You are now visiting our lakeside log cabin home in The Northwoods of Wisconsin where it’s a winter wonderland.
If you’ve followed me for a even a little while then you know plaid is my “favorite color” and I like to incorporate it into my decor in every season. This Christmas I styled a Mad for Plaid tablescape. I have plaid placemats, plaid trees in my centerpiece, plaid plates and even plaid glasses.
Plaid Placemats
I found these pretty green plaid placemats at Hobby Lobby last year. I loved the green color and thought they worked well in the cabin other times besides Christmas too.
I love mixing plaids of different colors and different patterns.
I used three placemats down the middle of the table to be a runner.
Plaid Trees
I used these plaid trees and other elements from this table for my Cozy Christmas Coffee Bar. You can see all the details in this post.
Plaid Plates
I love to mix and match plates of different colors and patterns. I knew I wanted to use these plaid plates in my stack and then matched them with a red and white transferware pattern.
I found the plaid plates a few years ago at Pier 1. I typically keep my decor for a very long time, if not forever choosing pieces that stand the test of time. And plaids are a timeless pattern and will never go out of style.
These mini bread boards make a cute addition.
On top of the bread boards I added antique metal cups to use as a candle holder. I filled the bottom with fresh cranberries and then put a battery votive candle on top. It gave the whole table a soft glow.
Plaid Glasses
These glasses are one of my favorite finds in the past few years. They are new, not vintage, but they are made by a favorite company for much of my vintage glassware, Anchor Hocking. I found them at Walmart. They are heavy and solid and sturdy and the pattern on them looks like a plaid.
Then I put a red and white stripped napkin inside the glass spilling out like a flower.

Kristin, this is terrific. I also love tartans and your finds are enviable! Love the placemats, the plates AND the glassware! You’re right in that your tartans will forever remain timeless style in your cabin abode, alongside the mix and match of the transferware. Vintage love there! Have a happy holiday season. THe great news of having a large family like yours is that you will always have a crowd ! COVID has got nothing on you This Christmas!
Debbee M says
Kristin, such a festive and fun table for the holiday season! I especially like how you mixed plaids with the candy cane stripes in the napkins — which look great tucked in the glasses. And, those small bread boards with the votives at each place setting are really special and unique. It all looks like a Christmas card set in your gorgeous log cabin home,
Rachelle says
I’ve got a thing for tartan plaids, and used them this year in my table for Christmas. It’s amazing how well they work with different designs and themes. Your table is charming, and has such a cozy vintage vibe to it. It’s always a treat visiting your blog.
Merry Christmas

Kristin, I always enjoy a visit to your lakeside home during any season, especially when there is snow. I am a fan of plaids and you mix them so well. It would be a delight to sit at your cozy and festive table. Wishing you a joyous Christmas season!

Such a lovely post. The cabin looks so pretty with all of the snow. It truly looks like a Christmas card.
The Tartan plaid is lovely. Those plaid trees and placemats are darling. Rustic bread boards and votives are a nice touch. A warm, cozy feeling looking at your pretty table. happy Holidays

Kristin, Plaid and wood….always a winning combination, especially for the Wisconsin Northwoods. I am in love with your plaid trees pictured in your coffee/muffin buffet and tablescape. So perfect for all of the other wonderful plaid going on in your tablescape. The little wooden boards on each individual place setting speaks volumes. And who cannot forget tealights and cranberries! The striped napkins add such a sweetness to all of the coziness! Merry Christmas to you and your family.

Kristen, You have outdone yourself again! Love love the darling plaid fabric trees in varying sizes. Your transferware plates and breadboards and stripe napkins in your glasses look so festive in your cozy room.
Wishing you a very happy Christmas to you and your family.
Chloe says
Kristin, Plaid is a favorite of mine and I have SO been wanting to do all plaid holiday decor, but something or another keeps popping up. Next Year! I have stashed away so many plaid ribbons from after Christmas sales. Your plaid placemats set the scene for your table, and how lovely the plaid plates are with the sweet little bread boards and those candles! Anyone would love to sit down to this table and enjoy the warm ambiance! Your home is like a Hallmark movie set that I would love to step into! Wishing you and your family a wonderful, safe and happy Christmas!
Sandra Garth says
Happy holidays Kristin! As much as I don’t like snow, even after living here in Michigan all my life your opening picture is beautiful. Your table is styled perfectly for your environment and is super cozy, The coffee bar and the wreaths with the lanterns make a big impact. The antique metal cups with the light and cranberries add lots of warmth. I’ve promised myself that I wasn’t going to buy any more glasses. however, After seeing these plaid glasses on another blog also I am determined to find them. Please don’t tell my daughters :). Have a Merry Christmas and I wish the best for you and your family now and in the coming year.
