Creative Winter Themed Table Centerpieces: Inspiring Ideas!
There can be so many looks to your tables at a winter celebration. And the centerpieces will be the focal point of whatever look you chose. Will it be a snowy scene all a-glitter with crystals? A romantic shabby chic or period setting? Or even a modern, organic display? To help you make the perfect choice, we have 7 creative centerpiece ideas from our own sets to showcase the distinct winter ambiance you have in mind!
An Elegant Crystal Wonderland Theme
We all love a snowy winter scene with sparkling snowflakes and icicles, don’t we? Well, you can capture that magic and give it an elegant spin with a centerpiece using elements like these:
- a white and silver palette set against a black and white damask table cloth
- all-white decorative pieces like vintage-style lanterns, pillar candles, ceramic doves or love birds, soft fluffy feathers
- bunches of glass or silver-colored “berries” in metallic vases
- clear glass candle holders, mirrored stands, crystal bowls and the like
The Romance of Shabby Chic
A winter motif doesn’t have to be all about snow. You can opt for a softly feminine centerpiece treatment brought to life through these shabby chic decorative touches:
- a color scheme of ivory and powder pink to set the sweet mood
- an entire frieze of glowing lace-wrapped luminaries in varying sizes
- a romantic “runner” of braided pink ribbon garlands and loose rose petals
- table elements that complement the centerpiece’s look, such as napkins arranged in a feathery fan shape, sheer organza place mats, and clear glass plates
- dainty rose-inspired favor bags on each place setting
- optional: candle plates with pearls and mirrors
A Stylish Snowflake-themed Setting
A variation on the crystal table setting above, this centerpiece uses classic elements in a new way to recreate a stylish snowy scene:
- again, a pairing of white and silver for the basic palette
- a contrast of modern metallic cube vases with elegant cut-glass candleholders
- varied glass containers, from slender towering vases to simple votive holders
- softening touches of white flowers and bowls of faux snow
- glowing pillar candles and taper candles trimmed with strands of silver beads
- snowflake menu cards and silver place card frames (partially visible at each place setting) enhancing the overall look
Modern Meets Organic, With an Asian Flair
Now, this is a completely different, non-wintry take! It presents a more modern, trendy centerpiece with an Asian inspiration:
- a nod to traditional holiday colors with a palette of green, red, and gold
- organic elements (fresh or faux) such as orchids, lotus blossoms, red berries, and moss-covered stones
- matte gold Christmas balls and gold-painted fiber needles
- a large black-glazed platter as a base, set on a mat of bamboo sticks
A Marie Antoinette-inspired Soiree
Here, your winter centerpiece can take on a period French look inspired by the flamboyant Marie Antoinette. Not surprisingly, the elements are opulent and over-the-top:
- the Queen’s signature palette of pink, white, and powder blue
- frilly, ruffled lace fans arranged in a row down the center of the tablescape
- strands of pearls and lace flower cutouts surrounding the fans
- place settings supporting the centerpiece’s look with floral-patterned china and gold chargers lined with pink ruffles
- favors in fluffy pink wraps with ornate gold favor tags perched in dainty tea cups
Tiered Favor-Display Centerpiece
A dreamy, fairy tale party theme deserves a luxurious centerpiece! Create this striking tiered favor centerpiece with the following decor elements:
- silky satin white tablecloth
- Bellenza’s porcelain Cinderella-inspired shoes in gift boxes
- swirling ribbons in navy blue, pink, and white
- crystal bunches and a scattering of clear beads and sequins
- tea light candles in votive holders
- white Jordan almonds
- strings of fairy lights
Clearly, your wintertime celebration can take on so many looks. And once you’ve made a choice, your table centerpieces should showcase that look beautifully!
