Light Your Table (Image 8 of 12)
You can give any table a Christmas feel, as long as you get the colours right. This red, gold and green table may not hold a traditional Christmas turkey, but the look is unmistakeably festive.

Use strings of beads, particularly in festive gold and other metallic colours, to decorate tableware.
Yes, the homeware stores will have these, but if – like the rest of us – you’re having a credit crunch Christmas, check the charity shops first. Most will have strings of pearlised and metallic beads that you can snap up for just a few pence.
