in A small house, and a christmas dinner for a large group of people to organize is: how do you do it?
no matter How small the space is a table, you need to, and anyway, they are Rein Rambaldo, the managing director of The Hospitality industry, Factory, restaurants design, and stylet. “Make some room on the table. Stack of rather have no furniture, just peel them off such as a table, or a clumsy table. To put it in another space, or outside with a tarp over it.”
For a table jumps out, and gives a lot of coziness into the room as the guests were coming in, takes Rambaldo. “One advantage of using a table is that you can find, for example, have a drink, to sit. Decorate the table nicely, and you can always take some away from the shelf. Keep your visitors stuck for money.”
“A-can-eat buffet is also an option,” says interior stylist Conny de Bresser. “Guests will be able to, for example, food in the sink, grab it and look for a place. However, I do think that the majority of people, however, would like to have a table to eat on Christmas day.”
No tables? That will make you
Maybe you do not have suitable table for you. The two consultants have the tips for you. “Rent a behangtafel in a store”, tap Rambaldo. “It’s a wooden blade with two panels. Do you have a nice table cloth on it, and you’re good to go. You can also use a bed sheet to use and decorate, or let the kids do it.”
“another option is to take a door off its hinges, it says that The Bresser. “Put a support under it, you can get it for a small price at a hardware store to buy it. A door can easily be put up with eight people in it.”
finally, Something that is also a space save, it is a bank that is on the table, the wall, likes to say that The Bresser. “The chairs on both sides, to take up a lot more space, and often may be, there are quite a few people on a couch. Or invest in a dinner table.”
do you have enough chairs? Rambaldo: Buy some cheap folding chairs, place cushions on it. That looks like fun.”
American-style diner, or a single type
so what do you do with the food itself? How do you keep it simple? “In order to reduce the cost and doesn’t have all the time in the kitchen, it is useful to think of the dinner as his Us to do,” said Rambaldo. “Then, all of a small dish with it. You have a great meal, you’re in the middle of the table and make a move. That makes bowls and other stuff.”
“to Create a plain christmas tree kersttakken in order to save disk space.”
Conny de Bresser, interior stylist
For people who have a lack of crockery, The Bresser is still a lot of tips. “I think it’s a beautiful thing when it is on the flat-plate a deep plate or a bowl,” says interior stylist. “But you can also be a very good starter and a dessert in a glass showcase, or even in the closet. Borrow, if necessary, the tableware from friends or family members. Another option is to use plates and cutlery in between to wash up.”
strong> A flat tree on the wall < / p> the christmas decorations, the candles, the kerststukjes… nice, but it takes up space. Especially the christmas tree. For this purpose, The Bresser is a good solution. “To create a plain christmas tree. This is done by kersttakken up against a wall, and is thus in the form of a tree to make it. You can make it any size you want, and even have lights in them to do that.”
on the table, you can kersttakken, or a piece of make tips to them. A better idea is to have a couple of nice kersttakken top of the table and to hang some lights in it. Then it’s out of the way, but you’ll have to do a lot of the atmosphere.”
In a small room with a lot of people are advising The Bresser not to place too many candles on it. “It creates a lot of heat, and is also not as safe. Make sure to pick up your “drop” is not in the walkway, is perfect if you have children. A waxinelichthouder, it is the most safe and secure.”

Trend: the garden < / p> finally, A trend that both the advisers will enter in the Christmas is in the winter barbecue. Rambaldo: “in A very surprising way, and will be useful in the limited space available. Pull out of the garden, buurttuin, or in the park. Heat lamps, and high top tables are easy to rent and ask the guests to get warm clothes on to do it.”
“it may not be The most obvious, but it’s a nice option,” says Bresser. “It’s good if you have a small housed you. And, of course, a lot of the atmosphere. All the way, with bonfires and mulled wine, too.”
