Christmas decorations aren’t just about the tree and the wreath – how you choose to ‘dress’ your table should also be a big part of your festive preparations. On Christmas day, a table with pizzazz can act as the star of the show. 

Planning how you would like your Christmas table to look – from what your colour scheme will be to the type of centrepiece you want to include – can be an extremely enjoyable activity. You’ll also get in on the “tablescaping” trend. 

But getting your table looking as sparkly and festive as you’ve pictured can take some work. With the right products and a festive aesthetic approach, though, it’s easier than you think. 

To help you nail your Christmas table decor, we’ve put together a guide to some of our absolute favourite decorations for 2021.
