A Peppermint Christmas Tablescape
I have had my list of themes for all my tablescapes for this Christmas season for several months but when I saw this really inexpensive tablecloth on Amazon a few weeks ago, one theme on the list got bumped to next year to add this Peppermint themed table setting to this year’s list because I really liked the design on this tablecloth.
A Cute World Market Peppermint Plate
These peppermint appetizer or tidbit plates are such fun. They came from World Market online last year. I always check World Market at holiday time because they often have cute plate designs that are inexpensive.
Although the peppermint design on the smaller plates is different from this salad plate peppermint design they work well together. These salad plates are labeled The Bon-Ton Stores, Inc., York, PA. I think I bought them at HomeGoods several years ago.
10 Strawberry Street Black Dinner Plate
These black porcelain dinner plates are some of the first plates that I bought when I started tablescaping. I knew I would need a basic black dinner plate from time to time. They were made by 10 Strawberry Street and the pattern was called Black Classic Porcelain. I bought them at HomeGoods several years ago.

Dollar Tree Spray-Painted Chargers
I didn’t like the shade of any of my red chargers for a tablescape I was working on last year so Hubby went to the Dollar Store and bought six chargers and spray-painted them the perfect red color for me. We have done this before and it is an inexpensive way to create a charger that is the perfect color for your tablescape.

I bought this frosted white flatware on sale online at Wayfair several years ago, it was made by Cambridge. It is 18/0 so the fork tines are a bit sharper than I would like but I really liked the frosted color. Frosted flatware is popular right now and a Google search will turn up several different patterns and colors. You can read my blog post about what to consider when you are buying flatware here.
I can’t remember where I found the peppermint striped napkins, I have had them for several years now. The black and white Merry napkin rings came from Kirkland’s online last year. There are four different font designs that say merry on this set of napkin rings. I like the simple black and white design.
I found these ceramic peppermint place card holders at Target online last year. They were made by Transpac. They were meant for this tablescape!
I think these red glass goblets came from Crate and Barrel last year. I had been looking for some simple red goblets and grabbed these when I saw them online. Now I wish I had ordered more of them. The goblet on the right with the black bowl and clear stem was made by Classic Touch and it is called V-Shaped Water Glass, Black With Clear Stem. I bought them at Houzz online a couple years ago. You can read my blog post about what to consider when you are buying goblets for your tablescaping collection including the goblet colors that I use most often here.
These Raz Imports Cone Peppermint Trees came from Amazon a few years ago. I think they are a great addition to this Peppermint Christmas tablescape.
I really like using red and black on a tablescape especially with the addition of white. You can see a cozy Christmas Eve tablescape that I did last year using these colors here.
