Two Christmas Tablescapes with Lenox

Every now and then, I’m lucky enough to work with a brand that has been a household name since I was a little girl. When Lenox reached out to collaborate with me, I was both incredibly flattered and totally thrilled! The China on my wedding registry was Lenox, so I was already quite familiar with (and fond of) this brand.

Lenox asked me to style a beautiful, festive tablescape that I could photograph and share with my followers in preparation for Christmas. Even as I write this, some of the pieces I used are selling out—they’re that good.

I decided it would be fun to showcase how a few little styling tweaks and the incorporation of a variety of Lenox pieces could make a huge difference in the table’s overall mood. The two vibes I landed on are “Woodsy, but make it Art Deco” and “Nostalgic, but make it glam!” I’ll divulge the small tweaks that helped define each of these looks, but first, check out my Favorite Picks over on Lenox’s site in case you’d like to shop any of the pieces that haven’t yet sold out!

The other products seen from other stores are the following:

World Market 60” x 90” Buffet White Tablecloth

Target Oversized Holiday Plaid Table Runner 20" x 90" by Hearth & Hand (sold out almost immediately, but I’ve linked a similar version by Studio McGee for Threshold. Here are the green plaid nap kins, too!)
Pottery Barn Organic Cotton Casual Napkin Set of 4, White
Bundle of Fresh Cut Winter Greens

Woodsy, but Make It Art Deco

Inspired by the gold rims on the Holiday Gold Highball and Double Old Fashioned Glass Sets, and by the geometric pattern on the Trianna salad plates, I thought it would be fun to put a little 1920s twist on the traditional woodsy-cottage Christmas table decor. I found these Wintery Woods Light-Up Geo Tree Figurines, as well as some taller light-up trees from the same collection (which are no longer available), and I grouped them into threes for a fun, illuminated centerpiece. For added height, I placed some wintery greens in a fancy tall pitcher. I used the Trianna Champagne Flutes in Slate (no longer available, but the red wine glasses and cocktail glasses are currently available in this color on Lenox.com) to bring a touch of contrast and a unique shape for added interest at each place setting.

Nostalgic, but Make It Glam

For this look, I kept the same place settings, at least for the most part. I swapped out the geometric-patterned Trianna salad plates and white bowls, and I brought in some antique saucers. I love that the edges on these saucers are gold, but the details in the edging give them a softer feel. These can be set along the top-left side of guests’ dinner plates and used as a bread plate during dinner, or they can be reserved for setting that much-needed after-dinner coffee.

My grandmother always put out her Dickens village, and when I spotted these white, light-up house figurines (no longer available), they brought back so many childhood memories. Even though these aren’t part of the Dickens Village collection, they make me feel all warm and fuzzy when I look at them.

Some of my other little touches that set this look apart are the rolled napkins, accented with a cinnamon stick and pine sprig, and tied with a clipping of twine. I also love the wintery greens spread out in the middle of the table and grounded with some pretty poinsettias!
