Christmas is fast approaching now, and for most of us, the best part of the big day is sitting around the table with loved ones and enjoying a Christmas dinner. While you may already have your festive decorations perfectly positioned, don't forget to consider brightening up your table area for the big day.
This year, we're all about creating a super stylish, Instagrammable table display. The easiest way to make your festive set-up look chic rather than cluttered is to stick to one colour scheme. Whether it's gold, silver or red, look for decorations in those colours, so even your neutral items will be complemented by those pieces.
From sparkling placecard holders to showstopping centerpieces, and elegant champagne glasses that you can use all year, I've picked out the stylish table decorations that will help you to create a beautiful arrangement this Christmas that the whole family will love.
How we chose the best Christmas table decorations
Personal opinion: I've scoured the web to find only the decorations that I think are truly worth shopping, and have only included items that I would purchase myself.
Price: Christmas is expensive enough as it is, so I've tried to keep the costs down in the list where possible, and everything included is less than £55.
Trusted brands: While I haven't tried and tested all of the products included, I've only included brands that I know and love.
