Holiday Table Inspiration

The holidays are here and Arhaus Furniture is the place to go for your holiday decor needs! We asked TC Shemesh, the store manager of Arhaus, for tips on how to create the perfect holiday tablescape. Whether you are looking for traditional, elegant and timeless decor or something more eclectic and modern, Arhaus is the place to go for all your tablescape needs. Stop by the store on December 12 during Very Merry Meatpacking for a “how to update your home for the winter season decor” panel and 10% off purchases.

Introduce the theme through your centerpiece. Add candleholders of varying heights to add visual interest. Make sure to leave open spaces throughout the table so that your dinner guests can see the person across from them.

Dinnerware and flatware help set the tone. For example, use flatware with intricate detailing for a formal look. Or choose something sleek, such as our Kent flatware for a casual feel. Get creative! I used our Pasaro Bird tea light holders as name card holders and attached faux fur stockings to the backs of each chair. The possibilities are endless!

Utilize candles! A variety of small, medium and large unscented taper candles, add mood to the table without mixing scent with the food’s aroma. Save those scented ones, like our Retreat tobacco Amber or wild fig tree hand blown candles, for the entryway or living room.
