Setting a Festive Holiday Table

Festive Coastal Christmas Entertaining!

Last week we gave our secrets to a stress free Christmas on the beach, this week we thought we’d House By The Shore carries a lovely collection of stoneware in a blue crab pattern that we just love.  Now most people may look at these dishes and think they don’t really represent the holidays but we can tell you it just takes some creativity.

cover setting a festive holiday table and some additional ideas for coastal Christmas entertaining. 

Just look at what Mary from Home is Where the Boat Is did in a blog post on A Coastal Christmas and Giveaway!  She set a beautiful tablescape for the holidays by using a lovely red stripe quilt as a tablecloth and putting evergreens under the plate.   Add some lanterns festooned with greenery and pretty red ribbon and a sprinkling of shells here and there and you have a lovely coastal Christmas table.

We’ve actually started a Pinterest board for coastal Christmas entertaining and we’ve pinned Mary’s tablescape to it along with some other items we believe are helpful and inspirational.

The take away on setting a Christmas table is you don’t really have to have Christmas dishes to do it.  Just by adding a little greenery, ribbons and a little sparkle you can have a holiday table in no time.  Check out HGTV’s post Create a Coastal-Chic Holiday TableNotice the plain white dishes but with the addition of evergreens, burlap ribbon, shells and pretty ornaments the table is transformed. 


You don’t need much to set a festive holiday table for a coastal Christmas.  The prettiest tablescapes are often the ones where you have to be the most creative!
