Decorating the Christmas Table

Decorating the Christmas table is one way you can make Christmas really special and memorable for your family and friends, and it is something I personally love to have fun with every year!

Something as simple as cheerful Christmas disposable napkins can make a simple evening meal fun for the kids - or you can really go to town with decorations for a formal Christmas meal. And if you are serving buffet meals at all this Christmas, you have a great opportunity to add some festive decorations there, too.

A beautiful bowl or vase of flowers in holiday colours, or a potted poinsettia or miniature conifer, can also add a cheerful touch. You can also have a look at the Christmas wreath ideas, as any wreath laid flat on the table and interspersed with candles makes a stunning display.

I have a growing gallery of photos here for inspiration - giving ideas for every "table", from family supper to full formal dinner.
