Silent Night Holiday Table

I have had these little cardboard houses for years and finally put them together for this table. It’s a really simple centerpiece–just the 3 houses and the church, along with some mercury glass and porcelain trees, and a couple strands of shiny brite glass garland in pale blues, golds, and white. So serene, like aContinue reading “Silent Night Holiday Table”

Glass Blower’s Holiday

When we have traveled, we have picked up Christmas ornaments, including some handblown ornaments. I also have found 2 really beautiful vases/bowls in my thrifting adventures, so I put together a table using these items. I put the Vietri bowl and the handkerchief vase on the table and added faux greenery, the hand blown ornamentsContinue reading “Glass Blower’s Holiday”

To convert the table from Thanksgiving toContinue reading “And A Partridge in a Pear Tree”

Thrifted Christmas

We are going to use the den in the basement for a lot of our holiday activities, so I have been on the lookout for some additional holiday decor while I have been out thrifting. Our oldest was here over Thanksgiving with his fiancee, and was talking about how he wouldn’t be able to decorateContinue reading “Thrifted Christmas”

Ralph Lauren Christmas Table

Apparently, this is the look of the season, so, of course, I had to give it a whirl. I had everything in the photos, except for the brass deer. I started with a blue oxford tablecloth (that was made years ago from a Ralph Lauren flat sheet) and topped it with a Pendleton wool throwContinue reading “Ralph Lauren Christmas Table”
