Christmas Table Runners

It's Christmas Eve and the tree is brightly decorated. The roast is in the oven, there are fresh pies on the counter, and the guests are on the way. The table is festive and bold, from the sparkling crystal to the colorful Christmas table runners. It will be a night of family, friends, fine food, and memories.

Creating a beautiful Christmas table is one of the most important elements of any holiday party. The focal point of the gathering, a holiday table should always be beautiful, functional, and, most importantly, festive. The china, flatware, and placemats are important, but the centerpiece is the element that truly draws the eye. Together, Christmas table runners, candles, and holiday decorations create a gorgeous centerpiece for any holiday gathering.

Table runners are typically eight to 12 inches wide and run the length of the table. Lenox, Vera, and Spode have created a collection of runners that make it easy to create the perfect holiday look. From traditional lace to more contemporary bold colors, choose a design that matches the Christmas placemats or one that creates interest by contrasting boldly against the table cloth. Change the look of a table with a simple runner.

Creamy white lace, thick red and green plaid, or iconic holiday images are beautifully represented on Christmas table runners. Use a bold solid color against a simple white table cloth or create a minimalist look with a white on white look. A table runner is a beautiful way to complete the holiday look.

Freshen up holiday décor with table runners. Bring in holiday colors of snowy white, berry red, and pine green to add a festive element to each place setting. Use matching napkins to pull it all together or use contrasting colors for a more contemporary feel. For larger parties, with multiple tables, consider using a variety of table runners to give each setting arrangement a unique holiday look.
