The start of winter should be a cue to plan out your Christmas decorations. Of course, you can't escape finalizing your holiday gift list, but finding time to settle on things like a festive wreath for your front door or a clever theme for your Christmas tree can make all the difference. In the midst of your holiday planning, don't overlook your dinner table. DIY Christmas table settings are an easy way to show off your style and let guests know just how much attention you pay to the details.

This year, make your loved ones feel extra special with any one of these Christmas table settings, from candy cane place card holders to a table runner crafted of garland. Now all you have to do is make sure your holiday menu is just as good.
