Christmas in the Formal

December 18, 2014 by Fotini Filed Under: Christmas, Christmas tablescape, formal dining room, neutral Christmas decor, tablescape

This Season I have been decorating with neutrals, natural elements and pops of red! We finally finished painting our formal dining room furniture and I just love how it looks! I will share the full reveal in another post 😉 One day while I was out and about shopping at a local hardware store, I spotted some beautiful cedar garland and snagged a 12 foot bunch!

The smell of the fresh cedar is just sensational! The perfect addition to any Holiday decor! I simply swagged it over my formal table and cut it to my desired length. I rearranged some of my mercury glass pieces, vases and votives, as well as, a few sporadic glittery mini bulbs into the design. I love using candles in my center pieces because it gives it such a romantic, intimate feel!

I added an additional swag of cedar on my buffet, as well as, a fresh boxwood wreath! The beautiful shades of green mix perfectly with the neutral tones and pops of red!

I love, and look forward to decorating my home each year for Christmas! Typically I decorate with the traditional red and white, but this year I wanted to go more natural and stick with neutral tones and natural elements. I started shopping the after Christmas sales last year and snagged some amazing deals on new ornaments and swag for my tree!

I just love my tree and mantle this year! The neutral tones just look amazing together! Of course I have lots of burlap involved! I just used a couple yards of burlap as my tree skirt, nothing special, but I love how it looks! I made our stockings, which I will be sharing here soon and I love them too!! I used kraft paper again this year to wrap my packages and paired them with a beautiful platinum ribbon and chalkboard tags, as well as some amazing glitter tape I bought from Target Dollar Spot, I’m obsessed with it!!! I also got some beautiful, glitter embellished wrapping paper on sale last year that fits perfectly with my design!

Please follow along with me as I give you a tour of my home 🙂  I hope you enjoy!
