I finally set aside a few hours last week to create this tablescape, and had so much fun doing so. I wanted to create a table that was inexpensive, festive, and easy to achieve. Seeing as Christmas Eve is tomorrow, I thought I’d share an easy Christmas Tablescape + My Christmas menu, along with a few tips!

My favorite thing to do is create beautiful things. Ever since I was a kid I’ve loved creating, styling, and dressing things up to make them pretty. It’s always been my dream to have the prettiest Christmas table. But up until now, I’ve never been able to make that happen.

Soo…

For my centerpiece, I bought 3 bundles of eucalyptus greens for $5 each at the grocery store. I also picked up a bunch of pomegranates and simply arranged them around the edges of the greens. Then I threw in a few ornaments for an extra festive touch, and done. Took me only 10 minutes and turned out so pretty. The major bonus in using eucalyptus?

It smells incredible, just like Christmas actually. Perfection.

Moving along to my dishes. I used simple brushed white plates (sold out), and gold flatware, to add a festive pop of color. Natural linens with velvet ribbon, and the cutest homemade gingerbread cookie name tags, give each place setting a special touch. To finish off the table, I used my favorite fancy wine glasses that add an air of elegance.

In full disclosure, I can 100% guarantee my Christmas Eve and Christmas Day table will not look like this. My family is full of boys who could simply care less about what the table looks like. And since I’m usually running around in the kitchen, the table never gets as fully done up I would like. I try, but then ten seconds later someone comes in and ruins it. I wish I was joking, but that’s my family. They’re wild and crazy, and they drive me insane…but yet I love them to death.

And with that, I’m going to leave you guys with my Christmas Eve and Christmas Day dinner menus. I hope you all have a wonderful holiday, making many memories with family and friends! Merry Christmas!

  2. Hello, I just found you and I am head over heels in love…..where can I find the link to the flatware and wine glasses….

    1. Hey Kimberly,
      So sorry I no longer have the link for these, they are super old. Please let me know if you have any other questions! xTieghan

    1. Hi Maddie! It’s a mix of Fresh seeded eucalyptus, spiral eucalyptus, bay leaf. You can actually buy the exact greens I used from terrain if you’d like. Linked below! Please let me know if you have any other questions. Thank you!! xTieghan

  4. Wow! You really raised the bar on Christmas! I am fully inspired to step my game up this year, thank you for sharing your vision.

  5. What a beautiful photographic “story” on Christmas entertaining. I know you indicated your lovely dinnerware was not available,; however, are you able to tell me the pattern? I’m fierce at trying to locate unlocatable items.

    Thank you and happy holidays.

    1. Hi Joanne! I am not sure on the pattern but I would say it is scalloped… Sorry it is no longer available! I wish I could help more! xTieghan

  6. Did you take the Winter Salad with Maple Candied Walnuts salad down? I can no longer find the recipe. Thank you!
