We are just a week away from Christmas! I have the perfect thing that you can serve for brunch or really anytime of the day! You know that I am all about the easy when it comes to entertaining. 

Christmas Brunch Board

This month for our Pinterest Challenge, we are sharing ideas for creating a holiday buffet!

Welcome to another installment of our monthly Pinterest Challenges hosted by my sweet friend, Cindy, from County Road 407. 

IF YOU ARE NEW TO THE PINTEREST CHALLENGE, HERE ARE THE DETAILS!

  • each month Cindy selects a photo for inspiration online that we will recreate
  • the owner of the photo has graciously given us permission to give our spin on the project
  • you will receive numerous ideas that you can replicate in your home to keep things fresh

This month's inspiration comes from Celebrations at Home. Be sure to visit. The photos and entertaining ideas are fabulous! 

My twist on the whole buffet/bar this round is a little different. I love coffee table entertaining especially with charcuterie boards. So my buffet is in the form of a Brunch Board.

I've been eyeing this board from Pier 1 for many months now from when I first saw it at The Reluctant Entertainer's site. I finally snagged it with a Black Friday sale. I am totally in love with it and have already used 3 times!

Large Serving Tray

tray

Isn't it gorgeous! Now, it's not food safe. You'll want to put your food on dishes, napkins, towels or place pieces of parchment paper. This board is really large and heavier once filled.

tablecloth

I removed everything from the coffee table the day before. I used a pretty tablecloth. It's too large for this coffee table, but that's perfectly fine. Just rumple it up and place it evenly on the table. The excess can just puddle on the floor with the edges curved under. 

tray

I love mixing fabrics. I took 2 holiday napkins and arranged them like this. You'll see that this is where the crackers and muffins will rest. You could also use pretty tea towels.

tray

I planned on paper what I wanted to prepare for my Christmas Brunch Board.

  • Ham Delight sandwiches
  • fruit kabobs
  • veggies
  • hummus
  • almonds
  • blueberry muffins
  • triscuits
  • spinach dip
  • kisses
  • orange juice
  • champagne

Then I go and select dishes and bowls to serve the goodies.

board

This isn't set in stone of course. You can adjust as you go. Then before guests arrive, I remove the bowls and plates and fill them. 

The only recipe that I prepared was for the Ham Delight Sandwiches. I've been making these for years. They are truly the best for lunch, with soups, for breakfasts, tailgates and more.

christmas brunch tray

I am all about easy entertaining that looks fabulous. Can you see why I LOVE this board. I am so glad that I splurged on it. We will use it so much. You'll notice that the triscuits and muffins spill onto the napkins.

christmas brunch board

Hummus, spinach dip and muffins can be picked up ready-made. 

food

The Ham Delights are the main dish item here so I elevated them so they'd be front and center. 

Creating high and low spots on your board creates depth.

food

Let the edges of the napkin spill over the sides so you can see the pretty pattern. 

food

I placed the Christmas Brunch Board in the center of the coffee table. This way there is plenty of area around to place plates and glasses as your catch up with your guests. 

food

Coffee table entertaining is casual and conducive to conversation. The food and drink is here in one cozy spot. 

food

I used my fine china salad plates here. They are the perfect size for nibbles. 

I added a few cranberries to each flute. Fill with preferred self-serve amount of oj and champagne to create your mimosa.  

food

Fill bare spots with fresh greens and berries. You can get these at most grocery stores during the season, but I clipped mine from the yard. We planted a leyland cypress years ago so I could use clippings during the holidays. 

food

This white rectangular tray is perfect for holding the bottles of oj and champagne. It will collect any spills. It had a little extra room on it so I let the muffins spill onto it and added cranberries for color or enjoying. 

food

Fruit kabobs are easy to make with these wooden skewers. 

Most of the food here came from Aldi so it's also an affordable spread. 

food

Kisses also fill in blank areas on the board and add a fun treat. Notice the details of the tray. It does have cut in handles on each side for carrying. The tray takes things up a level opposed to just placing the items on the table.

    Your sandwiches sound SO delicious! Lots of good menu ideas. I must try them soon. You are very brave to serve cranberries & chocolate on your beautiful cream sofa! I mistakenly thought our hosting days were behind us when we last moved & had our furniture redone in off white! I no longer serve chocolate anything! LOL

    Oh my goodness! Your brunch board is beautiful!!! I think I’ll steal some of these ideas for this weekend as I was thinking of where I’d put snacks to nibble for when friends come over. Perfection!!! <3

    Have a wonderful Christmas,
    Barb 🙂

    Love how some of the elements are spilling out, Christy. A beautifully colored array arranged so artistically. Great idea to have the whole tray on the coffee table to sit and munch. This hop is making me hungry!

