This year\u2019s big reveal includes trends like \u201cGrandpa Chic\u201d and \u201cGingerbread Girl\u201d\u2014terms that sound a <em>little<\/em> made up. But when you look closely at the materials and objects that encompass each trendline, they begin to mirror the styles that design pros are gravitating toward.<\/p>\n<p>In speaking with <em>Vogue<\/em> stylist-turned-interior designer <a href=\"https:\/\/www.chusedandco.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Jenna Chused<\/a> (who recently opened the shop, Antik, in Brooklyn Heights) and <a href=\"https:\/\/fawngalli.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Fawn Galli<\/a>, who designs showrooms for retailers and interiors for a roster of NYC clients, the decor they\u2019re loving for the holidays echo some of the styles that pop up in Etsy\u2019s findings.<\/p>\n<p>Read on for the biggest trends these three design experts are seeing this season, to help you style everything from your <a href=\"https:\/\/food52.com\/shop\/holiday\/thanksgiving\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Thanksgiving<\/a> table to your <a href=\"https:\/\/food52.com\/shop\/holiday\/holiday-decor-50073a6f-60f5-45ee-8947-8780c8f9cffd\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">holiday<\/a> mantle.<\/p>\n<h3>Pottery &amp; Ceramics<\/h3>\n<p>Handmade pottery is the most popular design trend that Fawn Galli is seeing right now.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA lot of designers are making beautiful, different ceramics as sculpture or for flowers. It can be kind of high or low, but I\u2019m seeing a lot of that,\u201d said Fawn.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOrganic-shaped, handmade ceramics are very big,\u201d echoed Jenna. She\u2019s seeing people use these sculptures for more than just typical centerpieces, too. \u201cIt\u2019s not like a floral display anymore. It&#8217;s more about branches and just a little bit of something that is long and tall in these vessels. And that&#8217;s a beautiful way to do Thanksgiving\u2014 minimal florals in beautiful vessels.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3>Lots of Texture<\/h3>\n<p>For interiors that trend toward natural and organic materials, Fawn likes to lean into texture. To do that on a holiday table, she reaches for woven tablecloths and placemats, flatware and tableware made from different materials, and pebbled glassware, as you can see in the <a href=\"https:\/\/food52.com\/collections\/4648584-thanksgiving-table\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Thanksgiving tablescape<\/a> pieces she curated from our Shop.<\/p>\n<h3>Dark Woods &amp; Rich Jewel Tones<\/h3>\n<p>I asked Jenna if she identified with the idea that color is the new neutral. \u201cThat is very much my design philosophy. My favorite neutral is burgundy with taupe.\u201d Dinnerware in different colors and colored glassware also appeal to her. (See all of her <a href=\"https:\/\/food52.com\/collections\/4648584-thanksgiving-table\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Thanksgiving table decor<\/a> selections from our Shop.)<\/p>\n<p>Dark colors and jewel tones speak to Etsy\u2019s \u201cGrandpa Chic\u201d trend in particular. Following the popular \u201cGrandmillenial\u201d style that emphasized family heirlooms, and TikTok-famous grandmas like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@brunchwithbabs\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">@brunchwithbabs<\/a>, \u201cright now, it\u2019s time for grandpa to shine,\u201d says Dayna. \u201cWe are seeing a more masculine touch to things, and I think that&#8217;s because more traditional decor aesthetics are coming back. So we&#8217;re saying goodbye to the Scandinavian, very light woods and saying hello to cherries, and all these very rich [woods]\u201d in cutting boards and serving bowls.<\/p>\n<h3>Colored Glassware<\/h3>\n<p>Colored glassware is not necessarily new\u2014\u201cthat has been around for a while,\u201d says Fawn. \u201cBut I love it. I see it. I use it a lot.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI love smoked glass,\u201d echoed Jenna. \u201cIf you can use a smoked glass for your everyday glasses and have enough that you can use for a party too, it adds a lot of depth to your table.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3>Everyday, Elevated Entertaining<\/h3>\n<p>\u201cIf you think about where we&#8217;ve been in the last couple of years of entertaining, there was a lot of safety,\u201d says Dayna. \u201cThere was a lot of precaution. There was a lot of disposable, single-use items.\u201d Now, that\u2019s largely in the rearview mirror, which means any night of the week is fair game for a beautiful tablescape.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt doesn&#8217;t matter if it&#8217;s Tuesday, if it&#8217;s Hanukkah, if it&#8217;s Christmas, I want to showcase my beautiful servingware all the time. We&#8217;re seeing a rise in beautiful, vintage glassware and serving ware and anything handmade because it is special every day.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3>Mantlescaping<\/h3>\n<p>Like creating a personal tablescape, \u201cmantlescaping\u201d is a not-so-new word that encompasses all the nostalgic and new holiday decor one might mix together on a mantle. But according to Etsy, you don\u2019t really need a mantle to pull this off. Your windowsill, the TV table\u2014any blank surface can be used to \u201cbring all these beautiful things to life and show off your personal style,\u201d said Dayna.<\/p>\n<p>This could mean candlesticks, a decor object that Jenna is particularly fond of\u2014as long as they\u2019re sculptural. That way, \u201cit looks just as good with the candle <em>not<\/em> in it.\u201d She likes to use black and chocolate candles with brass candlesticks.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI&#8217;m using candlesticks that look like trees,\u201d Fawn said of her Thanksgiving decor plans. Their natural look will tie into the fall leaves she adds to her table.<\/p>\n<h3>Lean into Vintage &amp; Tradition<\/h3>\n<p>My favorite \u201ctrend\u201d that Etsy calls out this season is \u201cGingerbread Girl.\u201d For inspiration, Dayna gives full credit to this year\u2019s \u201cTomato Girl Summer\u201d meme, which embraced making the most of downtime and luxuriating in the outdoors, unplugged. Etsy\u2019s new, holiday-inspired spin on this theme celebrates the act of putting down your phone in favor of coming together in the kitchen, to bake and make beautiful dinners (accented with traditional pieces like checkered napkins, of course).<\/p>\n<p>Jenna also adds some traditional pieces to her table in the form of vintage servingware. \u201cSometimes when I host a big party and I don&#8217;t have enough in my normal day-to-day silverware to host everyone, I&#8217;ll find old big cases of vintage silverware.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Which leads us to the last takeaway\u2026<\/p>\n<h3>Mix &amp; Match Styles To Create Your Own<\/h3>\n<p>Jenna likes to play with different patterns on the table, within reason. \u201cI don\u2019t want it to look like a flea market,\u201d she said. Mixing different napkins with different placemats, and having a runner that ties it all together is one way to do this.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI say things should go [together]\u2014they shouldn&#8217;t match,\u201d said Fawn. And when you lean into a more maximalist approach to table setting, \u201cit becomes very unique and personal.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Making your table or home a reflection of your tastes is ultimately the goal. \u201cI think people are really doing what appeals to them,\u201d said Jenna. Given how quickly trends change and then circle back, she added, \u201cI think it\u2019s more acceptable to do what you like because everything\u2019s moving so fast.\u201d<\/p>\n<h4>More from Food52<\/h4>\n<hr class=\"divider--ornament\"\/>\n<p>              <center><br \/>\n<em>How do you like to style your home and table for the holidays?
