The Christmas table doesn’t have to be formal or coloured green, red and gold. Give it your own personal style spin and make it magical with a little imagination. We’ve searched?Pinterest for some of our favourite seasonal table settings to get you in the spirit?

  1. Go for a Nordic Noel and invest in monochromes, metallics and wooden accessories you’ll use all year round.
  2. Muted greens are a great fresh alternative to the traditional Christmas greens and look lovely on light timber.
  3. Try a loose?line of simple tea lights surrounded by fairy lights to make a feature of festive sparkle.
  4. Or try filling a glass carafe or jar with fairy lights for instant twinkle.
  5. Don’t forget?mistletoe makes a great, simple alternative to holly – and is much more fun!
  6. Go grown-up girly and team pink pastels with a delicate white lace tablecloth, then top with metallic festive foliage.
  7. Simple, stylish succulents make a great on-trend twist to your place settings. Use them for your placenames.
