Long before the first guest arrives, there is a quiet moment when the Christmas table is set and the candles are not yet lit. The plates are stacked, the glasses catch the late afternoon light and the Christmas tree glows in the corner of the room. Our Christmas tableware is made for these precious moments, with tablecloths and napkins to set the scene as well as the right plates, mugs and platters to fill it. A Christmas table setting does not need to be elaborate to feel special, it just needs to feel generous, personal and a little bit joyful to get guests into the festive spirit. At Target Australia, our Christmas tableware collection features a variety of sizes, designs and colourways to complement your seasonal styling this year. Shop online or in-store today.
A Christmas lunch tends to grow as the day goes on with an extra chair squeezed in and a second platter appearing from the kitchen. Christmas table settings that mix patterned plates with plain ones forgive a lot and a tablecloth in a warm, traditional tone hides the odd spill with good grace. Reversible placemats and chargers add a layer underneath, so the Christmas table setting looks full before any food arrives. Add a Christmas table centrepiece from our Christmas table decorations and the whole table looks considered, complete and coordinated.
Tumblers and stemless glasses suit the first drinks of the afternoon and a novelty mug makes the cup of tea that follows dessert feel like part of the occasion. A Christmas tableware set in matching colours makes a table look planned in minutes, while a few playful pieces keep it relaxed. Platters and serving boards carry the cheese and fruit and bowls hold whatever disappears fastest. Tea towels and aprons in festive prints keep the cook in the spirit and they make easy extra gifts too. No matter your event or occasion, find the perfect festive Christmas tableware touches with Target Australia.
A Christmas table setting done the night before means Christmas morning is for presents rather than polishing glasses or stressing over place settings. Lay the cloth, set out the plates, fold the napkins and then leave the table alone until the guests arrive. When the day finishes outside, sturdy tumblers and platters travel from kitchen to verandah without a fuss. Add a string of Christmas lights along the table and the evening has a glow all of its own.

As a guide, count one dinner plate, one glass and one napkin for every guest at your Christmas lunch, then add a couple of spares for spills and surprise arrivals. Serving platters and bowls matter as much as plates, so work out how many dishes are coming to the table too when deciding how much Christmas tableware you'll need this year.
To set the table for an outdoor Christmas lunch, it's worth considering the weather from wind to shade and beyond. Start by weighing down the tablecloth with a runner or clips and then choose sturdy tumblers over delicate stems. Keep food covered until the last moment and pick a shaded spot if you can for added protection from the summer heat. Not to mention it keeps the guests happy and the cheese board fresh and ready for sharing.
To look after your Christmas tablecloths and linen, we recommend treating stains quickly with cold water before washing and follow the care label for the gentlest cycle. Dry and iron each piece flat before storing, so it is ready for next year without a crease.
