The White Company makes Christmas entertaining an elegant affair
Chrissie Rucker offers her tips on how to make the season truly special
The art of entertaining usually takes years of practice but The White Company has made it all easy this Christmas with a gorgeous selection of tableware and accessories, plus everything you need in between to make guests feel at home and welcome.
“Christmas is the one time of year I really love going to town on decorating my home and laying the best possible looking table.” says Chrissie Rucker, founder of The White Company.
Setting the Table
“The key to make your table look beautiful is to pick a colour theme and stick to it,” Chrissie says. “Don’t overdo it with too many different colours.”
This year, The White Company offers two gorgeous and distinct looks with which to dress the your Christmas table. The first is the Batik Table Linen, which consists of a Velvet Runner with a Hand-Knotted Fringe £35, a set of 4 Place Mats £28 and Napkin Rings, Hemstitch Table Cloth £70 (178x273cm) and tableware, Egyptian Fine Glass Candlesticks £12 or £14 (depending on size). This last stunning smokey colour collection comes in gorgeous gift boxes and accessorises beautifully with matching Tea Light Holders £8 – a great gift idea.
If it’s a more snow-white table you like, choose the white table linen – Hemstitch table linen and white Soho tableware and accessorise with clear glass rather than coloured glass. “A white tablecloth always looks beautifully stylish when accessorised with clear-glass candlesticks, silver cutlery and white winter roses with green foliage,” Chrissie points out. Go for the Silver-Rimmed Hurricane Lamp £40 to give the table a lovely winter feel, teamed with the Ivory Pillar Candle £10.
To complete the look, essential finishing touches include gorgeousTea-Light Holders £5 (great when placed in pairs around a room or scattered across the table) and Clear Beaded Napkin Rings £14 (for a set of 4) for dressing up napkins. Plus don’t forget the essential Posh Party Poppers £4 (for a pack of ten), Indoor Sparklers £2.50 (for a pack of 10) and new Table Trivia Cards £3 to really make your Christmas party extra special.
Last but by no means least, the piece de resistance this year is the lovely white Wooden Tray. “The combined richness of the aubergine and velvet makes this runner the perfect Christmas dining table decoration,” explains Chrissie.
Add these striking aubergine mats and beaded napkin rings to our white (sets of 4 large dinner plates £35) to create a dramatic look.” This collection looks perfect with the vintage style £35 (for a set of 4) are elegant and timeless, and the £45. “I will definitely be using one of these to serve the Champagne on Christmas Day and also giving a few as gifts,” Chrissie says. “It’s one of my favourite new items this year and has a stunning mirrored base”
