Christmas table

I like to show you my Christmas table. Yes, I know it is a little early and we haven't even had Thanksgiving dinner, but I like to get a head start on Christmas. I already have my cute little tree up, so I couldn't resist decorating the rest of the house for Christmas. Now, jeep in mind, this design comes from items I already own or were given to me.Let's start with the centerpiece....

 You may have seen this little guy in other posts, but I reuse him again and again simply because red is great for more than one holiday, think Forth of July, Valentine's day and just about any patriotic holiday red is my go to color. For Christmas however, this little bouquet needed something more, so I added a few thin Candy Canes my mother gave me. Also notice the vase, it is actually made from a recycled jar and an old sweater!

 Here's a little peek at the quilt. I love this quilt, I use it a lot. I will never tire of polka dots.

Here's a little close-up of the dishware; would you believe I received the entire set for FREE! One year I hosted Thanksgiving dinner, but I didn't have any dishware, so I asked for dishes on freecycle.org and was given this entire set! Ask and you shall receive! Thank you so much!

 The entire set is rimed in 25 carat gold. What a blessing!

 

Real candy canes are best, but they wouldn't last very long at my house! 

Happy Planning!
