Elves on a Christmas Tablescape
This Elves tablescape has been over a year in the making. I bought the napkin rings last year and then spent months looking for everything else. The tablecloth came from Spoonflower online a few months ago. My favorite Christmas colors to decorate with are a true Christmas Red and Kelly Green so I was looking for those colors.
These elf shoe appetizer plates were made by Boston Warehouse and they are marked 2005. I bought them on Ebay last year. There are three different color designs. I love the gold bells and all the stripes and polka dots!
This dinner plate was made by Fiesta and the color is Shamrock. It is one of my favorite green dinner plates, I love the bright green color. Unfortunately this color has been discontinued but you may still be able to find them on the secondary market. I love the design of this dinner plate, I have it in other colors as well. You can read about what you need to think about when you are buying dinner plates here.
This charger came from the Dollar Store last year and Hubby spray-painted it red for me. I love this bright red color. I can’t remember what the original color was. To read about what you should be considering when you are buying chargers, please click here.
This Milano Red flatware is Ginkgo International LePrix. I have had this set for years but it is still for sale. Not sure where I bought it. I now have it in other colors as well. You can read my blog post about what to consider when you are buying flatware here.
I found these cute plastic elf napkin rings on Etsy last year. I bought three boy elves and three girl elves. I found the green napkins on Amazon a few years ago.

It was a struggle to find an elf place card holder and I finally settled on this elf toy. It is actually a small car with wheels. I just set them on a Oleg Cassini clear glass place card holder. I bought the place card holders at HomeGoods several years ago when I first started tablescaping. They are heavy and solid and I really like the simple design. I often use them as a stand for place card items. To read about the what, where and how of place card holders, please click here.
The green goblet on the left came from Macy’s a few years ago. The pattern is Qualia Glass Meridian. I like the height and the beautiful green color. I think the red glass goblet on the right came from Crate and Barrel a few years ago. 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. You can read my blog post about what to consider when you are buying goblets for your tablescaping collection including the colors that I use most often here.
When we travel out of state we always seem to eat at Cracker Barrel a few times. I love their gift shop area and when I discovered that they have an online store I was really happy. From time to time I check their web store and I discovered this elf cookie jar a few months ago. I had been looking for some kind of elf centerpiece for a year and I quickly bought it! I set it on a red drink dispenser stand that I bought at Pottery Barn several years ago to give it a bit more height.
When I saw the matching elf salt and pepper set I bought them as well. They remind me of the pixie figures that were popular in the 50’s.
I found this three piece elf set online at Walmart. I bought two sets, one for each side of the centerpiece. I like their cute little faces and the bright colors.
It can’t be Christmas without a few elves wandering around!
