Black And White Modern Christmas Table
This holiday table is an elegant step away from the sometimes overwhelming colors of the season. The crisp, white tablecloth creates a neat and clean aesthetic while special accessories like the black silverware and mix-and-match plate designs emphasize the modern feel of the overall design. At the same time, if you look closely you'll see that this table hasn't strayed too far from the fold after all.
One of the biggest benefits of a black and white palette is that it can accommodate several different pops of color. So the red cranberries, green plants and gold plate trim can still give you all (or most) of the colors of the season while keeping it all in easily controllable little bursts. via Pinterest

On this table we see again the importance of color and accessories in creating a compelling holiday table.

White Christmas Table
We all dream of them, so it's only natural to find a white Christmas on our holiday tables. Silver metallics against the backdrop of a white tablecloth are all it takes to bring this winter wonderland to life. Cute, glittery reindeer statues say everything this table needs to say about the day and the feeling that it is meant to inspire.
The small presents, various statues and dramatic, sweeping candelabras create layers of height that help to maintain visual interest keeping the nearly monotone color palette from becoming stale and boring.
When bringing this style to your holiday table, keep the dining and flatware formal as a counterpoint to the whimsy of the reindeer. The combination will give all of your guests the feeling of a special event that's still meant to be intimate and fun. via Pinterest
