First For Women

Set the mood for joy

With a spirited holiday scene

The key to creating an elegant, easy-on-you Christmas spread filled with surprising festive flair: updating a classic red-and-white color palette with sparkling pops of gold and chic seasonal extras. Here, a red tablecloth and snow-white runner are topped with matching dinnerware and coffee mugs. Dressing up plates with gilded chargers, napkins and appetizer bowls (topped with shimmery ornaments and Christmas cookies) furthers the luxe, lovely look. The showstoppi­ng finishing touch: a twinkling centerpiec­e made by popping a quartet of battery-run pillar candles, berry sprigs and gold tinsel into a long serving bowl. It’s the perfect spot for spreading cheer!
