Peppermint Holiday Tables: 3 Budget Levels

For this styled shoot the designers at Custom Love Gifts wanted to try one theme, but with three different budgets. Each table would be rich in holiday color and each would have a Peppermint Holiday theme. Such fabulous ideas that you can easily steal inspiration for your own holiday table. You can see so many more of the photos in the full gallery here. All festively captured by Sarah C. Photography. Don't forget, you can get all these fabulous favors and gifts from Custom Love Gifts for not only your holiday table, but your wedding table as well.
Starting our holiday table decor ideas on any budget, we have the The Mid Price Point Table:
We mimicked peppermints by keeping red and white stripes and swirls going throughout the table scape. Handmade favors include peppermint bath soak with mini wooden scoop and jingle bell mini stockings as place cards. To keep with our budget we opted for a non-floral centerpiece and instead used rental items and small floral arrangements from Melissa Timm Designs. Silver branches create height and hold handmade peppermint favors, ribbon, and mini birds.

The High End Table:
We are crazy about the beautiful red rose table linen from White Table paired with platinum rimmed china from Campbell Tent & Party Rentals. Mini ornament name cards tie in with the tall ornament filled centerpiece and painted candlesticks and silver accent carried throughout the table design. A striped bow on a red velvet cupcake brings in the peppermint theme, as does the candy cane tied to hot cocoa mini mug favors.

The Budget Table:
We chose to use bold patterns of polka dots and chevron to make simple items seem more interesting. The DIY centerpiece is made of tissue boxes, wrapped with fabric and ribbon and attached to wooden candlesticks painted silver. Chevron party bags with a pouch of hot chocolate mix make the perfect partner to a giant marshmallow on a striped stick. At each place setting was a name card made from red & white striped duct tape from the dollar store, silver mini muffin baking cup and peppermint candy plus a clear glass milk bottles with striped straw. For a little pop of green we a tied a bow on the rolled silverware just like a gift.
