Christmas Dining Room Ideas: Three Looks to Try


The dining room really becomes the star of the show over the Christmas season. Using these Christmas dining room décor ideas from Peppermill Interiors, you can transform your ordinary dining room space into something truly magical for friends and family to gather around.

From the table itself, to other furniture and decorative features, you can use these Christmas ideas to dress your dining room beautifully for the season. Whether you want a contemporary or rustic interior, your dining room will be decked out in festive cheer with this must have guide!

Chic Christmas Dining

Done right, your Christmas Dining Room décor can look chic and stylish. By embracing a soft, neutral palette you can achieve a modern, contemporary inspired Christmas dining room that’s perfect for the festivities. Peppermill’s Tavistock Oak Dining Table Range embraces French country inspired style that’s undeniably still modern. Featuring beautiful baluster legs with delicate detailing, this high-quality oak dining table will add softness to your dining interior, especially at Christmas.

For a complete look, why not pair the Tavistock Oak Dining Table with the St. Emilion French Upholstered Dining Chairs? Beautifully finished with individual brass studs, these chairs perfectly compliment a modern dining room thanks to their classic French design and rich upholstery work in dark grey, light grey, dove grey, wheat or stone linen.


Monochrome and Minimal Dining

If you’re wanting to brighten up your home with that festive feeling but want minimal effort, then choosing a monochrome colour scheme and decorations for your dining room is an excellent choice. The Castle Double Pedestal Dining Table Range is already a statement piece, having a gorgeous subtle diamond and star design on top. This table has also been designed with vintage style in mind and has characteristics that make it look like an older piece of furniture. We think decorating this table with traditional Christmas colours such as gold and silver, is best to achieve a classy dining room interior style that is reminiscent of the 1920s.

You can even match your gold and silver decorations with Peppermill’s Brittany French Style Velvet Chair Range which come in a gorgeous selection of warm colours including mustard velvet and dark green velvet. Velvets add a feel of luxury and softness to an interior, perfect for making your dining room feel warm and cosy this Christmas.


Traditional Rustic Dining

Throw away extravagance for timeless appeal with a rustic themed dining room. A rustic theme can make the whole room feel warm and cosy. Instead of covering your dining table with a tablecloth, use a table runner so the beautiful wood texture can become part of the dining room experience. Peppermill’s Padstow Extendable Dining Table is handcrafted from high-quality natural oak and comes in two finishes, silverback and weathered, both are equally suitable for any country home or rustic interior. 


Filled with beautiful grains, natural knots and rustic grooves are what make this table unique. Plus, with an extendable feature, this table ensures that you’ll have lots of space for all your tableware, food and of course - guests! We think this table looks best with natural decorations such as a floral tablescape, packed with natural items including pinecones, flowers, leaves and dried fruit!

Complementing the Table

Christmas dining ultimately starts with your table, it’s essentially the canvas to your dining room where you can create a fabulous and festive display. Peppermill Interiors has a range of stunning dining tables suited for different and individual tastes. 

A few little tweaks and creative arrangements here and there can transform your dining room interior into a cosy and inviting space, ready to accommodate friends and family for the big day. 

We hope our top ideas are helpful and that you enjoy preparing your dining room for Christmas Day. Remember to make the most of the moment and the precious time spent with loved ones.
