In the theme of festive tablescapes and Christmas decor, strive to be eco-conscious and sustainable as you deck the halls this year. "Forage" for Christmas decor by snagging sprigs of evergreen from your tree and pine cones from nearby parks. Play beeswax-based candles throughout your home and dining table (as opposed to their paraffin counterparts). Purchase recycled baubles and LED lights, and strive to use the same sets each year. Avoid paper plates and plastic cutlery wherever possible.
They're all small, simple choices, but they can make a world of difference. Not to mention, sprigs of greenery and warm, glowing candles are far cosier and more charming than glittering, plastic reindeer.
