Decorate your Christmas table with elegant white and blue

A mix of pale blue and icy white will give your Christmas table an aura of sophistication

For a stylish celebration, set the table using china with silver detailing and plenty of elegant glassware.

Show off your menu in a mirrored frame. Hand-write it or print it on a piece of subtly patterned wallpaper, then put it in an elegant frame and display it on the table.


Show off your menu in a mirrored frameA cake stand filled with treats makes an unusual and yummy centrepiece. Stack glass cake stands then fill them with white flowers, chocolates, novelties and silver Christmas crackers.

Don't forget to extend the white and blue look to your drinks. Fill a clear glass vase with ice and a sprinkle of metallic confetti, then add mini bottles of Champagne.

White candles and roses placed on the table and along the mantel will finish this look beautifully.
