BRIGHT and Whimsical CHRISTMAS Table

If you saw my "Rough Luxe" Thanksgiving table, you might recognize one of the patterns on this bright and whimsical Christmas table....we're reusing Mikasa's "Italian Countryside". It's a totally different look (and I'll have one more for New Year's)! I'm sure some people have full sets of dishes that they swap out for each and every holiday, but urban living doesn't lend itself to that kind of storage space. Here, I've supplemented the base pattern with beautiful rentals from Tablescapes. I especially love the cute patterned plate.
The napkins are rolled in a style reminiscent of Christmas crackers. In fact, you could even place a small treasure in the middle of each roll, to be discovered when your guests unfurl their napkins. How fun! Remember to keep centerpieces low, so that guests can easily make conversation over them. Here I've used a small bowl full of retro-inspired ornaments and pom-pom garland.
