The perfect, play-filled festive table

For many of us, the holiday season is something that inspires us to get creative and let loose. Sometimes that’s in the kitchen, but sometimes that’s in the way we present the food too. Here’s how you (and the kids) can create a setting for your festive meals that everyone will love.

Colouring in the tablecloth

Looking for an arty gift? Our whole MÅLA range is made especially for mini-Picassos, with design adapted to ensure they’re safe and easy to use in smaller hands. No worries if they stray a little outside the lines, either – the colours we use are completely non-toxic and wash out quickly. So they’re perfect for making a pretty table decoration like this one!

A beige-coloured AINA pillow is placed on a rattan AGEN chair that stands inside a dark blue living room.

Easy to move, extra-comfy

This AGEN chair is handwoven from rattan, a renewable material that’s lightweight and easy to move from the living room to the table when you’re expecting extra dinner guests. Combine it with this AINA cushion to make sure whoever gets the spare seat is extra-comfy regardless.

A black table is set with light-coloured dinnerware and natural accessories, including pinecones and sticks.

Nice and natural

Dressing up your table a little can make a big impact. Low-effort additions, like patterned paper and pinecones you’ve picked up on walks can turn everyday favourites, including these VARDAGEN plates and POKAL glasses, into a super-special dinner setting.

An extendable black NORDVIKEN table stands in a light-coloured room, set ready for the festive meal to come.

Plenty of room for everyone

What do you call a normal-looking dining table that’s secretly super-sized? Well, this one’s named NORDVIKEN. It hides two extension leaves under its surface that can be easily put into place by one person on their own – meaning you can get everything set up before Grandma, Grandpa or anyone else makes an appearance.
