in the holiday season!
Christmas is that time of year family is together to gather around the dining room table. The dining table is the gathering place to eat, laugh and enjoy the company of our loved ones. Since tables become main gathering places during the holidays, they make a great place to decorate for the festivities.
Table scapes don’t have to be elaborate, but they can add some character and Christmas cheer to any table. Tablescapes have a way of creating an inviting ambiance in a dining room. We hope you find some inspiration in these images to create a Christmas tablescape that will ring in the holiday season!
Recreate Christmas Tablescapes in Smaller Spaces
You can recreate these looks without a formal dining room table. If your gathering space is around a coffee table or a kitchen island, you can recreate these looks there too! These looks can easily be minimized for smaller spaces. We have some tips below for recreating these looks on a smaller scale!
- Swap a long strand of garland for a smaller strand or a garland wreath.
- Swap 6-8 candles for a centerpiece with one large candle or just add 3-4 candlesticks
- Choose one or two larger items as feature pieces if you have a smaller table.

How cute is this whimsical Christmas tablescape?! Your’s does not have to be this elaborate, but this idea can easily be recreated for your tablescapes!

This tablescape is a beautiful traditional look that would be great for any table. The gold accents from the gold-trimmed dinner ware and candlesticks pop against the fullness of the greenery. We love how this tablescape allows you to easily see those around the table. The skinny candlesticks add some height but don’t obstruct your view. This look is a more elegant look that can be recreated with by bunching together a long strand of garland and placing candlesticks in between place settings.

We love the cozy ambiance the candles and rich red cranberries bring to the table. This is a fun DIY project too! You may have some of these things around your house, so this tablescape will take little time and will not break the bank! Start by filling your mason jars a fourth of the way up. Top half of the jars with cranberries and fresh pieces of cedar leaves. Place candles into the snow, so the half of the candle shows. Arrange on your table as seen in this picture. Finish by adding red accents with plates at the table seatings.

Complete the look with a great smelling holiday candle, like the one linked below!
