The fine art of the table during the holidays

Fun and gathering around a table are some of the most precious moments in life, especially after such a long time.

This year, for your holiday decorations, here are 6 tips to help you create a table for entertaining the whole family. These ideas are perfect for creating a warm atmosphere, with subtle elegance embodied in a classic, modern design.

Set the tone with a matching tablecloth and napkins

Nothing says holiday celebration like a matching tablecloth and napkin set in the Christmas spirit. If there’s one place that’s a master of pieces that match themes and seasons to perfection, it’s Simons. And, there is no shortage of choices!

 

Go for a different kind of dinnerware

In order to make a change and to change the atmosphere for the time of a nice meal, add a few pieces of crockery different from those you usually use for hosting.

For example, you could add new festive mugs for serving tea or new glasses for serving after-dinner drinks. Here are some unique finds from the Anthropologie store.Create a warm and cozy environment with candles

A must-have essential for adding warmth and a certain je-ne-sais-quoi to your home: candles. To save you the trouble of searching, we’ve found the famous Thymes Frasier pine needle candles at the Safran boutique on St-Denis Street!

Let its wintry scent envelop guests in a warm atmosphere, while serving as a festive decoration for Christmas cheer.

Invite nature to your table

Keep it simple. Consider using the natural resources around you to give your table a rustic feel. You’ll find that the possibilities are endless: a bowl of pine nuts as a centerpiece, a fir branch and a piece of cinnamon attached to napkins, or a few slices of dried oranges spread around the dishes.
