I'll always admire minimalist design, but I can't say that it's where my heart lies – especially during the holiday season. To me, there's nothing more heartwarming than some unapologetically festive Christmas table decor; and I could kit out my entire table using pieces from Pottery Barn's dinnerware and entertaining sale.
It might sound hyperbolic, but it's true: starting with the 12 Days of Christmas table runner, layering up the Christmas in the Country dinner plates, and not forgetting the Holiday Tree serving platters, my dream table would be a riot of festive prints and nostalgic colors. Nostalgia, after all, is at the top of the list when it comes to holiday decor themes for Christmas 2025.
Pottery Barn's Gingerbread Dinnerware Collection is brimming with festive joy
What I love most about Pottery Barn is the sheer variety of tableware on offer – whether you are, in fact, planning a minimalist tablescape, or you share my love for a more elaborate look. Pottery Barn's dinnerware and entertaining sale even features a selection of barware, so you can perfect your home bar setup, too. I've got my eye on the candy cane-inspired Etched Glass Swirl decanter.
Just in time for holiday entertaining, Pottery Barn's tableware is up to 60% off – and it's the perfect opportunity to give your hosting closet a seasonal upgrade. Check out my favorite pieces below.
