There’s something undeniably cozy about keeping the holidays simple and sweet.

United Supermarkets has everything you need to host an event full of Southern comfort with rustic floral designs, homemade baked goods, and an al-le-carte holiday menu made to replace or supplement your time in the kitchen. Follow this guide to set your holiday table for a fun and traditional Christmas your guests will never forget.

Choose Cozy Colors and Patterns
A traditional Christmas is Christmas in its truest form. Lean into vibrant shades of red and green as well as plaid patterns for a look that’s both traditional and unassuming. Place brightly-colored plates atop white chargers and tie your silverware and napkins together with a piece of twine. Finish off your place setting with plenty of candles to complete the atmosphere of an otherwise perfect room.
Holiday Pro-Tip: Make Christmas fun for everyone by swapping your traditional tablecloth for a sheet of butcher paper and crayons. As an added bonus, it will also keep the littles’ hands busy through dessert. Click here to download our FREE coloring sheet and place one at each child’s seat— you can thank us later!
Layer On a Little Greenery
A bouquet of bright, red roses with an evergreen table runner will continue your theme with colors and textures. Make your bouquet go further by centering it on the table and hiding the vase with long sprigs of evergreen. Accent with brightly-colored winter berries and you’re done!
Holiday Pro-Tip: Elevate the look of your arrangement by adding white lilies to the mix. Ask your floral designer to put together a custom bouquet that’s right for you.
