Christmas is all about spending time together with your family and friends and over the festive period a lot of people enjoy having meals together. Make your table look Christmassy with some candles, Christmas themed napkins and perhaps a small gift. A beautifully decorated table not only adds to the Christmassy feeling, but it will also give your Christmas dinner a personal touch. We will show you how you can creatively and individually design your table decoration for Christmas.
Our Do's and Don'ts List will give you an initial overview of what you should look out for when decorating your table:
Do’s
✅ Create a colour scheme for your table decorations so that you have set colours such as red and green, gold or even silver. ✅ When decorating always follow the basic rule of "less is more". ✅ Use natural materials such as twigs, pine cones, slices of dried orange or cinnamon sticks to add the finishing touches to your table decorations. ✅ Using other decorative items and tableware can add the finishing touches to your table decorations. You could also personalise some table decorations with photo products from ifolor.

Dont’s
❌ Use decorative items in a wide range of colours. ❌ Don’t put too many decorations on the table otherwise it will look too busy. ❌ Decorate the table with only photos and photo products. ❌ Buy new crockery and Christmas decorations just to decorate your table for Christmas. |

Homemade place cards and menu holders
You can make your own fantastic card holders for your place cards or menus with simple tools and materials. You can use four corks glued together in a square to put a card on the top. You can also use pine cones and small or thick pieces of wood as a base for your cards by sawing a notch into each one of them and then you can insert the cards. If the pine cones keep falling down you can stick them to a thin piece of wood with some glue.
Using coasters as place cards
The square shaped Photo Coasters from ifolor are perfect as decorative items for your table or as creative place cards for your Christmas table decorations. Personalise the coasters with the names or initials of your guests or use some Christmas and winter pictures to decorate your table. The coasters are available in practical sets of 4 or 8. You can store them safely in the box provided until the next Christmas dinner party. Alternatively, you can also make them as a gift for your loved ones, who can then take them home with them after the Christmas dinner.
