Christmas Place Setting Ideas wih Everyday Dishes
Here’s an idea of using your everyday dinnerware collection for a
Christmas table.
I wanted to show you how many combinations you could come up with
using a few pieces.
If you are having several guests over and you don’t have a complete matching set for everyone, this is a great way to mix and match, giving it an
eclectic feel.
The only cohesion I followed was every place setting had a white napkin,
a pine cone, and a rosemary sprig tied with a piece of twine.
I think your guests will find it all quite a fun combination.
Better yet, you didn’t have to go buy new holiday dishes.
All the dinner plates are from Target.
The salad plates are a mix from Pier One, and Thrifted.
I also love the look of using bright red flatware.
I hope this gives you some creative ideas on how to use your everyday dishes this holiday season.
Have fun with what you have.
Dawn, I LOVE this post! I have always said that you can take everyday dishes, add a cute accent plate and a great little seasonal decor and have darling place settings for all occasions! Wonderful post! Love your combinations!!!
The settings are lovely and you are right that it can be fun and unexpected to mix and match.
I like the idea of using the white napkin, pinecone & raffia at each setting….I’m definitely going to see what I can come up with 🙂
I agree. Besides, I wouldn’t have room for dishes just for Christmas. Very pretty combos!

So many pretty combinations. Some really great plates! I love the blue and white log cabin. Cute!!
These are just wonderful, Dawn! I have some of those bird plates, but always reserve them for Spring and Summer. I’m pulling them out to use in our Christmas settings — I’m thrilled to have this great new idea. Thank you!
This is just fabulous Dawn and being a dishaholic myself I think I could round up enough to make a table similar to yours. Thanks for the great idea!
Great ideas Dawn, thanks for sharing them, I’m always at a loss for ideas for tablescaping!
This is a great post, Dawn! Your dishes are lovely and showcasing the many ways we can use what we already have to set a nice table is to be commended. Thanks for sharing!!
Love the eclectic look and great idea with the pinecone and rosemary
Hi Dawn, this is my first visit to your blog. I just love the photo with all the dishes, very clever. And what a great idea! You’re right, no need to go out and get all Christmas themed dishes, when you can make due with what you have. I like the little pine cone and sprig of rosemary. It’s so simple but really all you need to say “Christmas” at your table. So glad to find you!
