This festive season is all about creating a table that feels joyful, expressive, and deeply personal. From regal florals to embroidered stripes and tactile layers, 2025’s tabletop trends invite you to celebrate craft, colour, and creativity. Here are the five themes shaping the most memorable festive tables this year.
1. Floral Printed Tableware in Bold, Regal Colours
Floral prints continue their rise—this time reimagined in sumptuous jewel tones. Think ruby reds, emerald greens, and sapphire blues anchoring your festive table in a palette that feels both traditional and modern. Hand screen printed by artisans in Jaipur, our First Bloom collection brings together intricate Mughal-inspired patterns and rich jewel tones on a soft cotton-linen blend — transforming ancient artistry into modern, timeless tableware.
2. Lush Maximalism
After years of grey, beige and white dominating interiors (yawn), maximalism is having its festive comeback. More colour, more pattern, more joy. Layer rich tones—cranberry, gold, forest, navy—with bold prints and statement pieces. Maximalist styling is about celebrating abundance: full bouquets, patterned plates, coloured glassware, unexpected pairings. Our Holiday Tablescape edit makes it easy to mix and match prints, textures, and colours to create a festive table that feels joyful and curated.

3. The Festive Embroidered Stripe
Stripes are no longer just a summer staple—they’re officially a festive hero. In 2025, embroidered stripes in seasonal shades (think deep red or forest green) bring a fresh twist to classic holiday tables. The texture of embroidery elevates the simplicity of the stripe, creating a look that feels both timeless and celebratory. Explore our Embroidered Stripe collection for tablecloths, napkins, and runners that add a refined, festive touch.
4. Texture, Prints & Fabrics: A New Mix
This season encourages a more relaxed, creative approach to materials. Tables are being dressed with unexpected textures and fabrics: linen layered with velvet ribbons, rattan woven through stems of ivy centrepieces, block-printed linen cotton blend tablecloths, styled alongside bamboo, glass, and woodland accents. The magic is in the mix. By combining contrasting textures, you create a table that feels collected, crafted, and full of depth. Discover linens, candleware, bamboo cutlery, and glassware in The Christmas Shop all the touches you need elevate your festive tabletop with tactile luxury.
5. Personalised Touches: Embroidered Napkins
The most thoughtful trend of 2025? Personalisation. Embroidered napkins—whether monogrammed, initialled, or stitched with a festive motif—are becoming a signature host’s touch. They elevate the experience for guests and often double as keepsakes. Clio & Clover offers custom embroidered napkins to add a personal, luxurious detail to your festive table.
Whether you lean into maximalist colour or favour more subtle touches like embroidery and texture, 2025’s festive tables are all about personality and artistry. Let your table tell a story—rich in craft, pattern, and joy.
