A CHRISTMAS TABLE OR TWO

0




The presents are wrapped, the cards are mailed, the cookies are baked and the guests are arriving shortly. Time to set the table. If you haven’t begin to think about setting the Christmas table, here are a few creative possibilities for you. You may already have some of these items just waiting in a cupboard. Maybe you have time to make a napkin ring. Or an idea that you can save for later. Time to polish the silver…

Christmas Eve Dinner


 A little casual place setting...


 A vintage Santa sleigh and reindeer centerpiece...


 Simple napkin rings...


A red paper luminary to invite you to sit and stay awhile...




Drill a hole through a wine cork, thread a few wood cranberry beads on a ribbon...

Christmas Dinner


 Simple, but elegant...




 Children's engraved flatware and baby cups tied with a velvet ribbon to the garland...






New Year’s Eve Dinner


 Classic clock plates and a noise maker...

 

 A crystal garland on a black runner...

 

 An etched star wineglass for New Year wishes...



Vellum take out boxes with an electric votive glows past midnight...


Wishing you a table full of family, friends, guests and good memories. Happy Happy!
