Transform your holiday table into a stage of color, light, and personality.
When your stars are two deer dressed in blush and fuchsia matte, crowned with gold antlers like modern holiday royalty, you don’t just decorate a table — you create a scene. It’s whimsical, unexpected, and just a little bit glamorous, the kind of look that makes guests stop mid-step and say, “Well, this is different.”

Styling Extras
- 2 Box-shaped risers (painted metallic gold)
- Assorted gold, pink, clear, and teal ornaments
- Gold satin sheet (base layer)
- White crushed velvet runner* (top layer)
- Pastel pink beverage napkins (set on the diagonal)

*Tip: If you can’t find white crushed velvet, don’t stress. Panne fabric is a perfect stand-in.
Forget predictable reds and greens. This story is told in jewel tones: periwinkle, teal, blush, and gold. The deer set the mood — one soft and serene, the other bold and confident — while faceted glass cone trees rise behind them like glittering towers. Together, they frame the stage with a mix of pastel dreaminess and jewel-box sparkle.
The table is anchored with a runner of crushed white velvet, layered with snowy white glitterball sprays tucked beneath scattered ornaments. Gold, frosted pink, teal, and iridescent spheres shimmer against the textured surface, while a thread of cool white fairy lights adds energy and glow.
A Seat in the Story
Even the place settings echo the palette. Rolled napkins tied with periwinkle ribbon nod to the glass trees, while soft blush beverage napkins pick up the color of the deer. Set on the diagonal, they mirror the diamond pattern of the cone trees, linking the table edges back to the centerpiece. Gold flatware finishes the look, tying everything to those gleaming antlers.
This isn’t about repeating tradition; it’s about reshaping it with a little imagination.
Why It Works
- Contrast with Cohesion: Matte deer against glossy glass trees. Warm gold alongside cool periwinkle. It’s the balance that makes it sing.
- Whimsy in Check: Pink deer bring the fun, while a limited palette and refined finishes keep it chic.
- Conversation Starter: Every element has something to notice—from the bold deer in the spotlight to the sparkle tucked between ornaments.
The Experience
The effect goes beyond decoration. The centerpiece turns the holiday table into a jewel-toned wonderland where tradition takes on a fresh face. It feels festive, a little daring, and absolutely unforgettable.
Because sometimes the best holiday stories are the ones no one saw coming.
