Check out these six dazzling table settings and centerpieces for sparkling inspiration when hosting get-togethers for family and friends this holiday season.

 

Festive Tulips CenterpieceFestive tulips

While tulips are typically considered a spring flower, they make a stunning Christmas arrangement if you can find them. Arrange red tulips alongside pine branches and snowberries (or any white berries) for maximum contrast. Place the arrangement in a metal pail and garnish with a white ribbon.

Rustic Luxe CenterpieceRustic Luxe Christmas Centerpiece

Combine styles for a signature look on your Christmas table. This centerpiece combines a few basics for a stunning effect: start with candlesticks that shimmer (these are metal and glass) placed in a weathered wooden tray. Pile on metallic Christmas ornaments (it’s OK to mix finishes!) and add a little greenery, plus an antler. Light the candles and your centerpiece is complete.

 

Easy Ornament CenterpieceEasy Ornament Centerpiece

Elegance needn’t come in a frilly, fussy package. This graceful tablescape comes together with the most basic of elements. Stack glass ornaments in a pyramid formation on top of a compote, adhering the ornaments to one another with scrapbooking glue dots. Surround the centerpiece with more red accents — ornaments on top of candlesticks and a few red votive cups.

 

White Hot Holiday CenterpieceWhite-Hot Holiday

A table blanketed in white lends sophistication and a sense of occasion to any gathering. Get the look by using clear glass and metallic elements against a backdrop of white table linens and china. An artificial tree spray-painted white, flocked with spray snow, and potted in a galvanized pail makes a modern centerpiece for this table. Lights and star ornaments hung on the tree add another layer of sparkle.

 

Classic Silver and White CenterpieceClassic Silver-and-White Centerpiece
