What could be better than celebrating with a warm, traditional table decoration? It couldn’t be easier: Julaursa suggests you start by laying a raffia or jute table runner. Then add fir branches to replace the usual flowers. This will bring a wintry decor to your home. Don’t forget to add candles for a warm, luminous touch.

You can also vary the elements that make up the table runner. For a lighter effect, replace the jute with ivory muslin or another fabric positioned with a crinkled effect. Julaursa suggests adding natural pine cones and dried leaves for a brown effect. Enhance the effect with gold and glitter baubles or pearl garlands. Last but not least, Moïsa suggests creating floral arrangements in transparent cylindrical pots, and adding a string of lights to highlight the different elements.
3- Timeless white for your Christmas table decorations.

White is one of our best allies when it comes to decorating, especially for winter Christmas decorations. Reminiscent of the season’s snow, it’s not uncommon to find it on the tree and other decorations around the house. For an all-white centrepiece, Julaursa has the solution. Start by covering your table with a white tablecloth. Then add decorative elements with small touches of silver or gold, such as porcelain reindeer. For a frosted white effect, you can use objects such as disco balls and silver chandeliers. Go for originality and transparency by adding glass lanterns, pine cones, candles, tree branches, etc.
