A Red and Gold Table Setting for Christmas

Sharing is caring!

The house is decorated, the gifts are wrapped and the table is set.  It’s time for Christmas!  Today I am sharing my Red and Gold Table Setting just in time for Christmas.

I have worked pretty hard on my dining room in the last year.  Here is what we have done:

  1.  Refinished the dining room table – see that post HERE.
  2. Painted the dining room chairs – see that post HERE.
  3. Installed Board and Batten – see that post HERE.
  4. Refinished the antique buffet – that post is coming soon!

With all that hard work I am loving decorating my dining room for the different holidays!  Today I am all about Red and Gold for my Christmas Table Setting.

Red and Gold Table Setting

Christmas Table Setting with Red tablecloth, green and gold garland and candles.

I decided to go bold in my dining room this year with lots of colors! I love to decorate with red this time of year so I dug out this read table cloth that I have had for years. (similar here) Then I used two different garlands, one in green with lots of pine cones on it and another in gold. (green garland and gold garland)

I added a white cake plate to elevate a large red candle and sprinkled in some IKEA candlesticks with white candles.

Let’s talk about the elephant in the room, that fold in the tablecloth.  I swear I have the hardest time getting some of the folds out!  If anyone has a great iron or steamer that they swear by PLEASE tell me what you use!  I need some help!!!

Here you will notice the cloth napkins I have under the smaller plate. I picked them up at my local small business, a place called Oakland Home. Here is a link to some that are very similar.

Would you like to save this?

We'll email this post to you, so you can come back to it later!

See the gold bottle?  That was a Christmas gift from my daughter.  She took a champagne bottle, painted the top and glitterified the bottom (Yes, that’s a word now! 😝)

Here are a couple of evening shots.  I just love the look in the candlelight!

I hope you and your family have a wonderful Christmas.  Until next year, make Merry and be well!
