1. Select Your Theme

When planning a holiday table setting it’s easiest if you start with theme. When I saw the Snowman Ice Cream Cake from Baskin-Robbins I knew that it was going to be the focal point of my table setting and the theme of my Happy Holidays table. I decided that my table would be Snowman themed, so besides having a Snowman Ice Cream cake, I added other elements that tied in the theme like 3D Snowflakes, Doily Trees, and Snowman Milk.  {{squealing}}

2.  Select Your Color Scheme

3.  Mix-in Your Elements

To keep my Holiday place setting easy to set up and easier to clean up, I relied heavily on paper products.  I wanted to be able to throw most items away afterwards and not have to wash a lot of dishes.  During the holidays, I think this is a handy tip for entertaining.  You can have a spectacular table without the fine china, y’all!

Remember that when you are mixing in your fun theme elements that you keep the word “layer” in mind.  You want to layer colors, height and textures.  I used textured paper and it added a 3D element to the tablescape that was just fantastic.  Don’t be afraid to experiment with texture, and definitely make use of varying height distribution on your table.

Don’t forget the CENTERPIECE!  This tablescape features the Baskin-Robbins Snowman Ice Cream Cake. The Snowman cake is perfect focal point for your table. It’s not only adorable, it tastes absolutely delicious too.
