A quiet, elegant evening setting inspired by simplicity, storytelling, and the soft glow of an Australian dusk.
There’s something undeniably magical about a Christmas table for two. No pressure, no formality — just a gentle moment to slow down, exhale, and celebrate the season in a way that feels personal and beautifully unhurried.
For this second setting in our Christmas styling series, we created a twilight ‘Supper for Two’ using some of our favourite pieces from Provincial Home Living. Set beside the pool at golden hour, the table became a little vignette of calm: soft linen, warm brass, sculptural candles, and the kind of delicate touches that make dinner feel like a gift.
Creating Comfort, Coziness & Quiet Luxury
This mini tablescape came together with an emphasis on texture and tone — natural linen, rattan, creamy whites, brushed brass, and flickers of candlelight. Everything was chosen to feel effortless but elevated, grounding the setting in a way we felt married Australian Country House and Provincial Home Living: classic, timeless, and gently romantic.
A Quiet Christmas Moment
What we loved most about this setting was its simplicity. You don’t need a long table, an elaborate menu, or a guest list of ten to create something beautiful. Sometimes the most memorable gatherings are the smallest ones — a supper shared with someone you adore, a soft breeze, candlelight reflecting off the pool, and the sound of crickets singing below your feet.
As the sun dropped behind the hills and the candle flames grew brighter, the whole table seemed to exhale.
It felt like a reminder that Christmas can be gentle, slow, intentional and grounded in connection.
