Festive Messages
Using brown paper for your holiday table allows you the opportunity to do something unique and personal. Write festive greeting on the brown paper, label each setting as a placeholder, or just add your own decoration with the brown paper. Think about a piece of fabric or ribbon underneath the brown paper to add a colourful or festive pattern, or use gift wrap ribbon to decorate the edges of the brown paper tablecloth.

A Greener Christmas
Dressing the holiday dining table with brown paper goes perfectly with fresh foliage and berries from the garden. I have Nandina Domestica growing in my garden and the red berries produced by this plant resemble holly berries. But there are plenty of other types of foliage you can snip off a few branches, blue gum being the most popular and also give the table a beautiful scent.

Kid-Friendly Holiday Table
And last, but not least, let's not forget about the kiddies table. Putting down a brown paper covering gives the kids and opportunity to keep themselves occupied while the adults enjoy their festive celebration. Kit out the table with plenty of crayons or colouring-in pens and let them do their own thing.
