Indigo is a fresh and modern design color this year. Yet indigo decorating has been popular for thousands of years. It is found in ancient pottery from China as well as Dutch Delftware, which originated in the 1500s. History shows indigo is a fabulous color for all seasons.

If you’re looking to incorporate a new color to your holiday table, indigo blue is a great choice. It works for Thanksgiving, as well as Christmas and Hanukkah. Accessorize it right and you can also reuse your indigo tabletop decor in the summer, too.

Here are some chic, modern indigo decorating ideas to enjoy a true blue holiday table.
