There is nothing quite like the simple beauty of an evergreen table for winter! Pairing greens with white makes a crisp, clean look. Add in a few red berries or glassware, and it says festive!
Simple Table
This table setting came together with just three things: white items, clear glass, and evergreen cuttings. The white dinnerware, candles, tablecloth, and napkins gave the table a neutral look. Then I added evergreen cuttings for color. The majority of these cuttings are from a deodar tree, but any evergreen cutting will work. I soaked these in water to wash them, which caused the needles to contract into tight tufts. Once they dried out, they became bushy again.
Stemless Wine Glasses for Vases
Stemless champagne flutes were perfect containers for the evergreens because of the small opening that held the greenery firmly in place. Also, I needed several vases, so drinking glasses worked well because I had two sets. Usually, if I look around at what I already have, I can find something that works as flowers vases.
Vintage Silverware
I used vintage silverware rather than gold to keep the look simple and white. Then I used white bows to tie together the flatware to give it a casual look.
Lighted Globe Lights
I used a fluted crystal bowl to hold the battery-operated lighted globes. A few sprigs of pine were tucked around the glass globes.
White Place Cards with Greenery
Place cards were also white with a sprig of cedar.
Battery-Operated Lights
I placed a single strand of battery-operated mini lights down the table, hiding the battery pack under a white-footed dish.
Crystal Candleholders
Since I used several clear glass pieces on this table, I added crystal candle holders too. It adds to the winter look of ice, snow, and evergreens.
I hope these photos give you inspiration for setting your own table of white and evergreens. Use what you have. You might be surprised at what you find tucked away that will give you this look!
