Create a Grand Entrance

Holiday Themed Table

The smallest details can make the biggest difference at your holiday table. Many memories that will last a lifetime will happen at the dinner table; take time to think and care about what mood your table will give off. Find a festive centerpiece, create handcrafted place cards, and add subtle seasonal touches like sprigs of holly for the ultimate holiday themed table.

Switch Out the Throw Pillows and Blankets

Chances are you and your loved ones will spend many hours making memories around the fire, so it’s important that everyone feels as comfortable as possible!