    Christy your Brunch Board is magnificent! I’ve never thought to add cranberries to the bottom of glasses for Mimosa’s but I love it! Can hardly wait to try this Christmas morning. May have to make sure it works out ahead of time. 😉 Really love the look of your tray too. Those tucked in greens make all the difference don’t they?! Thank you so much for putting in the effort to join us today. It really means a lot.

    That tray is gorgeous. It is huge and a it’s a wonderful place to put a food bar. I’m making those sliders for Christmas brunch. They will go perfectly with our waffles.
    Thanks for sharing.

Thanks so much for all the comments and suggestion Thanks so much for all the comments and suggestions about my back yesterday. I did absolutely nothing and rested it. I slept better last night, and it's much better today. Last year on this very day, I posted our winter mantel. I loved this look. We enjoyed it so much throughout January. Keep on using your fresh greenery and twinkle lights if it makes you happy! Going through old ideas has me inspired to spruce up our mantel. Sadly, I haven't really done anything to it since Christmas. I went straight from putting up Christmas to painting the mudroom! Have a cozy evening! Visit the blog with the link in bio @oursouthernhome Just type in WINTER MANTEL in the search bar.

This New thrift store makeover post almost didn’ This New thrift store makeover post almost didn’t happen! It’s the first one of the new year! I was 1/2 way through the project while simultaneously painting the mud room cabinets. Down on the floor painting lower cabinets and twisted a certain way which did something to my lower back/hip. Ugh!!!! I got it done with the help of @ashlyn_little ⭐️ I couldn’t sleep and currently on heating pad. I’m going to be useless today! Any remedy ideas? I’ve got to get back to painting! I can’t take things in disarray. Lol! I’ll be working on the laptop in bed today I guess and checking out the other projects from my blogging friends! Link in bio and stories to the blog post!

Happy New Year & Wednesday friends! @bentleywestie Happy New Year & Wednesday friends! @bentleywestie  here! My grandma has taken a little break from social media and the blog to enjoy time with us before Woods and Ashlyn started classes back at Clemson. Personally...I’m ready to see her get out of sweats and put some makeup on! She did finally get all the Christmas packed away. With the tree gone, I’ve got my other bed back in the den! I think she’s coming off a sugar high. She mentioned that all the Hershey kisses were gone. Oh, well! Things are getting back to normal around here! Maybe they’ll get me a haircut!

I’ve been wanting a pair of sequin pants FOREVER I’ve been wanting a pair of sequin pants FOREVER! I wore them for the first time out Saturday night for our anniversary dinner! @lovechicos Now I want to wear them all the time! They are so comfy, stretchy, lightweight and just freaking fabulous! ❤️ Paired them with a sweater from @amazonfashion so it toned the look down a bit. I felt dressy casual. I’m also going to be wearing them with a white sweatshirt and tennis shoes! Life is too short.....So wear the sequins! Follow me on the LIKEtoKNOW.it shopping app to get the product details for this look and others http://liketk.it/34KjY #liketkit @liketoknow.it #LTKNewYear #StayHomeWithLTK

You’ll find me here all day in pajamas. That’s You’ll find me here all day in pajamas. That’s right! I’m not doing a darn thing today. I always lounge the day after Christmas to recoup after days of cooking. After Christmas is when I can finally relax a bit and enjoy the beauty of the season. I finally watched Little Women this morning and loved. Now I’m watching season 2 of Virgin River. How are you spending your Saturday? I’ll be getting dressed later this evening for our anniversary dinner. #31years tomorrow! 🥂

Today is the BIG 52! Gulp! It’s been a cozy Chri Today is the BIG 52! Gulp! It’s been a cozy Christmas Eve Birthday with my family. I’ll admit, it’s been a busy day of chores, but it’s been extra special because the kids are both home with us. Hunkering in for the evening. Here’s a tip when you’re wanting to feel put together at home. @spanx faux leather leggings work dressed up or down! Add a pair of @isotoner.us ballet slippers and you can fake a ballet flat at home! Over the knee boots and scarf are Amazon finds. I’ll be linking the look in the #liketoknowit app soon. Merry Christmas Eve!
