Christmas Plaid Table Setting + Video
I will show you how I decorated my dining room and table for Christmas this year with mixes of different plaids.
Decorating with plaids has been so fun this year! I started with my mantel, then the rest of my living room, the kitchen and today I’m showing you my lovely table setting in the dining room like you would for Christmas morning.
I’m also participating in our Canadian Bloggers Christmas Home Tour hosted by Christina of The DIY Mommy and Shannon of Home Made Lovely. So be sure to follow along with all the tours this week (at the end of this post).

Table Setting
You might recall I decorated my cozy fall table setting with this same tablecloth although it’s not a tablecloth, it’s a blanket scarf!
(that one is currently sold out but here is a similar one)
I made sure each holiday table setting had one of my DIY Christmas crackers. I still love my vintage Christmas plates from Pottery Barn but they don’t sell them anymore but I found these nostalgic ones that I love just as much.
For an easy table setting centrepiece, I added a buffalo plaid scarf to the bottom of a dough bowl with some wrapped Christmas gifts in plaid paper and ribbon along with some pinecones.
Tree and Wreaths
I added the gold crown I used on last year’s tree again. I bought it at The Cross and they have a similar one online.
I added wire (I just used picture hanging wire) to the base of the crown so it would stay put where I wanted on the Christmas tree.
I added minimal decorations on my tree along with the glittery letters M E R R Y C H R I S T M A S but it’s kind of hard to see in this photo. I bought the letters a couple of years ago at Michael’s but they have similar ones on sale at Pottery Barn.
I still have the same trees that I bought two years ago but this year I switched them around so the living room flocked Christmas tree is now in the dining room.
I love turning our pre-lit Christmas tree lights on with the Tree Mote. You just plug your tree into the adapter and the remote turns it off and on! No more searching to unplug the lights from behind the tree!
I love the eucalyptus wreaths I bought this year too. I was worried the wreaths would look too fake but I’m so impressed how good they look for such a great price!
(the wreaths have sold out currently but here is a similar one at the same great price!)

So pretty! Where did you find that crown tree topper? I need one!
The Cross! It’s not a tree topper just a regular crown. I’ve linked it above now 😉
Hugs, Jamie
Jamie, I LOVE the plaid! It’s so festive and so beautiful! And probably so outside your comfort zone, lol. But it’s beautiful!
Lindi, YES! haha so out of my comfort zone.
Hugs, Jamie
Jamie, love the crown on the tree, so unique!
Thanks so much, Laurie!
Hugs, Jamie
Everything looks so beautiful Jamie! I’m absolutely loving all things plaid this year too, there’s something so classic and nostalgic feeling about it. You’ve worked it in so beautifully to each space this year, I’ve been pinning every one of your posts for inspiration! So cozy my friend!
Thanks for your sweet comment, Kristi! It is quite cozy.
Hugs, Jamie
The crown tree topper is beautiful, so glad you shared the how-to keep it secure on the tree.
Pat
Thanks Pat!
Hugs, Jamie
I love all the plaid! It’s so classic and timeless- and beautiful!!
Thanks Laura! I’m loving it this year too.
Hugs, Jamie
Such a lovely room- you did a wonderful job of incorporating the plaid- so classic. Love the chairs and chandi too. Merry Christmas!
Thanks Ashlea! I’m loving it this year!
Hugs, Jamie
I have been looking everywhere for green plaid wrapping paper this year, just like the paper on the gift under the tree in your photo, where did it come from? I am kind of an OCD/obsessive theme wrapper and I always get myself in this boat. A plan and no way to execute it. LOL
Hi Karen,
I just added the link above in my post. Plaid wrapping paper is hard to find and this one is reversible! I bought 2 packs b/c I loved it so much. It’s Hallmark brand too, good quality.
Hugs, Jamie
Loving all the plaid touches!
Thanks Christine!
Hugs, Jamie
Looks oh-so-you and very festive! I especially love the crown atop the tree – pinned! Happy holidays
Thanks Ariel!
Hugs, Jamie
I love your neutral tours, but I really LOVE this warmed up version with the plaids too!
Thanks Shannon. I hope you had a wonderful!
Hugs, Jamie
This is totally gorgeous! And I love your ideas for the table. I am using plaid for decoration this year and my table scape is pretty blah. Will definitely keep in mind the next time!
Thank you! I hope you had a wonderful holiday.
Hugs, Jamie
Jamie, where are your Christmas stockings? Love the plaid! All you need to do now is go to J Crew and find your matching outfit! I am making stockings for my daughter, her guy, and her dog, from old sweaters, vintage trims, feathers, etc. Tis the season! Happy Holidays! Claudia
Thank you, Claudia! I made them! You can get the free sewing pattern here: https://somuchbetterwithage.com/european-looking-vintage-christmas-stockings/
You just need to be a subscriber to my newsletter. I had a matching plaid outfit in my plaid kitchen post! Happy holidays!!
Hugs, Jamie
