Your how to style guide for the holiday season!

Our Interior Decorator Melissa Lunardon gives you her style tips to create your very own Scandinavian or Urban-Contemporary inspired tablescapes! Click through the gallery above and check out some table settings featured in the Sogo 6-54 and Rouge 6-31 at Berwick Waters Estate.

Scandinavian inspired tablescape styling

  • Use elements straight from nature - red berries, green garland, birch branches and pine cones

  • Introduce touches of timber with serving trays, candle sticks and decorative ornaments

  • Use traditional red and white decor

  • Use candlelights for a simple and natural ambience

  • Embrace the handmade feel and enjoy a few DIY decorating projects such as handmade bon bons and hand-stamped napkins

Urban-contemporary inspired tablescape styling

  • Stick to a monochromatic scheme with touches of silver

  • Incorporate this season's colour of bright yellow

  • Play around with different patterns with your table linen

  • Use metallics and shiny surfaces for a bold and striking statement

  • Keep it simple and minimal by keeping your table setting clean and uncluttered

  • Be daring and use a black or white Christmas tree
